Tax Internship: Summer

Overview

As an intern on our tax team, you will have an opportunity work on projects to help ensure that Susquehanna is able to effectively maximize after-tax profit for our trading activity. You will work on projects that give you exposure to multiple departments (such as trading, operations and technology) as well as multiple systems (both third party platforms and those internally developed) to ensure that proper documentation is obtained and accurate reporting is performed.

You will also have the unique opportunity to learn about current tax rules and how they impact various aspects of the business.
