The Trust also operates succession planning to ensure it has the people with the correct skills to back fill rolls as people move on. This role provides the opportunity for the right candidate to gain the knowledge and experience necessary to slot seamlessly into a role within the finance function of the Trust should a role become available. The apprenticeship is also the ideal opportunity for the right candidate to start their journey to become a qualified accountant, continuing their studies post the apprenticeship and making them an attractive proposition for any employer.Employer Description:GMAT is a cross-phase Multi Academy Trust based in Cheshunt, currently comprising two secondaries and two primaries - Goffs Academy, Goffs-Churchgate Academy, Flamstead End School and Oakview Primary School. Across the piece, GMAT currently has just under 3,000 students in its care and employs just under 400 staff. The MAT also operates nursery provision on the Goffs-Churchgate site, with subsidised and term-time only places for staff, run by Ashbourne Nurseries - https://ashbournedaynurseries.com/.
All of the schools are situated within close proximity of each other in Cheshunt, and share many activities, including CPD for staff. One of the Trust’s fundamental principles is that no one school or phase is in any way more important or successful than the other. As such, CPD and other events are rotated through all schools in the Trust, with everyone learning from and sharing with each other. This collegiate and collaborative approach permeates our Trust.
The MAT’s finances are overseen by a highly skilled Chief Finance Officer with considerable financial expertise in the private sector, plus a highly experienced Management Accountant. The Trust deliberately created an innovative Income Generation function, and extensive lettings and business development work now takes place across all sites in the MAT.

The MAT is extremely clear about its daily purpose, reflected in its motto of “no set destiny for any child.” All of our schools, leaders and staff believe fiercely in the life-changing nature of education and work tirelessly to that end, day in and day out.
