Alex is new trent barton Director

Alex (28) hails from Liverpool and is a graduate of Aston University in Transport Management.  During his time at university, he gained his PCV licence and drove buses at Travel West Midlands in Birmingham, offering him a truly  grounded approach to the needs of customers and the work of driving staff. He then joined Stagecoach as a Graduate Management Trainee, in turn becoming Assistant Operations Manager in Canterbury and then in Manchester.  In 2006 Alex left Stagecoach to take up a promotion with the Go-Ahead group as Operations Manager of Bluestar, the main bus company in Southampton and South Hampshire.

A founder member of the Young Bus Managers' Network, which brings together similarly minded people across the UK to share best practice in the bus sector, as well having a keen interest in transport and travel - exploring both the UK and North America - he enjoys live music, modern design and keeping fit. Alex will be deliberately taking up residence along our indigo route near Beeston along with his wife of nearly a year, Rachel.

Alex said:   "I am very excited at the prospect of joining one of the UK's most admired and successful transport companies. trent barton has been continually held in high regard for their attention to excellence in customer service, local management and innovative ideas. Being a part of this vibrant business in a senior role, hopefully having the opportunity to take things to an even better level, and meeting our customers and working with the many great people inside the business, is something I am very much looking forward to!"
