About the role:

Morningstar is committed to empowering investor success.

One way we accomplish this is by offering independent research and great software products to financial advisers and individual investors.

We believe that when the investor wins, we all win.

At Morningstar, your contributions have meaning and can drive change. We offer a place where talented, driven people can grow.

Our differences are our strength; the fact that we don't all think the same way and encourage unique perspectives helps create great products and services for our clients.


The Group:

The Research group also leverages data on hundreds of thousands of investment offerings, including stocks, mutual funds, and similar vehicles, along with real-time global market data on millions of equities, indexes, futures, options, commodities, and precious metals, in addition to foreign exchange and Treasury markets.

Morningstar is one of the largest independent sources of fund, equity, and credit data and research in the world, and our advocacy for investors' interests is the foundation of our company.

Human skills:

  • Strong communication skills, both written and oral.
  • A sense of humour.
