National Express is pleased to announce the appointment of Matthew Ashley as Group Finance Director from 28 January 2015.

Sir John Armitt, National Express Chairman, said: "I am delighted that Matthew is joining the Board of National Express as Group Finance Director. He has been appointed following a thorough search process and brings significant financial, corporate and operational experience. I look forward to continuing to work with him."

Matthew Ashley said: "I have greatly enjoyed being part of National Express' success over the last five years. The strength of our existing businesses and opportunities presented by our new markets, demonstrates that National Express has a strong future and I relish the opportunity to play my part in that as Finance Director."

There is no information required to be disclosed in respect of Mr Ashley pursuant to LR 9.6.13 (2) to (6) of the Listing Rules.
