Amanda Amos Benard

Finance leader and financial controller with a track record of shortening month-end close cycles, strengthening internal controls, and delivering timely financial insights that guide strategic decisions for high-growth companies.

With primary experience in SaaS, manufacturing, and advertising, and work across other corporate environments, I bring a unique combination of technical accounting excellence and strategic business partnership. I have completed multiple audits resulting in clean opinions, including a first‑year audit, and have supported both private equity‑backed and publicly traded companies. My expertise spans U.S. GAAP & IFRS reporting, full‑cycle accounting operations, financial analysis, and building scalable finance processes that support rapid organizational growth. Specialized experience in M&A due diligence, post‑acquisition integration, and quality‑of‑earnings preparation positions me to navigate complex transactions and growth scenarios.

I began my career in public accounting as an auditor at a BDO Alliance firm, which provided a strong foundation in audit, controls, and financial reporting. Throughout my career, I have led financial operations, implemented robust internal controls, managed complex audits, and partnered with executive leadership to drive informed decision-making. I have had direct reports since my time at Advanced Integration Technology (AIT), and across subsequent roles I have been responsible for hiring, coaching, and developing high-performing finance teams. With over 5 years of proven remote work experience since 2020, I have managed internal teams and outsourced partners while maintaining proactive communication and the ability to drive results in distributed environments. I excel at leveraging modern automation tools and transforming financial data into actionable insights that fuel business strategy and sustainable growth.
