Finance MBA Intern – Summer

Job Description

Visa’s Finance Internship Program is designed to immerse you in the dynamic world of payments by placing you in a high‑impact role where you’ll work alongside top Finance professionals. You’ll grow your skills and deepen your understanding of Visa’s business through meaningful projects, hands‑on experience, and structured support — including training, guidance, and feedback to help you drive real change. Beyond your core responsibilities, you will participate in two exclusive executive speaker series — one focused on Finance and the other on the broader Visa organization — offering valuable insights into how Visa operates the world’s largest payments network.

At the end of the summer, you’ll have the opportunity to present your work to Visa’s Finance Leadership Team.

Summer Interns are placed in finance functions based on their background and Visa’s organizational priorities, offering exposure to impactful work across the business. Core functions include Controllership, FP&A, Treasury, and Strategic Sourcing.

Summer Interns are considered for full‑time opportunities based on their internship performance. Highly successful interns receive full‑time offers to join Visa’s two‑year Finance Leadership Development Program (FLDP). The FLDP consists of four 6‑month rotations designed to build broad foundational knowledge, enhance professional networks, and foster professional growth. Successful FLDP participants will exit the program pursuing Finance Senior Manager roles.

Controllership: Understand, record, and reconcile accounting transactions, analyze financial statements, and participate in the external financial reporting process, including compliance with internal controls.

Financial Planning & Analysis: FP&A develops conceptually sound, rigorous, and detailed understandings of all the various elements that impact Visa’s P&L, with the goal of optimizing financial performance and delivering against financial goals. This is supported by core planning & analysis responsibilities, the ongoing drive to uncover new insights and suggest improvements, and by either making or enabling business decisions.

Treasury: Treasury facilitates and optimizes the global movement of funds for all areas of Visa’s business, placing the team at the center of the world’s largest payments network. Core responsibilities include the settlement of Visa transactions (~$60B/day), all aspects of foreign exchange (spanning ~200 countries and ~160 currencies), providing innovative TaaS (Treasury‑as‑a‑Service) offerings, and the management of Visa’s insurance activities, cash, liquidity, and debt.

These responsibilities are supported via expertise, operational excellence, innovation, and leading‑edge products and services.

Strategic Sourcing: Sourcing partners with leaders across the business and establishes third‑party partnerships that drive efficiency, cost savings and performance improvements. Third‑party relationships at Visa range from sponsorship deals in marketing to facilities management to IT network processors. In achieving these goals, Visa leverages best‑in‑class strategic sourcing practices and employs cross‑functional collaboration with teams such as supplier risk management, legal, FP&A and IT.
