Internships+

Start your career on the right foot.

Not all accounting internships are created equal. Some are simply resume fillers with no real skill-building. But, if you’re looking for hands-on experience, client interaction, and actual responsibility, Henry & Peters is the place for you.

Joining the Henry & Peters (H&P) Internship Program means you will have the opportunity to put concepts and theories into practice, gaining exposure to a variety of accounting disciplines while making an impact through your work at H&P. We will provide development, mentoring, and networking opportunities, while you learn alongside others, including our leaders. Most of our Interns are invited to come back to begin their accounting career. And the best part is you will experience firsthand the H&P culture and what makes us different from the rest.

You will have the opportunity to work in Tax and Audit and your experience will include meaningful projects, paid volunteer hours, teambuilding activities, training with opportunities to earn certificates, free snacks, great office environment, and social activities.
