About the role
At CHI Border, we specialize in solving complex, multi-year cross-border tax issues for individuals around the globe. We pride ourselves on a culture built around teamwork, cultural awareness, and continuous professional growth. As our firm rapidly expands, we offer a supportive environment where team members can take on real responsibility from day one. Basic tax knowledge is preferred but not required.
Role
The intern will primarily work on individual income tax returns, particularly their international and cross-border components. Routine data input is generally completed by our overseas support team, allowing the intern to focus on more specialized foreign reporting matters. Responsibilities may include reviewing foreign financial information and entering data related to foreign mutual funds and other international assets. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is interested in international taxation, foreign cultures, and languages.
We are not a high-volume tax return preparation firm. Our work often involves reviewing multiple years of a client's tax filings, identifying and correcting foreign reporting issues, and helping individuals resolve complex cross-border tax matters.
Qualifications & Background
Tax Knowledge: Basic tax knowledge is preferred, but a strong willingness to learn cross-border concepts is what matters most.
Global Mindset: A genuine interest in international tax, foreign cultures, global financial systems, or foreign languages.
Analytical Skills: High attention to detail with the ability to review complex financial documents and spot discrepancies.
Team Player: Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset that fits our supportive, growth-oriented culture.
What We Offer
- Flexible Hours: 20 to 40 hours per week tailored to your schedule.
- Growth Potential: Clear potential for performance-based bonuses and future permanent, full-time employment.
- Specialized Experience: Hands-on training in niche, high-value international tax matters rather than basic data entry.
- Great Culture: A cohesive, team-first environment that values cultural diversity and professional development.
- Pay: $23.93 - $28.82 per hour
- Work Location: In person
