Hochtief serves as the parent company with subsidiaries including Turner in the USA and CIMIC in Australia. At the end of 2025 the firm employed about 61,500 people. Chief executive Juan Santamaría Cases also serves as CEO of ACS. The Spanish group ACS has held the majority stake in Hochtief since 2011.
