Our Vision & Why It Matters

At Alexander Dennis, our vision is to lead the evolution of sustainable on-road mass transportation and mobility.

We design, deliver, and support market-leading buses and coaches that help reduce emissions, improve air quality, and keep communities connected. Every role contributes to that mission whether you're engineering, driving sales, improving production, or supporting our customers.

What You’ll Do

You’ll play a key role in supporting our Aftermarket Finance team, working closely with the Finance Controller - Parts, as well as the wider central finance function. In this role, you’ll take ownership of forecasting activities, financial analysis, and balance sheet reconciliations, while ensuring compliance with ICFR. You’ll develop strong relationships across the business, providing insightful reporting and supporting both operational and finance teams to drive effective decision-making.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll bring strong analytical capability, confidence working with data, and excellent communication skills. You should be comfortable working proactively and independently, partnering with stakeholders both inside and outside of finance. Advanced Excel skills and experience with financial systems will help you succeed in this role.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
