Remote Accounting Internships

Examples of remote accounting internship roles

Here are a few examples of roles that our online accounting interns have taken on before:

• Tax Accountant

  Tax accountancy is one of the nine main branches of accounting. As an intern, you will get the chance to shadow a qualified tax accountant and assist them with the completion of important financial records. This will not only give you an insight into what it is like to work as part of a busy Accounts team, but will also teach you key data analysis and bookkeeping skills.

• Auditor

  Accountancy is a more diverse field than one might think. As an Audit intern, you will work alongside the people who review financial records to make sure they comply with local tax laws. You will need excellent attention to detail in this role, as specific responsibilities could include checking financial statements for misinformation and performing tests to ensure the statements are correct.

• Financial forecasting

  If you’re looking to pursue a career in accounting, financial forecasting is an essential skill. Interns assist in evaluating their host organization’s current financial condition, and estimating future conditions. These forecasts are an important part of how companies develop budgets and policies.

• Budget Analyst

  Analytical thinking, attention to detail, and strong communication skills are all attributes that are highly sought after in this sector. Specific responsibilities for Budget Analyst interns vary from sector to sector, but these skills will stand you in good stead regardless. Generally, you can expect to be working with a lot of statistical data, cross checking and comparing figures to ensure the accuracy of budgets and proposals.
