Accounting Intern

Founded in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1963 by Jack L. Tyler, P.E., Jack Tyler Engineering, Inc exists to serve its customers by providing engineered technical solutions to customers' problems. Jack Tyler Engineering was founded on core family values, and those same values drive every part of our organization today. Now, 60 years later and in the hands of our 3rd generation of family leadership, we are growing and expanding our services in both task and territory.

Jack Tyler Engineering exists to serve two main purposes:

• We sell and service the equipment that is required to provide clean water to the communities where we live and work. Everyone deserves clean water, and we strive to make sure there is an ample supply. Our equipment collects, treats, and distributes water and wastewater.
• We sell and service the rotating equipment that is required to keep manufacturing plants up and running in Arkansas and surrounding states. When plants close due to unplanned maintenance and downtime, it can cripple an organization and a community.

The specific equipment that we sell and service from our three Arkansas locations includes pumps and pump systems, compressed air systems, valves, actuators, mechanical seals, controls, water treatment equipment, wastewater treatment equipment, and water storage tanks.

We are looking for an eager college student who is currently enrolled in a finance, accounting or related program. This internship opportunity is ideal for students with a keen interest in furthering their classroom skills in a real-life professional setting.
