TWO of bus firm Transdev’s rising stars are celebrating after promotion to more senior roles.

The firm, which has operating centres in Bradford and Keighley, has appointed Matt Burley and Alex Spencer to new roles.

Transdev says both appointments demonstrate its continuing commitment to develop the best talent within its ranks – including via its industry-leading ‘Step Up’ programme.

Mr Burley, 29, is the bus operator’s newly-appointed commercial manager, and is passionate about providing current and potential customers with up-to-the-minute information to help them make informed travel decisions.

Meanwhile, Mr Spencer, 30, plans to build on Transdev’s success in winning people back to its buses as its new Network Manager, using his keen eye for design and his experience in matching people and buses together on routes across the region.

Alex Spencer joined Transdev straight from university in 2014 as a commercial assistant.

Transdev CEO Alex Hornby is delighted to see Matt and Alex progress within the organisation. He said: “Alex and Matt share a clear passion for making bus travel amazing for our customers, and a desire to grow their experience with us.

“I have no doubt that both have the skills, experience, and focus to achieve further success as we look to grow in 2023 and beyond.”
