POOL: RedTire Program Finance Analyst Intern

1 week ago


Lawrence, United States InsideHigherEd Full time
Position OverviewRedTire is a KU School of Business venture designed to enhance the economic wellbeing of Kansas and the surrounding states. The program finds the most suitably qualified candidate buyers to match with a successful small- to medium-sized business to prevent the shuttering of the business due to a lack of owner successor. RedTire assists in successfully transitioning the business to new ownership and relies on student interns during the financial analysis and valuation modelling part of the process.

The KU student analyst's first objective is to provide assistance to the RedTire Director so quality business and technical consulting assistance to RedTire clients is provided. The second objective is to provide an excellent experiential learning opportunity. The KU student intern will work ‘live real-world’ case scenarios to successfully transition a business from a retiring owner, by redefining their retirement, to a new younger owner who will acquire their business. Ideal candidates will continue in the role for multiple semesters and receive increasing wage adjustments for returning semesters, commensurate with performance.
