Want a finance role where your insight shapes the direction of a major UK transport business?
We’re looking for a Finance Business Partner, on an initial 12 month FTC, who can turn complex numbers into clear stories, challenge the status quo, and bring sharp commercial thinking to the heart of our Bus division. If you thrive on partnering with senior leaders, influencing decisions, and driving cost discipline across a large, multi‑functional organisation, this is a role where your impact will be felt every day.
You’ll own reporting and insight for our central functions including HR, IT, Finance and lead executive‑level reporting for the consolidated Bus P&L and capex. This is a high‑visibility, high‑trust role where accuracy, clarity and strategic thinking really matter.
What you’ll do
- Produce monthly, quarterly and annual reporting that’s accurate, insightful and impossible to ignore.
- Lead KPI development and performance metrics for central overheads and capital projects.
- Present financial performance and key insights to senior leaders and executive stakeholders.
- Run the full executive reporting cycle - monthly packs, budgets, forecasts - ensuring everything lands on time and to a high standard.
What you’ll bring
- A recognised accounting qualification (ACCA/ACA/CIMA) with 3+ years’ PQE.
- Experience in transport, manufacturing or similarly complex operational environments.
- Proven business partnering experience with senior stakeholders.
- Strong analytical skills and confidence working with large, complex data sets.
- Exceptional communication skills and able to simplify the complex and influence at all levels.

We don’t just want great people - we invest in them. When you join National Express, you’ll get benefits that genuinely support your wellbeing and lifestyle:
- Free bus and coach travel across the National Express network for you.
- Complimentary travel for your nominated person (or bus travel for your partner).
- Life assurance and a strong company pension.
- Access to our Employee Assistance Programme.
- A private online GP service for quick, stress‑free support.
We’re committed to building an inclusive workplace that reflects the communities we serve. If you need adjustments during the recruitment process, just let us know - we’re here to support you.
