About Us

Quanta Aviation Services (QAS) is the administrative and organizational arm supporting four aviation companies within Quanta Services. Together, these companies operate the largest private utility helicopter fleet in the world.

 

QAS supports the aviation group through operational coordination, safety and compliance oversight, construction and rigging support, and training that prepares both flight crews and lineworkers to safely perform helicopter-supported utility work. By providing this structure and support, Quanta Aviation Services enables each operating company to focus on safe operations, customer service, and executing complex utility and construction missions nationwide.

About this Role

This is not a shadow internship. You will be assigned real work; your results will directly impcact operating decisions and opportunities across QAS. You will report directly to the FP&A Manager and, by the end of 12 weeks, will have built something that you present in front of people who care about the outcome.

What You'll Do

We are a helicopter company, we are nimble and move fast; the projects we are planning today will likely be completed before the internship, and the ones we will start next month may not even be an possible today. You will be assigned a project that fits the nature of the role and aligns with the demands of the company.  This can span the range of scheduling, inventory management, allocations, valuation, or any mixture of related financial modeling, planning, or analysis.

What You'll Bring

We use a simple filter: hungry, humble, and smart.

  • Hungry - You are seeking to learn, to challenge, to create. You find the next level of questions, go one layer deeper than asked, and take ownership of your work because it has your name on it permanently.
  • Humble - You don’t know what you don't know, and anybody from mechanic to president may have that answer. Ask good questions, take feedback without ego, and give credit where it is due. You are here to learn and contribute; humility is how you will make an impression.
  • Smart - You can create simplicity out of complexity. You see patterns in data, know when something doesn't foot, and translate messy information into a clear story.

Required:

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Finance, Business, Data Analytics, or a related field
  • Graduation date of December 2026 or later
  • Strong Excel skills - you should be comfortable with financial modeling, pivot tables, and data manipulation
  • Familiarity with data visualization concepts; Power BI experience or drive to learn quickly
  • Exceptional attention to detail and comfort working with large, messy datasets
  • Executive-level written and verbal communication skills

Preferred (helpful but not required):

  • Experience with Power BI, Power Query, or DAX
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted analysis tools (e.g., Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT applied to finance workflows)
  • Exposure to ERP or financial systems (NetSuite, SAP, or similar)
  • Background - we honestly do not care, exceptional people do the ordinary exceptionally well.
  • Experience with Python, SQL, or other data manipulation languages

What You'll Get

  • Direct mentorship from an FP&A leader with deep expertise across financial reporting, data engineering, and AI-enabled finance
  • Real executive exposure - you will present to QAS leadership, not just prep slides for someone else to deliver
  • Experience working across five operating subsidiaries with different business models as well as interacting with a fortune 200 company, giving you breadth most interns don't get
  • A working knowledge of modern FP&A tooling: Excel, Power BI, PowerPoint, and Artificial Intelligence
  • A portfolio of actual deliverables (models / dashboards / analyses) that you can speak to in future interviews
