Goldman Sachs Alternatives Takes Majority Stake In Mace Consult

Mace Group has announced a majority investment in Mace Consult by Private Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives through a carve-out from Mace Group. The new partnership will support Mace Consult's ambition to become the world's leading programme management consultant as an independent business.

Mace Consult is a critical delivery partner for the world's most complex and marquee infrastructure and built environment projects, including the Hudson Tunnel Project in New York, Qiddiya in Saudi Arabia and the New Hospitals Programme in the UK. Mace Consult generated £687 million (US$859 million) of revenue in 2024 and employs more than 5,200 people across four global hubs: Europe, the Americas, Asia Pacific and the Middle East and Africa. Davendra Dabasia will continue to lead Mace Consult as CEO of the independent business.

Over the last three decades, Mace Consult's expert teams have advised clients on the development and delivery of iconic programmes around the world; from global mega-events such as the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and Dubai Expo 2020, to multibillion-dollar infrastructure investments such as the Metrolinx GO and Subways rail programmes in Canada and the National Infrastructure Reconstruction programme in Peru.

A number of Mace Group's shareholders, including Executive Chair Mark Reynolds and Mace Group CEO Jason Millett, will retain a minority stake in Mace Consult and will work closely with Goldman Sachs Alternatives as members of the new Mace Consult Board. Mark Reynolds will be appointed Chair.

Building on over a decade of sustained double-digit organic growth and an expansion into delivering major programmes across the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific and the Middle East and Africa, the new partnership will see Mace Consult target strategic acquisitions to bolster its presence in key growth markets.
