As an Event Technician, you’ll travel to F1 events all over the world to set up and support our customers up and down the paddock. It can be hard, it can be intense and it can mean being away from home for extended periods of time. It’s also good fun, interesting and occasionally exhilarating as you work in an environment that the whole world is watching.
When not at events, you will be required to come to our office in Silverstone on an ad-hoc basis, to assist with maintenance of equipment and supporting other motorsport events at the circuit.
Reporting to the Event Leader on site, and to the Race Operations Manager overall, your responsibilities will include:
- Installing and uninstalling all the cables needed to run our systems
- Working with CAT5, CAT6 and fibre optic cables in a temporary environment
- Using detailed checklists and set up plans alongside our customers
- Documenting equipment usage and managing stock
- Logging and reporting any customers needs and changes
It’s a small team and we spend a lot of time together, which means the number one attribute is a sense of humour, especially when the going gets tough. You’ll be a team player that also takes individual responsibility and you have to take pride in your work.
On top of that, everyone who works at our events:
- Is good at problem solving and working to time critical deadlines
- Is enthusiastic and always keen to improve
- Is hard working and committed
- Works to a high standard of work, tidiness and punctuality
- Enjoys social activities with colleagues in the evenings, in the day times, outside of work, between work. Actually, they just like people.
Finally, as the role requires global travel, a valid passport and full UK driving license is necessary.
