Why Sarepta? Why Now?

The promise of genetic medicine has arrived, and Sarepta is at the forefront. We hold a leadership position in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Duchenne) and are building a robust portfolio of programs across muscle, central nervous system, and cardiac diseases. In 2023, we launched our fourth therapy and the first ever gene therapy to treat Duchenne. 

We’re looking for people who see unlimited potential in themselves and who are motivated by an unwavering commitment to patients.

What Sarepta Offers

At Sarepta, we care deeply about all the people in our community and believe in the importance of supporting them in all aspects of their lives. We aspire to maintain a culture that acknowledges people bring their whole selves to work, and we will strive to help everyone in our community integrate their work and personal lives while maintaining productivity.

The Importance of the Role

This position provides hands-on experience with inventory reconciliations, financial close activities, and audit-ready documentation within a biopharmaceutical manufacturing environment.

Through close collaboration with Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Technical Operations teams, the co-op will gain insight into how financial data supports business decisions and operational performance. In addition, this role offers the opportunity to contribute to process improvements and AI-enabled automation initiatives aimed at modernizing finance workflows and enhancing efficiency.

The Opportunity to Make a Difference

As a Cost Accounting Co-op, you will contribute to initiatives that strengthen financial accuracy, operational insight, and process efficiency across the organization. Responsibilities may include:

  • Assisting with financial close activities and gaining exposure to end-to-end manufacturing and inventory flows

  • Developing standardized reconciliation templates, documentation, and checklists to support consistency and scalability

  • Supporting audit-ready documentation and contributing to internal control processes

  • Collaborating cross-functionally with Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Finance teams to gather and validate operational data used in financial reporting

  • Identifying opportunities to streamline finance processes and reduce manual effort through automation

  • Supporting the development of Excel- and AI-enabled tools (e.g., Copilot) to enhance reporting and workflow efficiency

  • Contributing to broader finance transformation initiatives focused on scalability, accuracy, and operational excellence

This role offers a valuable opportunity to gain hands-on experience in cost accounting within a manufacturing environment while contributing to initiatives that improve financial processes and support data-driven decision-making.
