Within our consult business, we harness our unique combination of leading-edge practical expertise and project delivery consultancy to unlock the potential of every project. 

The project:

Sizewell C will be a 3.2-gigawatt power station generating low-carbon electricity for around 6 million homes. It will be a close copy of Hinkley Point C which is already under construction in Somerset. These new power stations will play a key role in our energy future, supplying reliable, clean electricity for at least 60 years.

This is an exciting opportunity to be involved right from the start of such a historic project.

The role will require you to work from London, Suffolk and home and BPSS security clearance will be required.

Our values shape the way we consult and define the people we want to join us on our journey, they are:

You will be an advocate of Mace's value of safety first, and be accountable for leading and maintaining exceptional safety, quality, cost, programme, sustainability and project compliance standards.  You will possess expertise in local health and safety rules and regulations relevant to project portfolio.  You will champion a diverse and inclusive working environment and understand the importance of the wellbeing of the people you manage. 

Client focus - Deliver on our promise: 

You will manage the delivery of key assignments and defined business areas, providing strategic direction and monitoring delivery aligned with overall vision and objectives.  You will support the long-term success of planning performance for specified engines/sectors/hubs, and the overall contribution to the broader company goals.  You will support the planning function in ensuring projects and tenders are effectively planned, scheduled, and monitored. 

Integrity - Always do the right thing: 

You will support senior management in negotiations, contract development and other business development, ensuring that due diligence is applied. You will support the long-term development of strategy for a function or business unit (BU), creating a sustainable business future.  You will commit to making a positive impact for our people, our clients, and our planet, and take ownership for holding others to account who do not uphold the Mace values. 

Create opportunity - For our people to excel: 

You will support your project team and provide an environment to share knowledge and experience. You will actively network, innovate, and seek understanding of best practice, utilising the full depth of knowledge of Mace group, the centres of excellence, Mace way control centre and knowledge hub.  You will develop and maintain effective communication and collaborative relationships with the client and other project stakeholders, both internal and external.
