Major French infrastructure contractor for roads, metros, and urban transport
Eiffage Route is a large-scale infrastructure operator focused on French road networks, metro systems, and urban transport projects. The hiring surge (360 roles in 30 days, velocity accelerating) is concentrated almost entirely in construction roles, with smaller clusters in engineering and manufacturing—a staffing shape typical of labor-intensive, project-driven delivery. Tech adoption remains traditional (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Infraworks, Revit), consistent with their core focus on design and site execution rather than software products.
Notable leadership hires: Pipeline Team Lead, VRD Team Lead, Drainage Team Lead, Coatings Team Lead, Signage Team Lead
