Smoker & Company, LLC is a successful, dynamic CPA firm with multiple office locations in Lancaster and Berks County.  Smoker & Company, LLC and its related Family of Companies provides business services spanning various client needs such as bookkeeping, payroll, legal services, consulting, wealth management, business brokering, real estate sales/investing and property management.   Our mission is to meet the total accounting, tax, and business development needs of our clients in order to enhance the value of the businesses and individuals we are privileged to serve.

We are currently seeking Accounting Interns to join our firm, working a minimum of 20 hours per week from January through April at our offices in Lititz, PA and Leola, PA. Under the supervision of Senior and Staff Accountants, our Seasonal Tax Interns will learn transferrable skills and gain experience in a rapidly-changing industry.

We offer a productive atmosphere, great learning opportunities, and can work with your schedule with flexible office hours (we have hours available 7 days per week during tax season). We are seeking candidates who demonstrate ambition, willingness to learn, and a solid work ethic. While this is great exposure for those pursuing a career in Accounting, Finance, Economics,  Business Administration, or Tax Law, we welcome students across all majors who are willing to do the job and are ready to learn.
