Women’s History Month
Celebrating Amy McInerny, Chief Financial Officer

As we close out Women’s History Month, we proudly recognize our Chief Financial Officer, Amy McInerny. Amy is known for being the first CFO at SBCERA to lead major technology and innovation projects aimed at streamlining processes and enhancing efficiency.

Amy brings to her role more than 20 years of financial reporting experience, with expertise in process improvement and financial leadership. As SBCERA’s Chief Financial Officer, she is responsible for managing all of SBCERA’s financial processes, including budgeting, accounting, cash management, and financial planning and analysis.

“Amy’s expertise, strategic mindset, and commitment to excellence have been invaluable to SBCERA,” said Marc Bracco, SBCERA Board Chair. “She leads with integrity and precision, ensuring our financial health remains strong for the benefit of our members. We are fortunate to have her guiding our financial operations.”

Before joining SBCERA, Amy held various and progressively responsible positions with nonprofits, a regional payroll provider, and public accounting firms. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from CSU San Bernardino and is a licensed CPA in California.

“It’s an honor to serve as SBCERA’s Chief Financial Officer and contribute to the financial stability of an organization dedicated to serving its members,” said Amy. “I take great pride in ensuring that our financial processes are strong, transparent, and built to support our long-term goals.”
