At Mace Consult, we combine leading-edge practical expertise with programme and project delivery consultancy skills to unlock the potential in every project, every place, and every person. From iconic skyscrapers to sustainable communities, we turn ambitious ideas into reality.

 

On our four-year Apprenticeship Programme, you’ll contribute to meaningful projects from the very start.

At Mace Consult, you’ll help shape the projects and programmes that change skylines and communities.

No two days are the same – it’s a dynamic environment where adaptability, curiosity and integrity drive everything we do.

 

The Central Government sector demands joined-up thinking to deliver efficient, sustainable and future-ready estates, infrastructure and services. From rationalising estates and restoring cultural assets to building schools, hospitals and prisons, government departments face ambitious timescales, tight budgets and complex political priorities. We combine consultancy expertise with construction delivery to help governments in the UK and worldwide turn policy into reality – creating places that improve communities, support resilience and meet sustainability goals. Join us in Central Government and you’ll help deliver projects that improve public services, strengthen communities and shape a better future for everyone.

Note: While you’ll start in a specific team, client-facing roles naturally evolve over time, offering the chance to work with different clients, teams and sectors across Mace Consult as projects and priorities change.

What we can offer you

Our four-year apprenticeship development programme gives you structured on-the-job training and the chance to take on meaningful work from day one.

Given the nature of our work, flexibility is key.

To support this, Mace Consult offers travel expense reimbursements for business travel, including mileage, public transport fares, and, where necessary, accommodation.

 

We’re looking for ambitious people who want to make a difference. Proactive individuals who think creatively, embrace change, and deliver with integrity. You should share our values and demonstrate the behaviours and competencies that help us shape the industry:
