Internship
Accounting Intern
This role is designed for candidates who want to build strong foundations in accounting through research and interpretation, not routine bookkeeping.
Role Overview
At Fork IQ, accounting is treated as a lens to understand how companies actually operate, how revenue flows, where risks sit, and how financial signals translate into real business decisions.
This internship is best suited for someone who is curious about financial statements, international accounting standards, and how structured financial information can be used in analysis and decision-making.
What You May Work On
- Reviewing and interpreting financial statements including the P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.
- Supporting research on accounting treatments and international standards including IFRS and related frameworks.
- Analysing how companies recognise revenue, costs, and financial risks.
- Assisting in breaking down financial disclosures into structured, usable insights.
- Conducting research on accounting practices across industries or geographies.
- Organising findings into clear, structured notes for internal use.
- Supporting the team in maintaining high-quality, interpretable financial data.
Who This Is For
- Undergraduates or recent graduates in Accounting, Finance, Management, or related fields.
- Candidates pursuing or partially qualified in CIMA, ACCA, or CA Sri Lanka.
- Individuals who prefer understanding numbers over just processing them.
Useful Background
Basic understanding of financial statements
Familiarity with IFRS concepts
Strong research and reading ability
Spreadsheet proficiency
Clear summarisation skills
What We Value
- Curiosity about how businesses actually work through their financials.
- Ability to read, question, and interpret rather than just record.
- Attention to detail when working with financial data.
- Clear, structured thinking and communication.
- Ownership and reliability in a remote work environment.
