2025 Graduate Programme – Commercial Management

Mace is a global consultant in programme and project delivery, and construction experts. We help lead the way to a more connected, resilient, and sustainable future. Our two business 'engines' – Consult and Construct – bring to life iconic skyscrapers, state-of-the-art data centres, life science facilities, social infrastructure, and regeneration projects that support communities across the world.

The Oxford Science Park is a hub for discovery, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Our new buildings are designed with sustainability and occupant well-being as primary considerations, featuring biodiverse landscaping, extensive photo-voltaic energy generation, and optimised building orientation for natural light and energy efficiency.

In our 'Construct' engine, you'll be at the forefront of bringing projects to life. Primarily site-based, this engine focuses on the hands-on delivery of complex and innovative construction projects, ensuring they are completed safely, on time, and to the highest standards.

What you'll do

In Construction Management, you will assist the project team in the daily control, management, and coordination of construction activities to ensure the project is delivered on time, on budget, and to the required safety, environmental, and quality standards.

  • Producing and monitoring short-term programmes.
  • Ensuring safe project working practices are adhered to for all site personnel, taking appropriate action where necessary.
  • Establishing key relationships with trade contractors, setting up clear lines of communication to coordinate labour and help address issues that may arise.
  • Working collaboratively towards the common goal of net zero carbon transition and sharing responsibility for the proactive identification and management of associated carbon emissions and reductions during the delivery of work.
What we can offer you

Our two-year programme offers structured on-the-job training and real responsibility from day one. You'll work alongside experienced professionals, receive ongoing support from skilled mentors, and gain exposure to various areas of our business.

  • A permanent role from the moment you join.
  • Fully funded professional membership of an association relevant to your role.
  • 22 days annual leave + bank holidays + 2 further 'Mace Days' off + 3 extra days over Christmas, with the option to purchase additional annual leave.
  • One volunteering day a year.
  • Pension scheme (with up to 7% matched funding from Mace).
  • Life assurance.
  • Private medical insurance cover.
  • Annual health assessment.
  • Season ticket loan.
  • Cycle to work scheme.
  • Green car scheme.
  • Enhanced maternity and paternity pay.
  • 24/7 access to health and wellbeing experts via our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP).
  • Discounts and savings portal for hundreds of retailers, gyms, cafés, restaurants, and cinemas.
  • A range of other flexible benefits.
About you

A future or recent graduate with a bachelor's degree or higher in engineering or similar. 5 GCSEs at grade 4 or above, including Maths and English (or equivalent qualifications).

  • Values – safety first, client focus, create opportunity, and integrity.
  • Behaviours – curious, collaborators, contributors, and champions of inclusion.
  • Competencies – build effective teams, embrace change, solve problems, and build trusted relationships.
A world of opportunity

At Mace, you have the power to create a long-lasting and diverse career. From London to Hong Kong, New York to Nairobi, we partner with clients around the world to shape cities and build sustainable communities that meet the needs of the future.

After completing our graduate or apprenticeship programme, you'll have access to our internal Global Opportunities Portal, where you can discover and apply for your next adventure should this be your ambition.

Equality, diversity, and inclusion

Our culture respects equality, values diversity, and encourages individuality – accepting and appreciating all views and beliefs and providing an environment for ideas to come alive.

Our commitment to inclusivity is reflected in our Employee Resource Groups – such as Women at Mace, Pride at Mace, Ethnic Diversity at Mace, and Enabled at Mace – which transform our workplace through shared experiences, creating greater awareness, knowledge, and education.

Help us shape the world of tomorrow
