If you are a driven safety professional looking for a career-defining role on a world-class infrastructure project — this is it.

About Mace Construct

Mace is not your average construction company. Founded on the belief that the built environment could be more efficient, innovative, and responsible, Mace has built a global reputation for delivering projects safer, faster, and greener. As innovators and trusted construction partners, they transform industries, support communities, and leave lasting legacies. Joining Mace means joining a team that genuinely redefines the boundaries of ambition.

About The Project

This role sits at the heart of the HS2 Euston Station project — one of the UK's most significant infrastructure programmes. As construction partner for the new Euston Station, MDJV is working alongside HS2 Ltd and design partners to deliver:

  • New platforms and concourse structures
  • Interchange links to London Underground and National Rail

This is a once-in-a-career opportunity for a senior health and safety professional to make a real mark on a nationally transformative project.

Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the lead H&S advisor for your area — keeping the team updated on new developments and applying professional standards for best practice
  • Maintain core areas of HSE expertise and share knowledge to develop, train, and mentor others
  • Apply H&S tools and techniques, define local strategies, and drive continuous improvement in project safety performance
  • Provide practical H&S advice to MDJV and project managers to help them achieve project objectives
  • Interpret and advise on contractual and statutory H&S requirements to protect project integrity
  • Build and maintain strong internal and external relationships to maximise the influence of HSE expertise
  • Establish and nurture relationships with clients, partners, and suppliers to support the achievement of project targets
  • Champion a positive safety culture across the project at all levels

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
