Full Job Description

We're Looking for an Accounting Policy Intern!

About the Company:
Security Benefit is a leader in the U.S. retirement market with more than $60 billion in assets under management. We offer opportunities to thrive, innovate, and make an impact. As part of our team, you’ll play a key role in driving the future of the U.S. retirement industry. Security Benefit is a PLACE where we promise to help our customers To and Through Retirement®.
We’re proud to have been recognized as one of the best in the business:

Named to Ward’s 50 list of top-performing life-health insurance companies
Recognized on list of Ingram’s Top 100 Private Companies in the Kansas City area in 2024

About the Role:
As an Accounting Policy Intern, you’ll be an integral part of a collaborative, agile team. The Intern position reports to the Accounting Policy Director and can be performed remotely or in a hybrid capacity from our Topeka or Overland Park, Kansas offices.
We built this internship to work around your semester. Start at 10-20 hours/week, flex up during breaks or summer if you want more, and stay on with us across multiple semesters.
You’ll get hands-on experience with how our team uses AI in technical accounting, helping build and improve the tools and workflows we rely on and shaping how the function works day to day.
What is Accounting Policy? Accounting Policy is the team that determines the right accounting treatment for Security Benefit’s most complex, new, or unusual transactions, and how new accounting standards apply to the company. It interprets FASB and NAIC guidance, sets the company’s position on emerging issues, and helps partner teams apply that guidance consistently. It’s the “how do we account for this, and why” function.

Use AI tools and agents to help build and organize a technical accounting knowledge repository, capturing research, precedent, and accounting positions in a structured, searchable format
Gain exposure to emerging U.S. GAAP and Statutory accounting guidance (FASB, NAIC) by supporting research on real transactions
Assist with maintaining and enhancing regulatory tracking tools and summaries for internal stakeholders
Provide support on PBBD (Principles-Based Bond Definition) initiatives, including documentation of decision frameworks and onboarding considerations
Assist in drafting summaries and supporting materials for accounting policy memos and internal presentations
Help document and streamline Accounting Policy processes and procedures, including how the team uses AI tools day to day
Participate in cross-functional discussions (as appropriate) to gain exposure to investment accounting, financial reporting, and actuarial impacts

What We’re Looking For:
Students eligible for the internship will be current, full-time students available to begin immediately.

Currently enrolled in a bachelor's degree program in accounting, finance, or a related field, with a genuine interest in technical accounting (no prior technical accounting coursework or work experience required).
Curiosity about AI tools and agents (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot) and interest in applying them to real business and research problems
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
A willingness to learn and develop industry-related knowledge.
Effective communication skills, both verbally and in written form.
Excellent time management skills and the ability to work independently with guidance.
Comfortable learning new software quickly; proficiency with Microsoft Word and Excel is a plus.
Willingness to work and learn in multiple financial systems.
A team player with a collaborative mindset.

Why Choose Security Benefit?
When you join our team, you’re not just getting a paycheck — you’re getting a career path full of growth opportunities, plus a robust benefits package that puts your well-being first. Here’s what you can expect as part of our internship program at Security Benefit:

Hands-on Experience
Skill Development
Networking Opportunities
Resume Enhancement
Exploration of Career Paths
Personal and Professional Growth
Industry Insights
Holiday Pay

This isn’t a summer-only program; it’s a pipeline into our Accounting Policy function. Because the role runs across multiple semesters, you can grow with the team, take on more over time, and help build the foundation for a career in technical accounting.
