Trust Accountant

Endeavour Multi-Academy Trust are seeking to appoint a Trust Accountant into the team to support a remarkable and unique community of schools that form the MAT.

The Trust currently operates four special schools: Two Rivers High and Primary schools (including a nursery) on two sites in Tamworth; Cherry Trees School (primary) in Wombourne; and nearby Wightwick Hall School (secondary) in the leafy outskirts of Wolverhampton.

The Trust is in a strong financial position, with annual income of almost £15 million, a healthy reserves balance and a well-earned reputation for excellence. Since our Trust was established in 2017, all stakeholders have worked tirelessly to encourage and support everyone in our learning community to be the best they can be: staff, trustees, local governors and, of course, our wonderful pupils. We are incredibly proud of what our Trust and our schools have achieved and are excited about recruiting a Trust Accountant to support with the next phase of our growth and development.

We have received interest from mainstream schools about joining our Trust and we are at varying stages of academy conversion with a number of new schools. It is this expansion of the Trust that has led to this recruitment; we are looking to appoint an individual who will provide additional valuable expertise and capacity to the central finance function, ensuring that we are able to effectively support the vision for the growth of the Trust.

We are highly motivated by the opportunities ahead of us, realistic about the challenges we face and ready to support our Trust Accountant in their new role.

I sincerely hope that your initial interest will be converted into a formal application. To support this our website expands on the Trust’s visions and values and please do read on through the candidate information pack and job description.
