Your role.

No busy work here. As an intern, you'll be treated just like our entry level staff. You'll help instill confidence in organizations large and small by assuring their financial health.

  • Preparing tax returns such as state and local income and franchise tax returns.
  • Writing internal and external tax alerts on current tax developments and emerging planning techniques.
  • Researching complex tax issues and providing conclusions via writing technical memorandum or verbally.
  • Developing meaningful interactions with staff at all levels as well as with our impressive repertoire of clients.
  • Deepen knowledge in state and local tax as well as other taxes, including federal tax.
  • Participate in various training programs to enhance your knowledge of taxes.

The qualifications.

  • Detail-oriented leader with problem solving, communication, and analytical skills.
  • Pursuing a Bachelor's degree with an emphasis in accounting; or master's degree in accounting or tax.
  • Completed the first two entry-level accounting courses and at a minimum, currently enrolled in the first intermediate level accounting course.
  • Academic success (a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0).
  • Must be pursuing a LLM, JD, or CPA license.

This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week. This position may require some local, national, and occasional international travel.

What makes us different?

On the surface, we're one of the nation's largest audit, tax, consulting, and wealth management firms. But dig a little deeper, and you'll see what makes us different: we're a relatively jerk-free firm (hey, nobody's perfect) with a world-class culture, consistent recognition as one of Fortune Magazine's "100 Best Companies to Work For," and an endless array of opportunities.??At Plante Moran, diversity, equity and inclusion means that all staff members have equitable and fair opportunities to succeed, in an inclusive environment, with their individual, unique identities. So,?what are you waiting for? Apply now.

Plante Moran enjoys a "Workplace for Your Day" model which, simply put, means we strive for flexibility and balance while staying true to our principally in-person model. We believe that face-to-face interactions are paramount for individual and collective development, but also encourage individuals to work with their supervisor and team to determine their optimal working environment each day.

Plante Moran is committed to a diverse workplace. We strive to create a culture where each person feels accepted and valued. We believe that each person's ultimate potential begins with first acknowledging their inherent dignity. When we can recognize and celebrate our many human differences, we're able to create a workplace where all staff feel a sense of belonging and an opportunity to succeed. This allows us to attract and retain the best talent, serve clients through diverse thinking, and better represent and support the various communities in which we live and work. Plante Moran is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Plante Moran maintains a drug-free workplace.

Interested applicants must submit their resume for consideration using our applicant tracking system. Due to the high volume of interest in our positions, only candidates selected for interviews will be contacted. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship, with the exception of qualified candidates who are bilingual in either Japanese and English or Chinese and English. Unsolicited resumes from search firms or employment agencies, or similar, will not be paid a fee and become the property of Plante Moran.

The specific statements above are not intended to be all-inclusive.

We are pleased to offer eligible staff a robust benefits package. Eligibility and contribution requirements for some of these benefits vary based on the number of hours staff work per week. Highlights include health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance. In addition to this, eligible staff are able to take advantage of our Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays, as well as a 401(k) plan, flexible benefits plans, business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use. A pension plan is also available for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff. A discretionary bonus plan is available for eligible staff. Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time.

The compensation range reflects the base salary we reasonably expect to pay for this position across our offices in the following regions: CO, IL, OH, and MA. Please review the?position description for the?applicable geographic location. Generally, experienced hires are not hired at or near the maximum salary range, as compensation decisions take into account a wide variety of factors, including but not limited to: responsibilities, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and geography. For early career roles, including campus hires, we offer standardized, market-based starting salaries among individuals within the same hiring group. This approach ensures fairness and reflects current industry benchmarks for entry-level talent.

Under Colorado's Job Application Fairness Act, you have the right to redact, from any documents that you submit in connection with your application, information that identifies your age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution. Should you wish to exercise your right to redact such information, please redact it prior to submitting documentation.
