Cox is a vertically integrated utility managing water supply, desalination, and renewable energy infrastructure across three continents. Active hiring in engineering and construction (47 of 63 open roles) while actively bidding high-voltage transmission and photovoltaic projects signals expansion into grid modernization. The tech stack—SAP, Primavera P6, Azure, GIS tools (ArcGIS, QGIS)—reflects capital-project-heavy operations, with compliance and maintenance optimization emerging as friction points.
Notable leadership hires: Business Development Director, Project Director
Cox operates water and energy infrastructure across 30 countries, with headquarters in Sevilla and active presence in Spain, Latin America, North Africa, and the Middle East. The company delivers desalination, water management, renewable energy generation (solar, hydropower), and high-voltage transmission infrastructure. Current project pipeline includes photovoltaic plants, substation construction, and high-voltage line deployment. Internal challenges center on compliance automation (ISO 45001, regulatory frameworks), construction budget control, and maintenance cost reduction—typical pain points for utilities scaling capital-intensive renewables portfolios.
Cox deploys Primavera P6 for large-scale project scheduling, SAP for enterprise resource management, and AutoCAD/Civil 3D for design. Microsoft Project and Power BI support planning and cost visibility across portfolios.
Cox operates across 30 countries with active project work and hiring in Spain, Chile, Mexico, Panama, Ecuador, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and Morocco. Current projects include photovoltaic plants in Murcia and Requena, and high-voltage transmission infrastructure in Teruel.
