Hospitality Accounting Summer Internship

Hogsalt

Description

Hogsalt is delighted to offer a Hospitality Accounting Summer Internship Experience for those students pursuing a career in Accounting, Finance, or similar. Spend the summer learning exactly how we do what we do and come out the other side ready for anything.

Hogsalt is looking for people with drive, ambition, and that special sensibility to take on 10 hard-charging weeks that will put you hands-on with the Hogsalt Accounting & Finance Department and their current projects and initiatives. Hogsalt does things a little differently, and our internship program is no exception. If you’re the kind of person who’s passionate about learning and you are up to the challenge, this is a singular opportunity.
