At Mace Construct, you’ll be at the heart of bringing projects to life through hands-on delivery. Working on live construction sites, you’ll help turn complex and innovative designs into reality – ensuring they’re built safely, on time, and to the highest standards. Our site teams typically start early and finish in the late afternoon, so adaptability and energy are key.

 The Infrastructure market connects people and places through some of the UK’s most significant transport projects. From major rail programmes such as HS2 Euston and Curzon Street to world-class aviation projects at Heathrow, we’re helping to build the next generation of sustainable, efficient transport hubs. Join us in Infrastructure and you’ll help deliver the projects that keep people moving and shape a smarter, greener future.

• Partnering with relevant stakeholders and being actively involved in risk management and mitigation treatments 
• Assisting in tracking project changes and ensuring they are processed and formalised within the agreed timeframes

You will also work towards completing a Level 4 Construction Site Supervisor apprenticeship, where you’ll achieve a HNC in Construction Site Supervision.

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. You’ll learn alongside experienced professionals, be supported by skilled mentors and peers, and gain exposure to different areas of our business as you grow your career.

Alongside your development, you’ll receive a wide range of benefits, including:

 

Given the nature of our work, flexibility is key. Our projects and clients are based in various locations, so you should be prepared to travel frequently to different project sites or Mace Construct offices. A positive and adaptable approach to travel is therefore essential, as it may be a regular part of your role. To support this, Mace Construct 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 and curious individuals who are keen to learn, ask questions, and share ideas. You’ll stay agile in ever-changing conditions, collaborate with diverse teams, and deliver with integrity while living our values and demonstrating the behaviours and competencies that help us shape the industry:

 

 

We respect equality, value diversity and encourage individuality – accepting and appreciating all views and beliefs and providing an environment for ideas to come alive.  Our strength lies in broad perspectives, diverse experience and global expertise. It’s why we continue to grow and the basis of our reputation as a leading construction expert.

 

Our Employee Resource Groups – focused on gender, LGBTQ+, ethnicity, disability, parents, and military – bring colleagues together to connect, share experiences, and drive change. We’re proud to be a Disability Confident employer, a champion of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower scheme, and signatories of the Care Leaver Covenant and Business in the Community’s Race at Work Charter. Our commitment has been recognised with the Clear Assured Gold Standard for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion.

 

The Disability Confident scheme encourages employers to think differently about disability and take action to improve how they recruit, retain, and develop disabled people. We support this initiative by offering adjustments and support during recruitment, such as extra time for tasks or video interviews, or providing information in alternative formats.
