Accounting/Information Systems Internship

You are an accounting student with a dual major, minor or concentration in information systems looking for an internship experience with a truly great organization that could turn into a full time opportunity after graduation. You act with urgency, but balance that with a strong attention to detail. You are accountable, courageous, and innovative. You have the ability to understand complex topics but also keep things simple and articulate what really matters. You are analytical, authentic, adaptable, an energy bringer and focused on positive outcomes. You want to be a part of a great team environment focused on your development and long-term growth. Are you ready to join us?

At Weyerhaeuser, we are an industry leader, with a strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) foundation. We sustainably manage forests and manufacture wood products that make the world a better place. We’re committed to being a leader in climate change solutions and to our company’s core values: safety, integrity, citizenship, sustainability, and inclusion. We are driven to achieve excellence and proud of what we do. Our Accounting department is at the heart of the company, recording, reporting, and analyzing the company’s results. We are focused on developing great leaders and contributors for our team and the rest of Weyerhaeuser, with accounting alumni serving in key roles across the company.

In our Summer 2027 Accounting/Information Systems internship program, you will be a key contributor, completing meaningful work that is important to our success.  You will have the opportunity to perform closing activities (both accounting and system related), analyze financial results, and prepare/present working papers with accurate supporting documentation. You will also participate in projects and company initiatives, both with one of our accounting teams and our Accounting SAP Support team (which supports our closing and consolidations processes, as well as working with our system data and other related activities).  You will have a direct manager who will provide you with coaching, mentoring and feedback throughout the internship, as well as “buddies” who will assist in your training, day-to-day tasks, and projects. You will also be able to network with other Weyerhaeuser interns, employees, and leaders and participate in fun team events and volunteer opportunities.

• Leverage both your accounting and information systems background in a unique hybrid role
