Mace To Create Four New Divisional CEOs

Mace has announced four new divisional Chief Executive Officers as it looks to restructure for future growth.

The new CEOs will be across the company's four 'Engines for Growth': Develop, Consult, Construct and Operate.  

This restructuring will empower and transfer full accountability to the four engines for the delivery of Mace's 2022 strategy goals and objectives. The divisions will have greater influence and control over their strategies, within the framework created by the Group Board. Each leader and divisional board will be responsible for client relationships, service delivery and overall performance.


David Grover will be appointed as CEO for Develop; Jason Millett will be appointed as CEO for Consult, Gareth Lewis will be appointed CEO for Construct with Mark Castle taking on the role of Chief Operating Officer; and Ross Abbate will be appointed as CEO for Mace Macro, Mace's Operate business.

Further appointments include Mark Holmes as the Deputy Chairman of Mace, and previously announced Richard Bienfait as the new Chief Financial Officer.

Mark Reynolds, Mace's Chief Executive, said: "I am pleased to announce the creation of a number of new leadership roles at Mace alongside some changes to the composition of the Group Board. In particular, I would like to congratulate Mark Holmes on his promotion to Deputy Chairman of the Group. 

"Mace's future relies on us being committed to our succession plans and driving strong and sustainable growth across our four 'engines'; allowing our leadership teams to respond more quickly to the needs of our clients and colleagues."

All of the appointments will take effect in January 2020.
