Our Project Management team provides delivery focused leadership across the Yunex Traffic business. The team is responsible for the tendering and delivery of exciting customer projects of varying sizes and complexity with typical value of £100k to £10m.

At its heart, Yunex is a project driven business. Project Managers in Yunex are naturally entrepreneurial and take accountability for their project outcomes. We provide the human face to customers and build relationships that not only provide today’s innovative solutions but influence the future of our transport and cities.
Our market leading products and services touch many aspects of everyday mobility including city wide traffic network management systems, low emission zones, and electric vehicle charging.  If you drove or took public transport today, you almost certainly interacted with what we do everyday to keep our roads safe and running freely.
