Investment Fellow

Company Description Souq Capital is a shared risk funding platform that supports product- and service-based businesses by investing directly in inventory, contracts, and services without using traditional debt or equity dilution. The organization focuses on providing flexible capital with rapid decision-making to help founders grow on terms that are aligned with their long-term interests. Souq works closely with entrepreneurs to structure funding that matches their operational needs and revenue models. Potential applicants will join a lean, high-impact team committed to rethinking how founders access growth capital.
Role Description The Investment Fellow internship is a hybrid role focused on supporting Souq’s investment decision-making and portfolio operations. Day-to-day responsibilities include sourcing and screening potential investment opportunities, conducting market and company research, and assisting with financial and operational analysis of businesses seeking funding. The Fellow will help prepare internal memos and presentations, contribute to deal pipeline tracking, and coordinate with founders to collect and verify business data. The role also involves supporting ongoing portfolio monitoring, helping refine internal processes, and contributing to strategic projects that improve Souq’s shared risk funding model.
