The Irish engineering services business acquired the telecoms division of leading international infrastructure group, Balfour Beatty. This comes on the back of Obelisk's acquisition by Constructel Visabeira in 2022.
Acquiring new UK headquarters offices in Southampton, Obelisk will retain Balfour Beatty's existing team of employees and partners. The company's newly expanded geographical footprint will see the team delivering nationwide services and turnkey infrastructure solutions for clients in the UK telecoms, Irish telecoms and energy sectors.
