• Assist with month-end reporting, including variance analysis explaining differences between actual results, budget, and prior periods.
• Prepare clear summaries and presentations of findings for finance, sales, and operations stakeholders.
• Contribute to at least one end-to-end project, such as a margin analysis by SKU, a reorder point review, or an automated reporting tool, and present results to the team at the end of the internship.
