What happened

Greater Manchester Combined Authority awarded this contract to The Growth Company worth £60,000 on 29 Aug 2025. The contract runs until 30 Sept 2026.

Description

The Greater Manchester Levy Matchmaking Service was launched in August 2018 to provide an online portal that facilitated the transfer of Apprenticeship Levy funds between large levy paying employers and non or smaller levy paying employers who had run out of funding as per national Apprenticeship Funding Rules. This allows unspent apprenticeship levy to stay within the GM Apprenticeship landscape rather than being returned to a central Treasury pot.

It comprises an online portal (Home | GM Levy Matchmaking Service (levymatchfinder.co.uk)) and a member of staff that supports and advises employers to help them navigate the system.
