Mace combines construction expertise with consultancy to unlock potential in every person or project and redefine the boundaries of ambition. Our values shape the way we consult and define the people we want to join us on our journey.

The project:

Mace is delivering a major expansion programme in Dubai, transforming a flagship development into a world-leading events and exhibitions destination.

We are seeking an experienced senior project manager to lead the delivery of major high-value car parking projects from concept design through design development, procurement, construction, commissioning, and handover.

This is a senior project management position requiring strong experience managing complex multidisciplinary projects and the ability to lead consultants, contractors, and stakeholders throughout the full project lifecycle.

Your responsibilities will include:
•    Taking overall responsibility for the successful delivery of major car parking projects from concept design through to completion and handover. 
•    Supervising the development of the existing concept design through detailed design, ensuring alignment with project requirements, programme, budget and buildability. 
•    Managing and coordinating multidisciplinary design consultants across architecture, structural, civil, MEP, transport, and specialist disciplines. 
•    Driving design reviews, value engineering, constructability reviews, and resolution of key technical and interface issues. 
•    Developing the procurement and packaging strategy in conjunction with commercial, procurement, and technical teams. 
•    Supporting tendering, contractor selection, technical evaluations, and contract award. 
•    Establishing and managing the overall project delivery strategy, programme, key milestones, and critical interfaces. 
•    Directing appointed contractors through mobilisation, construction, testing, commissioning, and handover. 
•    Managing project risks, change, programme performance and delivery constraints. 
•    Coordinating closely with commercial, design, planning, HSW, and quality teams. 
•    Managing interfaces with surrounding infrastructure, access, utilities, public realm, and adjacent development packages. 
•    Chairing project meetings, reporting and escalation of key issues. 
•    Ensuring delivery achieves the required standards of safety, quality, programme and commercial performance.

You'll need to have:
•    Degree qualified in civil engineering, construction management, project management, or a related built-environment discipline. 
•    Professional membership or chartership such as CIOB, RICS, ICE, APM or PMP is advantageous. 
•    Significant experience delivering large, complex building or infrastructure projects in a senior project management capacity. 
•    Strong experience across design development, procurement, and construction delivery, rather than purely construction-stage management. 
•    Experience within a PMC, consultancy, developer or major project environment preferred. 
•    Strong knowledge of multidisciplinary design coordination and construction interfaces. 
•    Experience of major parking structures, transport facilities, podiums, complex concrete structures or similar large-scale assets would be highly advantageous.
