Sarah Beale

Sarah Beale CEO of AAT

Sarah Beale, CEO at AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians), has a vision to equip AAT’s members with skills fit for the real world. 

Coming full circle when she became CEO of AAT, after gaining her AAT qualifications nearly 30 years earlier, Sarah has never been afraid to take the path less trodden. At that time Sarah adopted an unconventional route into a profession that hadn’t embraced vocational learning. 

Fearless in her approach, an ambitious new 2030 strategy for AAT was launched, which will secure greater recognition for the AAT community innovative products and services relevant to a fast-changing business world.  

Previously, Sarah held multiple financially based roles, before developing into management, and then securing executive roles, followed by the appointment as CEO of CITB, a £300m sector wide training organisation.  Sarah has been a non-executive director and appointed to government taskforces to promote the value of diversity, practical skills and talent attraction.
