Global infrastructure operator spanning highways, airports, and energy assets
Ferrovial operates a 70-year-old infrastructure portfolio across North America, Europe, and select emerging markets, with over 22,500 employees managing toll roads, airport terminals, and power transmission assets. The tech stack reveals a classic enterprise-infrastructure maturity: SAP dominance (core ERP + RISE migration), GIS/BIM for asset modeling, and emerging adoption of SD-WAN, SASE, and IoT—positioning the company to move from manual field operations toward real-time asset monitoring. Engineering roles dominate hiring (149 of 345 active), but the presence of data (4), finance (17), and ops (61) roles signals internal pressure around project cost control, compliance tracking, and seasonal maintenance planning.
