Student, Intern Finance Summer 2027

PS Job Title: Student, Intern

Work Place Flexibility: Onsite

Legal Entity: Entergy Texas, Inc.-GTX

About This Role

The Premier Performance and Transformation Office (PPTO) manages Entergys strategic transformation initiatives. Grid modernization, clean energy, resilience investments. We validate strategic initiatives at approval gates and track whether they deliver on their promises. If they fall short, we surface that to leadership.

Youll support financial analysis and value realization at the portfolio level. That means looking across all our active initiatives and asking whether were hitting our targets collectively, where were falling short, and where leadership should focus. Youll work directly with our Sr. Manager and two Sr. Staff members. Daily check-ins. Real guidance.

Your Responsibilities

• Portfolio Benefit Tracking - Build the analytics that show if our initiatives are delivering promised benefits
• Stage-Gate Financial Governance - Help create the standards all initiatives must meet before approval
• Portfolio Value Gap Analysis - Compare what we promised against what were actually delivering across the portfolio
• Financial Data - Keep the numbers organized so analysis is possible

What Youll Learn

Youll gain insight into how utilities execute large-scale infrastructure modernization programs and the financial governance frameworks required to manage transformation at scale.

Your Team

Youll be assigned to a focused team consisting of one Sr. Manager and two Sr. Staff members in PPTO Finance. Youll receive regular feedback and mentorship from senior financial analysts with direct experience in value realization and portfolio governance.

Minimum Requirements

• Currently pursuing a degree as Junior or Senior standing in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field
• Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.8 on a 4.0 scale
• Intermediate Excel proficiency
• Ability to build simple financial models or dashboards
• Demonstrated ability to work independently on structured analytical tasks with guidance
• Ability to interpret and explain financial data and variance to non-finance audiences in writing
• Detail-oriented with ability to identify and flag data inconsistencies

Nice to Have

• Prior internship in Finance, Accounting, or Business Analysis where you built financial models or tracked actual vs. forecast performance
• Experience with variance analysis or budget vs. actual reporting
• Familiarity with financial systems or databases beyond Excel
• Exposure to utility, energy, or regulated industry through coursework, internship, or research

Why PPTO

Most companies treat transformation as isolated projects. We treat it as a portfolio. The question isnt "Is this one initiative worth funding?" Its "Are we making the right bets collectively? Are we delivering what we promised?" That lens exists nowhere else in the company.

What Youll Have

By end of summer, youll own a real project. Youll understand how utilities modernize, why financial rigor matters, and how decisions actually get made. Thats worth putting on your resume.
