Strategic Finance Intern (8-month Co-op/Internship)

AbCellera is breaking the barriers of conventional drug development to propel antibody-based medicines from target to clinic.

We are a team of scientists, engineers, creatives, and business professionals who believe that advancing science enhances lives.

We have developed technologies to unlock high-value drug targets, including antibody-drug conjugates and T-cell engagers for cancer, and antibodies targeting complex transmembrane proteins for indications such as metabolic and endocrine conditions, pain, and autoimmunity.

We are looking for a motivated and talented individual currently pursuing a degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or another relevant field to join our Strategic Finance team as a co-op or intern for an 8 month term, starting in May 2025.

As a member of our team, you will collaborate with us on research, analysis, and reporting tasks in support of the company’s decision making.

While in this on-site position, based in beautiful Vancouver, you will receive guidance and supervision from experienced team members within the Strategic Finance team.

The internship is designed to offer exposure to real-world projects and the opportunity to contribute to the advancement of antibody-based medicines from target to clinic within Canada.

How you might spend your days

• Conducting independent research on various factors around drug development to support financial modeling
• Contributing to resource allocation reviews for internal programs through supporting report generation, analysis, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to understand progress on programs and re-forecast investment requirements
• Owning a number of processes during our quarterly close, and generating materials to support earnings call preparation
• Assisting in the optimization of financial models and systems to enhance operations and strategic decision making

We'd love to hear from you if

• You are currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree program in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, or a related field
• You have strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret financial and other data and draw actionable insights; prior co-op or internship experience in finance, consulting, or accounting would be considered an asset
• You are proficient in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, and are looking forward to gaining exposure to other financial analysis tools such as SAP SAC and Monte Carlo simulations
• You have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary teams
• You are detail-oriented and highly organized, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• You have a keen interest in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries, and are eager to apply your skills towards an impactful mission

What we offer

AbCellera’s hiring range for this role is CAD $3,300 - $3,700 per month, commensurate with your education and job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.

In addition to base pay, we offer a number of ways to support AbCellerites in maximizing their work-life synergy. You will have a vacation allowance as well as additional days off as part of our company-wide office closures (a real value to all!), and sick leave time while on your internship.

Scientific and technical mentorship is a priority. And you’ll find we prioritize teams and social groups to build community and connections across AbCellera.
