How we help
Is GES Consulting the right coach for me?
If you have asked any of the following without satisfactory reasoning, there definitely is a synergy we can work on together.
- The financial reports always show good results, but the bank accounts never have enough money — how is this possible?
- Are we prepared to navigate stringent constitutional obligations, employment laws and precedent-setting court rulings — and do we have all the necessary policies in place?
- Where does the Board’s oversight end and the Principal’s executive authority begin?
- What creative, non-monetary retention strategies can we deploy to combat teacher burnout? How does our employee value proposition stack up against competing independent schools?
- How do we know the Board is moving the school in the right direction? What are we aiming for, and how do we get there?

Meet the founder
Jason Bremner
- Professional Accountant (SA) · SAIPA
- Registered Tax Practitioner
- BCom (Hons) Financial Management · UP
Jason Bremner founded GES Consulting to bring together the two things his career has been built on: keeping an organisation’s finances in order, and helping the people who govern it make good decisions. He is a SAIPA Professional Accountant (SA) and a Registered Tax Practitioner, and holds a BCom in Accounting Sciences and a BCom (Honours) in Financial Management Sciences from the University of Pretoria.
Jason has been working with businesses and schools for a number of years. He is also a co-founder of Bremner Advisory, a cloud-based accounting and advisory practice that now serves more than 130 clients, including SMEs, trusts, NPOs and schools.
Schools are where his governance experience runs deepest. He has worked extensively with school boards and leadership teams on oversight, financial accountability and the line between the board’s role and the principal’s.
Jason works alongside principals, governing bodies and business owners — not above them — and stays on as an accountability partner until the changes take hold.
