How Do I Get A Job In Motorsport?
Motorsport has multiple career paths, from engineering-based roles such as mechanics to creative jobs like marketing. At Silverstone Museum, we look to increase STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) education through our school programmes and exhibits.
Begin by finding an area that ignites your interest and passion and then find more information in that particular area. There are resources available to help you with your search:
From on track roles such as race strategists, mechanics, drivers, and hospitality, as well as the factory team including machinists, designers, and administration. To Jobs outside of race teams include journalists, photographers, marshals, medics, commentators, marketing, and many more. You could also become a racing driver! Whatever your interests, there's a role for you in motorsport.
"Based on the research we have done there is no reason why a woman cannot compete. This is one of the beauties of the sport, that a man and woman can compete on equal grounds. I believe there will be a woman in F1 in the future and I hope we can make that happen very soon.”
