This opportunity interacts with three separate areas of the organization: Income Tax, Internal Audit, and Financial Reporting. Each area provides an opportunity to see a different function of the organization. Income tax focuses on the periodical accruals for both state and federal income tax, crossing over various industries, as well as assisting with the preparation and review of the final returns. Internal Audit provides independent, objective assurance and consulting services designed to add value and improve the company’s operations. While providing a unique opportunity to work both with internal teams at the company as well as our external auditors. Financial Reporting’s primary focus is on the creation of all internal and external financial statements and regulatory filings. This also includes completing thorough analysis over each statement to ensure their appropriateness and material accuracy.
