If you thrive in environments where people value learning and are committed to continuously improve daily operations, join us and be a part of our journey.

APM Terminals Barcelona operates the Muelle Sur Container Terminal at the Port of Barcelona, with an annual throughput capacity of 1,560,000 TEU. Following the extension of the terminal’s concession agreement until 2036, APM Terminals is progressing a multi-year investment programme focused on infrastructure and container-handling equipment. The programme includes civil and electrical engineering works delivered within a busy, continuously operating port environment.
