This month we interviewed Helen Ryan, a Contracts Manager with HW Martin (Traffic Management) Limited, a national provider of temporary traffic management.

Helen is a well-respected mentor and aspiring leader responsible for putting over 50 people to work on England’s roads every night.

Helen has carved out a space for herself in an environment that is traditionally considered to be ‘male dominated’ and has thrived. She is adept at assessing what the company needs and training herself to fill that gap. She leads authentically in a way that earns her great respect.

Helen is an integral part of the company’s Peterborough-based team, providing togetherness and unity. She is known for being fiercely loyal to her co-workers and credits each success to her team.

She is a huge advocate of diversifying the workforce in traffic management and acts as a proactive ambassador for change by contributing to the development of many women across the business.

We asked Helen why she joined the traffic management industry, how she navigated being a career mother, the challenges she faces in her role, and how she pays forward the opportunities she has had.
