ROLE OVERVIEW The Finance intern will support three strategic initiatives: improving the lead-to-cash process, strengthening enterprise data quality through structured discovery and governance, and documenting SCADA finance processes by capturing and translating subject-matter expertise into clear, reusable documentation.

The Intern will play the role of an internal consultant and project manager, interfacing regularly with both Finance and other cross-functional leaders to move the projects toward completion.

Key Responsibilities Responsibilities are aligned to two concurrent initiatives:

Project 1 – Lead-to-Cash Process Improvement

Conduct process discovery across the lead-to-cash lifecycle (e.g., contracting, invoicing, billing, collections), including documenting current-state workflows and handoffs.

Identify process breaks and root causes (including where issues originate in contracts, invoices, or upstream systems) and synthesize findings into clear problem statements.

Prepare executive-ready updates and briefings summarizing insights, trade-offs, recommendations, and next steps.

Project 2 – Enterprise Data Quality & Governance

Support identification of data disconnects and root causes; document issues and potential remediation options to improve enterprise-wide data quality and usability.

Create, maintain, and circulate discovery documentation (e.g., data inventories, data flow diagrams, issue logs, and decision logs) to drive alignment and execution.

Memorialize key decisions and translate outcomes into decision-tree or lightweight governance artifacts to enable future clean‑up and ongoing data hygiene checks.

Project 3 – SCADA Finance Process Documentation (Knowledge Capture)

Conduct structured interviews and working sessions to capture tacit knowledge ("what’s in people’s heads") including exceptions, escalation paths, and common edge cases.

Document current‑state end‑to‑end finance processes (e.g., forecasting, month‑end close activities, cost tracking)

Review documentation with stakeholders to validate accuracy, incorporate feedback, and identify opportunities to streamline or standardize.

Deliverables

Project 1: Structured discovery workbook capturing data flow current‑state process steps, inputs/outputs, issues, and open questions (as scoped during the internship).

Project 2: Decision‑tree artifacts that document key data definitions, classification logic, and agreed‑upon handling of common edge cases to support consistent reporting and operational use.

Project 3: SCADA finance process documentation pack capturing roles, cadence, systems, handoffs, exceptions, and escalation paths for key recurring activities.

Ongoing Communication

Weekly or bi‑weekly readouts to Finance and cross‑functional stakeholders summarizing progress, decisions needed, key risks, and upcoming work.

Final internship summary deliverable (brief deck or memo) consolidating findings, decisions, and recommended path forward for both projects.

Qualifications

Currently enrolled in an Economics or Sciences or Liberal Arts undergraduate program

Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.

Comfort working across multiple teams and stakeholders.
