Accounting Intern Summer 2025
2 weeks ago
Position Summary
As an Accounting Intern with Scout Clean Energy, you will play an integral role in building a tightly knit and highly productive team. You will have the opportunity to learn about the many facets of a wind developer and operator’s accounting, ranging from day-to-day transactions to month-end project financials, to due diligence on acquisitions, to the requirements of tax equity investors. You will be responsible for accurately completing a variety of accounting tasks on firm timelines, assuring our company’s ability to continue to drive growth and meet our commitments to our staff, investors, communities, and business partners.
Our team meets three times per week to review our priorities and progress towards important milestones. Throughout the day, you will interface with the Assistant Controller, Sr. Accountants, and other members of the accounting staff as we work together to complete each day’s assignments and make progress toward longer term projects. You will also communicate directly with staff throughout Scout to secure required approvals, clarifications, and to manage expectations going forward. The Accounting Intern reports directly to Scout’s Assistant Controller.
The ideal candidate will seek to master the tasks initially assigned to them while maintaining a growth mindset, stepping in to support others on the team with new responsibilities as they emerge. To start, the Accounting Intern will assist with the following team responsibilities:
- Prepare schedules and reports to support cash management, budgets, and account reconciliations and analysis.
- Maintain and update supporting documentation, such as fixed assets schedules.
- Assist with all aspects of accounting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles (GAAP) in a multi-company environment.
- Review financial data for accuracy; identify problems and support day-to-day operations.
- Research and reconcile discrepancies and verify documents as prescribed by accounting procedures and policies.
- Ad hoc assignments and special projects as required.
The successful candidate’s passion for renewable and clean energy will create a real connection to our work and to our broader team. Our new Accounting Intern will understand the service-oriented nature of this position and will bring the maturity needed to interact with many personality types and competing priorities. We seek someone with a desire to continuously improve and to support the development of processes that drive our team’s efficiency.
