Role Overview

We are seeking a highly analytical, detail-oriented, and proactive Finance Intern to support VidaSana's financial analysis, planning, reporting, and strategic initiatives.

This role is specifically designed for graduate students currently pursuing a Master's-level degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, Financial Analytics, Data Analytics, or a related field.
