Becoming an intern at FairPensions
We really value the skills and contribution of our interns. They make a big difference in our organisation: taking on tasks ranging from research to administration, fundraising to marketing. For example one recent intern at FairPensions played a key role in drawing up our ranking of the top 20 fund managers, and another updated our supporter data base and helped to redesign our website.
In return, we offer a rewarding experience. You will learn about responsible investment and campaigning and gain insight into how a not-for-profit organisation works. Former interns have gone on to work for a wide range of organisations, from the
Carbon Trust
and
Help the Aged
, to
Bloomberg
,
Dexia Asset Management
,
Upstream
and
Nestor Advisors
.
As well as gaining valuable experience, you'll be welcomed into our small, dynamic team. Interns are not paid, but FairPensions reimburses reasonable travel and lunch expenses.
What we look for in volunteers:
- Good communication skills;
- An ability to take the initiative;
- Willingness to learn and flexibility;
- Enthusiasm for corporate accountability and sustainable investment.

What one volunteer said about working here:
"The people here could not be more welcoming, willing, and informative. I learned a great deal about what a positive work environment is, and what it can accomplish above and beyond the average workplace...
It just goes to prove that benevolent goals correlate with wonderful environments and great people."
(Mary Elizabeth Thompson, former volunteer)
