Lending Intern

About the role

Elevate your career with our internship opportunities, where you'll gain hands-on experience, job shadow with industry professionals, and have the opportunity to support the Agriculture community! Horizon Farm Credit is seeking a total of three full-time Lending interns, one intern per region, for the summer of 2027. Interns will participate in a 10-12 week internship based out of an office within the Horizon Territory. The intern's location during the summer of 2027 will be considered prior to placement.

As a Lending intern, you'll explore multiple career paths in a field office and gain valuable on-the-job experience with various departments. Interns will have the opportunity to work on specific projects or tasks and participate in meetings and presentations relevant to their work. While the intern will formally report to one manager, who will serve as a mentor, we believe broad exposure to our Association makes for a more valuable internship experience. You will also have the opportunity to network with industry professionals, participate in social events with other interns, and give back to the community.

• Exposure to a variety of roles and responsibilities, providing a holistic view of how Farm Credit supports its customers and community members.
• Discover different loan servicing options and work to gather appropriate documentation to initiate the request.
