Jill Beresford
Jill Beresford became the CEO and chairman of the board of a publicly held corporation during the 1990s. The company teetered on the brink of bankruptcy and she was successful in turning it around into profitability. At that time, only 3 percent of the world’s companies were led by female CEOs. Today, that number is only 5 percent. Most recently, the American Small Business Development Centers recognized Jill as the top small business advisor in Massachusetts, where she was awarded the coveted State Star Performer award. Prior to her small-business advising focus, Jill spent 25 years successfully working in the turnaround and restructuring industry, filling the positions of CEO, CFO, CRO, and/or CMO. Jill has worked in a wide variety of corporate environments, including private, public, international, startup, family-held businesses, Chapter 11 bankruptcies, orderly liquidations, and turnaround situations. Jill received her M.B.A. from Boston University.
