a unique global partnership of five institutions dedicated to ending extreme poverty, increasing shared prosperity and promoting sustainable development.With 189 member countries and more than 130 offices worldwide, we work with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges.For more information, please visit Regional Context The World Bank Group serves 30 client countries in the Latin America and the Caribbean Region (LCR).Clients range from large rapidly growing middle-income clients to IDA countries to small Caribbean states to one fragile state.Despite immense resources, dynamic societies, and an average annual per capita income of about $4,000, deep inequalities persist in most LCR countries, with nearly a quarter of the Region's people living in poverty.The Bank's strategy in LCR is focused on five pillars:(a) stimulating growth and improving competitiveness.(b) reducing poverty and inequality.(c) making governments and institutions work for people.(d) providing a platform for addressing global issues (climate change, gender, trade, disease, migration), and(e) reducing risk, whether from extreme weather events, climate change, crime and violence or other.Country Unit and Position Context Brazil's real GDP grew by 3.4 percent in ****, driven by robust private consumption, bolstered by a tight labor market and fiscal stimulus through expanded social transfers, and by recovering investment.The poverty rate declined from 23.4 to 20.6 percent (US$8.30 per day, **** PPP) in ****, supported by a strong labor market.GDP growth is projected to moderate to 2.4 percent in ****, as private consumption growth slows amid reduced government transfers, and rising household indebtedness.Elevated interest rates and global uncertainty are expected to weigh on investment and exports.Inflation is projected to gradually decline to 4.2 percent by ****.Ensuring fiscal sustainability remains a critical challenge.Despite efforts to raise revenues and contain spending, additional measures are needed to reinforce fiscal credibility, while budget rigidity and the large share of indexed expenditures continue to limit policy flexibility .Limited fiscal space will also constrain poverty reduction efforts, with the poverty rate expected to reach 19.9 percent by ****.Brazil's medium-term growth outlook is positive but constrained, with recent structural reforms improving the business environment, the financial sector, and indirect taxation, and expected to raise potential output to about 2.5 percent.However, achieving faster, more inclusive, long-term growth will require further reforms to enhance competitiveness, reduce financial and market distortions, expand infrastructure investment, integrate into global value chains, and improve the quality of education.A more adverse external environment, prolonged monetary tightening, and a slower-than-expected fiscal consolidation could undermine growth prospects and exacerbate debt vulnerabilities.Role & Responsibilities: •Drive office vehicles for the transport of authorized personnel and delivery and collection of mail, documents and other items;
