The Internship Program with WPS Health Solutions is comprised of four key components. WPS interns will primarily focus on the responsibilities within their functional areas, as it relates to their respective field of study. In a group setting, interns will collaborate on the “Pay-It-Forward Project." The third component relates to exposure to corporate culture and training to aid in future career successes. At the conclusion of the program, interns will participate in a final presentation for senior executives by showcasing their experience in the program and functional areas.

The Financial Planning and Analysis team partners with leaders across the business to set WPS’ targets and understand its results. Our work directly supports the business in finding growth opportunities and driving efficiency, whether it’s forecasting for next year’s budget, working with our leadership team on bid proposals, or developing cost-saving strategies.

You will work with the FP&A team to develop various analyses across WPS business lines including Insurance, Government Healthcare, and Military and VA Healthcare. The intern will be expected to quickly gain working knowledge of the business and to provide insights to the team. In addition, the intern will be challenged to provide input into improving the analytical capabilities of the team and making processes more efficient.

Founded on an isthmus between Lake Monona and Lake Mendota, Madison is the U.S. state capital of Wisconsin and home to the University of Wisconsin. It is a city known for its lakes, restaurants, and extensive network of parks and bike trails.

The main downtown road, State Street, connects the University of Wisconsin campus with the Capitol Square. Open only to pedestrians and bikes, it’s lined with restaurants, cafes, and shops. On Saturday mornings visit the Dane County Farmers Market at Capitol Square as over 250 local vendors sell their items grown, raised, and produced in Wisconsin.

Take a break on one of Madison’s five lakes for boating, kayaking, or canoeing or visit the iconic UW Memorial Union Terrace overlooking Lake Mendota. Explore the UW Arboretum or lakes using the miles of bike trails throughout the city.

Madison’s vibrant and active community make it the ideal spot to spend your summer.
