Find the Right Fit
The internships and careers at Koch companies span across a wide selection of specialties. Learn more about the opportunities in each of these categories:
The first decision faced by accounting graduates is whether to go public or private. As one of the largest private companies in the world, Koch Industries, Inc. offers a wealth of opportunity and flexibility. Our accountants receive immediate hands-on experience in front to back processes for detailed accounting work, including financial reporting, analysis and cash management. Since Koch companies are privately held, we offer you the freedom to focus on long-term success, unlike many public companies that answer to the immediate expectations of numerous shareholders.
Accountants at Koch companies interact with a diverse group of people in accounting, trading, marketing and operations. Here, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the companies you support, including profit drivers, competitors, industry insight, compliance standards and marketplace information. Due to our breadth of businesses, accounting roles are varied and diverse.
Engineers of all disciplines at Koch companies have the freedom to be heard and the resources to convert opportunity into reality. From the daily management of plant operations, compliance, equipment design and reliability, to sales and the long-term planning of capital projects, our engineering professionals contribute in many ways.
We offer you a big picture perspective of challenges, and the enhanced knowledge that comes with being involved from start to finish.
Due to the collective size and scale of Koch companies, our analysts have the ability to learn and practice a variety of disciplines, including treasury, market analysis, finance, supply chain, commercial development, and risk management. In these roles you can develop industry and market understanding; build relationships with traders, marketers and position managers; prepare financial analyses; and advance your knowledge of cash management, financial modeling and credit risk.
At Koch companies, we don’t expect each IT professional to have all the answers. But we do place high importance on sharing knowledge and working together. Here, you can build new business tools, support existing applications and work with teams to understand requirements and translate those needs into solid technical solutions. Specific roles include business systems analysts, quantitative analysts and software developers.
The diverse capabilities and wealth of resources at Koch companies combine to create a unique growth potential. Our business development specialists work to provide valuation, due diligence, financial modeling and business analysis capabilities in the course of leading and assisting M&A transactions, ventures, commercial agreements and growth opportunities.
The point-of-view development and assessment of key profit drivers, risks and synergies related to potential transactions is an integral part of our efforts to offer the best possible long-term value.
With about 67,000 employees working at Koch companies throughout the world, it’s a necessity to maintain a qualified team of HR professionals. These specialists provide benefits and relocation services, consultation and creative solutions to integrate new initiatives and meet the changing needs of a diverse customer base.
