Job Description
Mace is a global consultancy and construction company renowned for redefining the boundaries of ambition by creating places that are responsible and bring transformative impact to people, communities, and societies across the world. With a robust commitment to safety, client focus, integrity, and opportunity creation, Mace operates at the forefront of delivering complex and impactful projects. The company operates through diverse business units, including its consult business, which combines practical expertise with project delivery consultancy to unlock the full potential of every project they undertake. Mace is dedicated to fostering an inclusive culture, ensuring safety, and delivering excellence in all facets of their work.
The role focuses on supporting the Gateway Development Commission (GDC) as part of the MPA delivery partner joint venture between Mace, Parsons, and Arcadis. Selected as partners of choice for the Gateway Program in New York, the team works on pivotal infrastructure projects, including the Hudson Tunnel Project. This initiative addresses one of the busiest rail connections, serving more than 800,000 daily passengers between New York, New Jersey, and the broader Northeast Corridor. Funded significantly by the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), this $12 billion federal investment marks the largest mass transit project in modern U.S. history, aimed at improving capacity, reliability, and resilience of commuter and intercity rail transit.
In this role, you will be responsible for leading the assessment, management, and mitigation of operational health, safety, and wellbeing (HSW) risks across the program. You will play a critical part in driving change through communication, engagement, and innovation, while ensuring that local business plans align with overarching project goals. The position demands collaboration with operational directors to maintain cost-effective performance, support career development within teams, and promote a safety-first culture. You will also engage with industry stakeholders and continuously pursue improvements through rigorous assurance processes.
Mace emphasizes values such as safety first—ensuring everyone goes home safely—client focus to consistently deliver on promises, integrity in all actions, and creating opportunities for team members to excel. The company encourages open-mindedness and adaptability to meet evolving project and personnel needs. The role offers an estimated starting salary of $170,000, with flexibility around part-time, hybrid, or flexible working arrangements dependent on role suitability. Mace champions diversity and inclusion, inviting professionals from various backgrounds to apply, even if they do not meet all criteria, recognizing potential beyond formal qualifications.
