Our Mission:

At Ethical Investor, our mission is to raise awareness about unethical corporations that misuse capital raised from the stock market — funding products, services, or operations that contribute to war crimes and genocide (such as those in Gaza or Ukraine), finance or support human rights violations, or engage in business practices that harm the environment and society.



What We Do:

The Ethical Investor App empowers individuals to invest with integrity. It identifies companies investors should avoid, ensuring their money does not support unethical or harmful business activities.



About Ethical Investor:

Ethical Investor is a values-driven fintech platform available on Web, iOS, and Android. We help investors build portfolios that align with Islamic finance principles and global ethical standards.

Our platform analyzes companies using a unique blend of Shariah screening, ESG benchmarks, and humanitarian impact assessments, giving investors the insights they need to make responsible and ethical investment decisions.



Our Vision:

We are preparing to launch the Ethical Investor App on the App Store and Google Play, driven by a single vision — to build a better, more conscious investment culture where people worldwide invest only in ethical companies that promote peace, fairness, and sustainability.



Role Overview:

We are seeking multiple Research Interns to assist with equity screening and Shariah-compliant portfolio research. This internship/volunteer work is more than just data work — it’s a chance to directly participate in our mission of creating a positive global impact by making ethical investing accessible to everyone.



Responsibilities:

  • Conduct equity screening of companies using Shariah compliance criteria (financial ratios, revenue sources, debt levels, etc.).
  • Assist in building and updating Shariah-compliant watchlists and portfolio models.
  • Research and summarize ESG and ethical considerations alongside Shariah compliance.
  • Prepare structured reports to highlight companies that meet (or fail) compliance standards.
  • Contribute to the refinement of our app’s screening and analysis framework.



Training & Support:

  • Comprehensive training will be provided in Shariah-compliant finance, ESG research, and company analysis.
  • Interns will be mentored by experienced traders, analysts, and fintech professionals.
  • You will gain practical, hands-on experience in research, analysis, and ethical finance frameworks.



What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong interest in Islamic finance, ethical investing, or ESG frameworks.
  • Background in finance, business, economics, or Islamic studies (students and recent graduates encouraged).
  • Analytical mindset with attention to detail.
  • Familiarity with financial statements and data research (Excel, Sheets, or similar) is a plus.
  • Passion for combining faith-based values with modern finance.



What You’ll Gain:

  • Hands-on experience with Shariah-compliant portfolio screening.
  • Opportunity to directly contribute to the launch of the Ethical Investor App on App Store and Play Store.
  • Training in research methodology, compliance frameworks, and data analysis.
  • Mentorship from experienced professionals in trading & investing.
  • Certificate of Internship and potential long-term opportunities with Ethical Investor.
