UK and Ireland civil engineering and building contractor across infrastructure, aviation, and energy
Farrans is a 600+ person building and civil engineering contractor operating across the UK and Ireland, with active projects spanning airport terminals, water infrastructure, and large-scale linear works. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward project delivery tools (Procore, Oracle Primavera, Aconex, AutoCAD, Trimble GPS) rather than cloud-native platforms — a pattern consistent with traditional construction workflows — while the majority of open roles sit in construction and engineering (68 of 78), reflecting execution-stage scaling on active sites.
