The Amey Group is being sold by Ferrovial to Buckthorn Partners LLP. Buckthorn Partners LLP is a UK investment firm focused on energy services businesses.

Amey Group is a UK-headquartered infrastructure services and consulting engineering company and a leading supplier to the UK government and public sector. Amey has extensive experience in innovative design and infrastructure management, maintenance, and upgrade, with core expertise in consulting and transport and built infrastructure management. 

Buckthorn will partner in this transaction with One Equity Partners, a middle market private equity firm focused on the industrial, healthcare, and technology sectors in North America and Europe. Buckthorn and OEP say they will invest in Amey to strengthen and grow the business and to access new opportunities, particularly in energy transition, where Amey is well-placed to support the UK’s Net Zero ambitions. 

Nicholas Gee, founding partner at Buckthorn Partners, said: “Amey is at the heart of developing innovative routes to deliver the UK’s infrastructure needs. Amey’s consulting and engineering services are essential to expedite the energy transition by improving the performance of transport and building infrastructure.

Our ownership will bring stability, investment and expertise to grow and develop the company. We have a strong track record of growing businesses and are excited about the prospect of working closely with Amey and its excellent workforce to shape the future of the business.”
