Corporate Tax Internship

Corporate Tax Internship at Nationwide

As a team member in Finance at Nationwide, a Fortune 100 company with nearly $70 billion in annual sales, you will have many paths to grow. Nationwide's customers are at the center of everything the company does, and it looks for associates who are passionate about delivering extraordinary care.

Job Description

The tax department handles all tax responsibilities for federal and state income, premium, sales and use, and personal property taxes. It also works with other Nationwide departments that handle payroll tax, property tax, product taxation, 1099 reporting, and government relations.

Because Nationwide's business is domestic, the company faces fewer foreign tax issues than global companies do. It does, however, have filing requirements in nearly all states and U.S. territories.

The tax intern will mainly work with the premium tax team, preparing various tax returns and calculations, assisting with notices, and supporting other team projects. The role also gives exposure to other tax functions, such as federal and state income tax processes, through onboarding sessions and assigned tasks. The department puts a strong focus on continuous improvement, so interns are encouraged to suggest improvements and may help implement projects.

Desired Skills and Qualifications: Progress toward an accounting or business analytics degree is desired. Proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel and strong communication skills are required.

Work Arrangement: This internship is hybrid in Columbus, Ohio, or fully remote.

Nationwide does not participate in the STEM OPT Extension program. Sponsorship decisions for qualifying positions are made at Nationwide's discretion based on business need and budget, and sponsorship is usually not available for entry-level roles.

This position could be filled in any of the lower 48 U.S. states.
