Accounting Intern (Finance) | 6-Month Internship

Role Overview

We are looking for an Accounting Intern to join our Finance team and contribute to day-to-day finance operations while gaining hands-on experience in a growing organization. This role is suited for someone who is willing to take ownership of their work and contribute beyond routine tasks.

You will work closely with a team comprising both experienced professionals and junior staff, in an environment that values learning, accountability, and continuous improvement. While guidance is provided, interns are expected to be proactive learners rather than passive observers.

Key Responsibilities

• Core finance operations: Support day-to-day finance activities such as accounts payable and receivable, employee claims, and purchase requisitions, with increasing responsibility as you become familiar with our processes.

• Reporting and analysis: Prepare basic financial reports, perform reconciliations, and assist with variance analysis under guidance.

• System implementation support: Contribute to data checks and documentation as we roll out a new financial system – a chance to see how finance and technology intersect.

• Process improvement: Contribute to documenting existing workflows and suggest practical improvements, including the use of digital or AI-assisted tools where appropriate.

• Cross-functional exposure: Based on interest and performance, there may be opportunities to observe or assist with areas such as treasury, budgeting, audit preparation, or finance-related support for our business units (e.g. transport consultancy, events).

Requirements

• Pursuing a diploma/degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business

• Basic understanding of accounting principles

• Proficient in Excel and MS Office

• Detail-oriented, organized, and eager to learn

• Prior internship experience is a plus, but not required

What You’ll Gain

• Practical, hands-on experience in an in-house finance function

• Exposure to both routine finance tasks and project work

• Opportunities to take on broader responsibilities based on performance and initiative

• Mentorship from experienced professionals

• A realistic understanding of what a career in accounting and finance involves
