Every year, the Campaign for Working Families, Inc. recruits, trains, and manages hundreds of volunteers and interns who staff free tax sites across Southeastern PA and South Jersey, connecting taxpayers to important tax credits and resource building services. In 2022, CWF’s sites filed over 30,000 returns and brought in over $30 million in refunds to our region’s economy.
For this tax season, CWF is seeking highly motivated and mature individuals to fill our multiple Tax Associate intern positions. All students, no matter your major, are encouraged to apply, because each intern will learn critical skills that will not only enhance your resume but also your prospects for employment upon graduation. This opportunity is also WorkStudy and academic credit eligible.
Individuals should possess strong quantitative skills and be extremely detail-oriented. Previous accounting and/or tax preparation experience is a plus but not required since training is provided. This is a great professional opportunity for Accounting, Finance and Business majors. Tax Associates will be engaged in various roles including tax preparation and Quality Review, as well as operations/administrative support. Duties and responsibilities may expand based upon individual strengths and schedule availability.

- Complete 24 hours of tax prep training (online)
