Geneve, Schweiz World Economic Forum LLC Vollzeit

Why we are recruiting

The Forum provides a unique platform for stakeholders to coalesce around purpose-driven agendas aimed to address global macro trends and opportunities. It engages the foremost political, business and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas.

Institutional Communities and the International Business Council

The institutional communities of the Forum are comprised of global business leaders who aspire to be vanguards in bringing value to all their stakeholders. The communities convene influential CEOs and Chairpersons, represented respectively in the International Business Council (IBC) and Community of Chairpersons (CoC). Leaders in these communities have an unparalleled opportunity to catalyse systems change, by being early-movers, signalling ambitious goals and commitments to the global business civil-society and political community, while acting as vanguard businesses that drive for long-term value creation.

The International Business Council was created in 2001, in response to a request from chief executive officers from all industries and regions for a cross-industry, cross-regional group for in-depth peer exchange on global issues. Since then, the IBC has become a globally relevant community that acts as the anchor group and voice for stakeholder responsibility and demonstrates engagement, action and global citizenship through its individual and collective actions. One of the Community’s current projects is the Transforming Energy Demand Initiative, which works on the opportunity to accelerate the transition to an energy system that balances sustainability, security and just transition.
