“Our company was built on trusting relationships to support families and communities financially and continues to thrive in a competitive industry,” said Doug Wolff, CEO of Security Benefit. “We have made a series of notable achievements over the past year, including being on the Ward’s 50 list of top-performing life insurance companies and Ingram’s own list of the Top 100 Private Companies in the KC area. We are proud of our Kansas heritage and are committed to expanding our workforce here. We are experiencing strong organic growth company-wide and will continue to recruit and retain high-caliber talent in northeast Kansas that will help ensure we have the right people to serve our loyal customer base now and in the future."
“We have delivered industry leading investment results over the last decade which has enabled us to deliver compelling returns to our customers and shareholders," noted Joseph Wittrock, Chief Investment Officer at Security Benefit. "Our company’s superior financial performance is due, in part, to our 100+ person, high-caliber investment team that we continue to grow across our three locations, including right here in Topeka, Kansas. Expanding our workforce is just one way we aim to strengthen the communities in which we operate.”
