This internship is designed for recent college graduates with an interest in small business lending to immigrants and refugees. Previous related work experience is not required. Fluency in a second language, particularly one that is helpful to the communities we serve, is highly desirable.

This full-time paid position will require a 12-month commitment to working at the Accompany Capital office in Jackson Heights, Queens. The Leonid Ostrovsky Lending Intern will learn the fundamentals of small business lending, engage in research projects, and receive mentoring from senior loan officers. The selected candidate will receive both a salary and health benefits.

The application will become available in February 2024 and decisions will be announced in early summer, for a start date in fall 2024.

Please email Claire Gohorel to receive more information about the internship and the application process.
