What the role covers

Mace is providing project management consultancy on new build stadiums, several stadium redevelopments and the wider precinct work around them in Riyadh, and is recruiting a Planning Lead. The programme covers new stadiums, added capacity at existing grounds, mixed-use amenities and a transfer of knowledge intended to keep the venues running well after construction ends. The role leads planning and scheduling delivery, applies advanced planning methods and tools, and drives project controls and earned value performance. It influences complex requirements and the corrective action taken when delivery slips, secures client agreement to recommendations, and manages and develops the planning team. Mace asks for professional membership or equivalent development, proven planning and delivery experience, and strong leadership together with commercial and stakeholder management. Stadium programmes are unforgiving on time because the opening date is fixed by an event, and the planning function carries that pressure. No salary is published and no closing date is given. The advert was placed on 15 August 2026.
