What the role covers

Mace is supporting a large digital infrastructure programme in the region alongside a developer in the data centre sector, and is recruiting an Associate Director for planning in Abu Dhabi. The posting describes complex design coordination, fast delivery and close governance in a mission-critical setting, with programme, project and commercial management applied at scale. The holder leads planning and scheduling on projects of medium to high complexity, oversees earned value management and the wider project controls methods, and advises on complex requirements with recommended corrective action. Plans are built and trends read using numerical and statistical technique, and the holder is expected to keep clients, project teams and other parties aligned on where delivery stands. Data centre work rewards programme discipline, because the sequencing of power, cooling and fit-out packages is where time is lost and where later argument concentrates. Mace's Riyadh vacancy at the same grade sits on a mixed-use scheme and is advertised separately. No salary is published and no closing date is given. The advert was placed on 23 August 2026.
