The chairwoman of the FCC Group, Esther Alcocer Koplowitz, has been honoured by Ejecutivos magazine with the ‘Professional Career’ Award, which recognises not only her role as chairwoman of the company, but also her ability to lead with vision, integrity, commitment and responsibility. The award was presented by Iñigo Fernández de Mesa, vice-president of the CEOE and president of the Institute of Economic Studies, during a ceremony held in Madrid on 18 September, which, as in previous years, was attended by leading figures from the business, political and social worlds.

During the ceremony, Esther Alcocer gave an emotional speech thanking Ejecutivos magazine, her family, with a special mention to her mother Esther Koplowitz, a role model in her life and professional career, Carlos Slim and all the employees of the FCC Group who, with their effort, passion and commitment, have made it possible for FCC to be an international benchmark in services to citizens with more than 125 years of history.

Once again, Ejecutivos magazine recognises with these awards the good business practices carried out by executives, leaders, companies, corporations and associations throughout the year. 

Esther Alcocer Koplowitz's commitment to excellence and business progress has been recognised by various institutions. In the last year, she has received the Business Leader of the Year award from the Henneo Group and the AMMDE Construction and Architecture Award as a Leading Woman in the sector. For its part, the Spanish Federation of Female Managers, Executives, Professionals and Entrepreneurs (FEDEPE) recognised her career in 2024 for her decisive contribution to the transformation of FCC, her promotion of sustainability, her defence of equal opportunities and her modern vision of business management. She has become an inspiration for new generations of women who aspire to lead global companies with determination.
