Senior project manager - local government

Winchester
Mace
Project manager
Posted: 9 March
Offer description

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:

From homes and schools to smart motorways and vibrant community spaces, our work with government partners gives us the opportunity to make a real, lasting difference. Our local government clients have shown us what true collaboration looks like - that property is more than bricks and mortar; it’s a platform for stronger, healthier and more resilient communities.

These ambitions don’t come without challenges: tight budgets, funding pressures, complex stakeholder needs, sustainability demands and the constant need to adapt at pace. At Mace, navigating these challenges is what we do best.

We bring flexibility, adaptability and deep technical expertise to programme and project delivery - partnering closely with clients to understand their needs and deliver outcomes that matter. Through cutting‑edge technology, modern construction techniques, and a relentless focus on social value, we help deliver projects that meet today’s requirements while supporting long‑term goals. Projects that stand the test of time and create thriving, future‑proofed communities.

You’ll be responsible for:

1. Delivering client-focused outcomes through robust cost planning, procurement, and effective project management aligned with strategic KPIs.
2. Upholding integrity, managing budgets ethically and driving net zero carbon transition for sustainable project delivery.
3. Managing teams and stakeholders, fostering innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement to achieve excellence.
4. Managing feasibility studies, procurement strategies, and contract selection, ensuring compliance and effective reporting.
5. Managing estimating, cost planning, and valuations, presenting accurate financial reports to stakeholders.
6. Overseeing contracts, claims, and completion processes, driving successful project outcomes.
7. Mentoring teams, embed continuous improvement, and champion net zero carbon transition across all delivery activities.

You’ll need to have:

8. Degree in quantity surveying, project management, or equivalent.
9. Professional membership (RICS, CIOB, APM, ICE) or equivalent development.
10. Proven delivery expertise in property or infrastructure projects.
11. Strong commercial acumen, stakeholder leadership, and sustainability knowledge.

Our values

Safety first - Going home safe and well: We champion a safe, diverse and inclusive working environment, understanding the importance of wellbeing in every team.

Client focus - Deliver on our promise: We own the quality of deliverables, strategic outcomes and build long term relationships with our clients.

Integrity - Always do the right thing: We influence positive outcomes within our industry, while always aligning with our compliance obligations.

Create opportunity - For our people to excel: We champion a continuous improvement culture throughout all activities, inspiring our people and teams to develop.
