About Us
Since Independent Benefit Services (iBEN) was founded in 1989, our approach has been simple: treat our clients’ employee benefit programs as if they were our own.
This highly personal commitment continues to define our culture and drive our growth. That’s why we’re different from the typical employee benefit broker. The Advisors in our Rockville, MD and Herndon, VA offices are some of the most caring people you’ll ever meet. They’re also some of the most experienced benefit and HR professionals in the mid-Atlantic region. Plus, through iBEN’s affiliation with United Benefit Advisors (UBA), we’re able to consistently deliver fresh solutions and innovative ideas in plan design, HR technology, research and compliance.
We do the right thing … right.
It’s no accident that independent is part of our name. It underscores the fact our Advisors are free to explore any type of benefit plan with any provider. Our Advisors’ only job is to advise our clients. They have zero responsibility for sales so they can invest 100% of their time in creating solid, unbiased solutions for everything from plan design to ERISA compliance. Now and then, this high level of advocacy results in iBEN earning a little less, and that’s fine. We continue to enjoy robust growth by saving our clients money and helping them sleep better at night. In fact, as budgets grow tighter and compliance gets tougher, our solid expertise and straight-forward approach makes an even bigger difference to our clients. We’d be proud to count you among them.
