Optima Office CEO Named Finalist for 2025 CEO of the Year

SDBJ CEO of the Year named Jennifer Barnes, CEO of Optima Office, as finalist

SAN DIEGO, CA – May 2025 — We’re proud to announce that our Founder and CEO, Jennifer Barnes, has been named a finalist for the San Diego Business Journal’s 2025 CEO of the Year Awards.

This recognition honors more than individual achievement—it reflects a leadership style rooted in adaptability, integrity, and a commitment to building stronger businesses across San Diego and beyond.

At Optima Office, our model is designed for modern growth: providing fractional accounting and HR support to organizations that need expertise without the burden of full-time overhead. Under Jennifer’s leadership, we’ve helped hundreds of companies navigate complexity, improve operational clarity, and scale with intention.

Her recognition as a finalist affirms a broader truth: effective leadership today is about more than strategy—it’s about people. It’s about building resilient systems, empowering teams, and supporting businesses through change with the right balance of structure and flexibility.

“I’m honored to be recognized by the San Diego Business Journal, but this award is really about our clients and the incredible team behind Optima. Together, we’re redefining what’s possible for growing businesses.”
Jennifer Barnes, CEO & Founder, Optima Office

We’re grateful to the San Diego Business Journal for this acknowledgment and to our clients, partners, and team members who make this work possible every day.
