About the Role

Imagine this. You are getting your first hands-on experience in an international Finance team, learning how the systems and processes behind Destinus' global Travel & Expense operations actually work.

As our Travel & Expense Intern, you will support the team with real day-to-day responsibilities from the start. You will work with expenses, reimbursements, receipts, employee questions, financial information, and internal systems while learning how Finance operations work across an international company.

You do not need previous experience in Travel & Expense or Finance. We are looking for someone who is curious, reliable, comfortable working with Excel and systems, and eager to learn. You will work closely with experienced members of the Travel & Expense team who will help you build your knowledge and confidence as you gradually take on more responsibility.

This internship is offered for 4 months, with the possibility of transitioning into a permanent position based on business needs, performance, and mutual fit. Full on-the-job training will be provided.

At Destinus, we are revolutionizing the defense industry with cutting-edge Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our innovative technologies are designed to meet the unique demands of modern defense operations, delivering unparalleled speed, precision, and cost effectiveness. Destinus partners with government agencies and defense organizations worldwide to provide advanced solutions for mission-critical operations, enabling a new era of efficiency and technological superiority. Join us in shaping the future of defense with groundbreaking aerospace innovations.

What You'll Do

  • Support the processing and review of employee expenses, receipts, and related information
  • Help respond to employee questions about expenses, reimbursements, and internal processes
  • Check information carefully and follow up when something is missing or does not look right
  • Learn how to investigate straightforward issues and find solutions with support from the team
  • Help keep Travel & Expense records and information accurate, complete, and organized
  • Support the team with reconciliations and other regular Finance activities
  • Learn how our Travel & Expense systems and processes work and become confident using them
  • Use Excel to review, organize, and work with financial and transactional information
  • Help identify problems and opportunities to improve the way we work
  • Collaborate with the Travel & Expense team and other teams across Destinus

Requirements

What You'll Need

  • You are currently studying or have recently completed studies in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Management, or another relevant field
  • Strong attention to detail and a genuine interest in getting things right
  • Comfortable using Excel for everyday tasks and interested in developing your skills further
  • An interest in working with systems, data, and structured processes
  • A practical approach to solving problems and the curiosity to understand why something does not look right
  • The confidence to ask questions when something does not make sense
  • Good organizational skills and the ability to manage different tasks and priorities
  • Good communication skills and a collaborative approach to working with others
  • A reliable, responsible, and proactive attitude
  • Fluency in English, our primary working language
  • Previous exposure to Finance, administration, customer service, operations, or another process-driven environment is a plus, but not required
  • Previous experience with Navan, Microsoft Dynamics, or other Finance systems is a plus, but definitely not required

We are more interested in your attitude, curiosity, and ability to learn than in previous job titles or professional experience.

Who You Are

You are looking for more than an internship where you simply observe from the sidelines. You want to learn by doing, understand how things work, and gradually take ownership of real responsibilities.

You are curious and comfortable asking questions. If something does not make sense, you want to understand why. If something looks wrong, you investigate it. If you make a mistake, you learn from it and move forward.

You enjoy working with information, systems, and processes and have a natural eye for detail. You might not know Travel & Expense or Finance systems yet, and that is completely fine. What matters is that you are motivated to learn them.

You work well with others, communicate openly, and can be trusted to follow through on what you take on.

We can teach you our systems and processes. Bring curiosity, reliability, attention to detail, and a willingness to solve problems, and you will have the opportunity to build practical experience in international Finance operations while making a real contribution to the team.
