H&MV Engineering has tapped around €750m in extended investments led by European private equity company Exponent and plans to recruit across its international operations. The critical power infrastructure services provider said the funding will help its next phase of growth, with a focus towards US expansion. H&MV is at the “centre of some of the world’s fastest-growing infrastructure markets, where demand for specialist engineering expertise and reliable power infrastructure continues to increase”, said John Moore, operating partner at Exponent and board chair at H&MV Engineering. Recruitment will be focused on the US, alongside continued hiring in Ireland, the UK and Europe, H&MV told SiliconRepublic.com. H&MV purchased Texas-based Cooke Power Services this year in preparation for its expansion plans.
