At Mace, we’re global experts in shaping the built environment – helping to lead the way to a more connected, resilient and sustainable world. From development and consultancy, to construction and operations, we connect expertise across the entire property lifecycle to help our clients, people, communities and society achieve more than they believe is possible.
This role is a 12-month industrial placement starting in late June 2024, and is based on-site at HS2 Curzon Street Station in Birmingham within our Construct engine.
The landmark HS2 Curzon Street Station, which will be net zero carbon in operation, will be the first brand new intercity terminus station built in Britain since the 19th century. Mace Dragados Joint Venture (MDJV) commenced the construction phase of the station in 2024, which will sit at the heart of the high-speed rail network.
Curzon Street will be the catalyst for development for Birmingham’s Eastside and Digbeth quarters, bringing seamless connectivity and kickstarting wider regeneration in the area.
The health, safety and wellbeing of our people is at the foundation of everything we do. Driven by Mace’s ‘Safety first’ value, we are clear that our people and supply chain must go home safe and well at the end of every day. We are redefining the boundaries of ambition for our industry, continuing to build on our health, safety and wellbeing culture as we do so. This takes visible leadership, innovation and the commitment of every single one of our people, partners and clients.
In our Construct engine, you’ll be right where the action unfolds. We turn blueprints into tangible reality, coordinating on-site operations and logistics that make projects come alive. From building more safely and sustainably to adopting radical new methods of offsite delivery, our construct engine is leading the way in our sector. Based mainly on-site, we thrive on creating opportunity and building with purpose to deliver for our clients.
In Health, Safety and Wellbeing, you will play a key role in supporting the Health, Safety and Wellbeing (HSW) Team and projects. Some of your main responsibilities will include:
We’re looking for ambitious people who want to make a difference in the world. Proactive people who aren’t afraid of barriers, innovate, and have a genuine passion for service excellence. And those who embody the same values, behaviours and competencies as us to proudly move our industry forward:
As our projects are spread across different locations, your work base will be flexible, and travel may be required to various project sites or Mace offices. It’s therefore important to have a positive and flexible approach towards travel.
We see every challenge as an opportunity to dream bigger and bring ambitions to life. When you start your journey with us, you’ll get structured on-the-job training and real responsibility, right from the get-go. With support from industry-leading colleagues, and a wealth of exposure to the variety of services we offer our clients, we’ll invest in you and your future. No holding back.
As an industrial placement you will be supported through a yearlong programme which will focus on your development as well as exposure to the business area that you join. And, if you perform well during your placement, you could be fast-tracked onto our Graduate Programme.
As well as benefiting from our formal development programme, we offer:
Here at Mace, you have the power to create a long-lasting and diverse career. From London to Hong Kong, New York to Nairobi, we work with clients around the world to shape cities and build sustainable communities that meet the needs of the future.
