Anthem Partners Promotes Hinojosa to VP of People and Infrastructure

Leadership Role Reflects Company Growth and Continued Investment in Organizational Excellence

[Frisco, TX] — March 25, 2026 — Anthem Partners recently announced the promotion of Berenice Hinojosa to Vice President of People and Infrastructure, effective immediately. In this role, Hinojosa will report directly to President Will Andrews and will oversee the company’s human resources, insurance, fleet, and property functions, while focusing on strategic growth and organizational development.

Hinojosa joined Anthem Partners more than a year ago as Chief of Staff, bringing a strong foundation in business operations and organizational leadership. During her tenure, she has played a critical role in managing key administrative and operational functions, including human resources, insurance programs, vehicle oversight, and property management.

“Berenice has quickly become an indispensable part of our leadership team,” said Will Andrews, President and CEO of Anthem Partners. “She brings a thoughtful, people-first perspective along with the operational discipline needed to support a growing organization. She also reflects the kind of leadership we are intentionally building at Anthem—leaders who bring varied experiences, fresh perspectives, and a clear commitment to developing others. Her ability to build structure, manage complexity, and lead across multiple areas of the business made it clear that she was ready for an expanded role.” 

Hinojosa brings more than 20 years of experience in complex, multi-site operating environments.  She has a proven track record of supporting high-growth organizations, contributing to the expansion of a business from approximately $6 million to over $100 million in revenue nationwide, and helping build the infrastructure that enabled a successful private equity transaction.

Over the past several years, her focus at Anthem Partners has been on human resources and business infrastructure. She has led initiatives in multi-state compliance, employee relations, benefits administration, and organizational development, while building HR functions from the ground up. She has also partnered closely with executive leadership on strategic initiatives, including acquisitions, workforce integration, and organizational restructuring.

“I’m honored to step into this role at such an exciting time for Anthem Partners,” said Hinojosa. “Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to work across the organization and help build a strong operational foundation. I care deeply about creating an environment where people from all backgrounds can contribute, grow, and see a future for themselves within the company. As we continue to scale, I’m excited to help build the kind of organization where strong performance and real opportunity go hand in hand.”

In her new role, Hinojosa will focus on strengthening Anthem Partners’ internal infrastructure, enhancing scalability, and continuing to build a high-performing organization that creates meaningful growth opportunities and reflects a broad range of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives across its leadership.

A Dallas native, Hinojosa is deeply rooted in the community and grounded by her family. She and her husband, Anibal, stay busy keeping up with their two boys, Joaquin and Emiliano, who share a love of sports—especially baseball. Much of their time is spent at ballfields, sporting events, and enjoying time together as a family.
