The construction giant has put forward details of a new operating model to begin in January 2026
The Mace Construct restructure is intended to shift focus of the company and improve both resilience and growth.
The company is to be reorganised into three different business units.
The new model will re-distribe existing personnel
The three units will be Commercial, Infrastructure, and Public, Science and Technology, which will allow for easier sharing of resources and knowledge, and streamline projects under each unit.
The units will be headed by existing managing directors Ged Simmonds, Nigel Cole, and Rob Lemming.
Alister Grey will continue his current post in exploring data centre projects in the UK and Ireland, and will work within the Public, Science and Technology unit, while Fitout will be moved to the Commercial unit.
Jason Millett, Mace Group chief executive, said: “Mace Construct is focused on remaining one of the UK’s leading contractors, and following a considered process of review we are moving to a new operating model that will allow us to focus more on what we do best – contracting, construction management and specialist services.
“Following Fitout’s move to the new Commercial business unit, Stewart Ward has taken the decision to pursue opportunities elsewhere. We extend our thanks to Stewart for his contribution and commitment during his time at Mace and we wish him success in his future endeavours.”
Mace have secured many projects this year
In August, Mace received a contract with Hertshten Properties to deliver a new mixed-use development at 85 Gracechurch Street, adjacent to Leadenhall Market in London.
The development will be 30 storeys tall, and is aiming for a BREEAM Outstanding rating.
Mace Construct managing director, Ged Simmonds, said: “Building on our track record constructing market-leading commercial developments in London, 85 Gracechurch Street offers a unique opportunity to deliver a sustainable and forward-thinking office. Our focus now is on working closely with Hertshten Properties and the wider project team to deliver a building that responds to its historic context while meeting the needs of a modern, evolving city and its future occupiers.”
