Our Story

Redefine the boundaries of ambition

This is our purpose. This is our promise. This is our legacy.

At Mace, we see every challenge as an opportunity to dream bigger and bring our ambitions to life. We believe our only limits are the ones we give ourselves.

To redefine the boundaries of ambition
"At Mace, we have the opportunity to take action. Collaborating with our clients to dream bigger, solving problems in fresh ways."

Since day one we have relentlessly pursued a better way. We were founded out of a belief that the industry could be more efficient, innovative and responsible and over the last 33 years Mace has built a reputation and track record for delivering projects faster, safer and better than ever before.

We connect expertise across the entire property and infrastructure lifecycle to help our clients, people, communities and society achieve more than they believe possible. It is our incredible breadth, scale and diversity of experience that enables us to quickly and effectively respond to market needs and challenge the status quo.

From Olympic parks and iconic skyscrapers to state-of-the-art data centres, schools, hospitals and homes, we recognise that now more than ever we must be bolder, braver and more resilient as we act on new challenges and navigate through a rapidly changing world.

Today, we remain a privately owned business that has grown organically across four global hubs in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, the Americas and Asia Pacific. The driving force behind our success is our people who, with their collective expertise, push us to think differently and bravely lead the way.  

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.

Together, we find a way to unleash the potential within every place, project and person – inspiring the stories that shape our lives and change our world. Because the ambitions we chase today will build the world we live in tomorrow.


Our values

Our culture defines how we operate for our clients, our partners and the communities we work with. Our purpose and our priorities provide our direction, while our four values guide our behaviour and culture.

Our values permeate through everything we do, including our relationships with our clients, our partners, our suppliers and the communities where we work.

Going home safe and well

Deliver on our promise 

For our people to excel 

Aways do the right thing 


Our Strategy

The world is changing. This is how Mace is responding.

From the beginning Mace has been shaped around a clear purpose. For over 30 years we have pursued a better way – challenging ourselves to dream bigger, transform and innovate.

As the world around us changes and new challenges arise, we believe we have a greater responsibility than ever before to create opportunities for communities to thrive, and we have a role to play in doing so sustainably.

Our 2026 Mace Business Strategy outlines our ambitious plans for the next five years as a purpose-driven business committed to leaving a lasting legacy for people and the planet.

Our Strategic Priorities

We're living out our purpose through three strategic priorities. Pursue a sustainable world. Grow together. Deliver distinctive value. Our unwavering focus on these grounds our purpose in the actions we take every day. 

Pursue a sustainable world

Our planet has now reached a tipping point. The built environment holds many of the keys to a sustainable world, but bold action is needed – and fast. In an industry that’s been slow to adjust, we’re taking a lead – committing ourselves to bigger, bolder goals so that we, our clients and partners are all part of creating a world where communities thrive now, and for generations to come.

Grow together

Our people are the heart of our business. While we share ambitions as a collective, we also have ambitions as individuals. The same is true for all the other people that our work touches. We empower and encourage each other, our clients and everyone we work with to embrace challenge and look beyond the boundaries of today.

Deliver distinctive value

Results for clients. Service excellence. These goals drive every Engine of our business. We never stop challenging ourselves to innovate, improve and exceed expectations. This means we’re not only creating a more resilient and competitive business, our people are also leading and transforming our industry to help drive wider benefits for the suppliers, partners and communities we work with.
