2026 Charles Schwab Accounting- Sox Compliance & Internal Control Audit Internship

Description du poste:

Your opportunity
The Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance Office (SCO) performs risk assessment, scoping, testing, concluding, and results reporting for the annual assessments of management's Internal Control over Financial Reporting (ICFR) for SOX and FDICIA, and for the annual assessment of management's Internal Control over Compliance (ICOC) for SEA Rule 17a-5. The SCO supports Schwab's mission by assessing controls addressing the completeness and accuracy of Schwab's financial reporting, and Schwab's financial reporting is used to secure financing so the company can meet the needs of our clients. In addition, the SCO assesses ICOC addressing the protection of client assets, which gives clients comfort to invest their assets with Schwab.
The intern will have a unique opportunity to split their internship with the SCO's Business Process and IT testing specialists to allow them to explore multiple areas of the assessment and to discover the areas in which they excel and that they most enjoy. They will partner with members of the SCO to conduct walkthrough meetings, to perform testing and issue analysis, and to provide testing results. Through these steps, the intern will experience the day-to-day activities of full-time employees to enable them to determine whether they would like to start their career with Schwab and on the SCO.
