Motorsport Communications Manager

The Role

Are you a high-impact communications leader ready to command the global narrative of the world’s most innovative racing series? We are looking for a Motorsport Communications Manager to join the Formula E team. This isn’t just a PR role; it is a high‑visibility leadership position at the intersection of elite sport, sustainability and technological revolution.

Global Narrative & Stakeholder Command: You are the central pulse point for Formula E’s messaging. You will evolve our international media strategy, secure high‑impact coverage while maintaining seamless alignment with Team Principals and the FIA. You cultivate a unified ecosystem where every stakeholder, from local promoters to global governing bodies, speaks with one voice.

Race‑Week Operations Leadership: You lead the “ground game” in the high‑pressure paddock environment. From the media pen to post‑race press conferences, you direct the end‑to‑end delivery of on‑site PR activities, coordinate operations, and collaborate strategically across Formula E departments, sporting and events teams, and the FIA to ensure seamless media schedules and key comms moments throughout the race weekend.

Crisis & Reputation Management: You are the calm in the centre of the storm. In a live, global sporting environment, challenges are inevitable; you provide expert counsel and rapid‑response strategy to protect the brand’s integrity. Between races, you transition into a proactive storyteller, overseeing the creation of journalist‑grade media guides and press releases that highlight our leadership in electric mobility.

What we're looking for in you:

• The Motorsport Specialist: You possess significant, progressive experience in communications and media management within the motorsport industry or a top‑tier global sport. You understand the nuances of the paddock, sporting regulations, and the dynamics of a world championship. You proactively build strong relationships with influential media, identify editorial opportunities, manage strategic briefings, and develop spokesperson narratives.
• The Strategic "Road Warrior": You thrive under the lights of a live international broadcast. With a deep network of international editors and influencers already in your contact list, you are ready to embrace a global lifestyle, travelling to iconic host cities and maintaining peak performance across grueling race weeks. You stay decisive when stakes are high and deadlines tight.
• The Elite Storyteller: You are a master of journalist‑quality copy. Whether drafting a high‑stakes Q&A for senior leadership or approving a comprehensive media guide, your writing is impeccable and your judgment is sound. You possess the technical literacy to translate complex electric mobility themes into compelling narratives for a mainstream audience.
• The Influential Leader: You possess a confident, high‑energy presence that commands respect from drivers, C‑suite executives and high‑profile celebrities alike. You are a proactive problem‑solver who anticipates reputational risks before they erupt, combining cultural intelligence to adapt your communication style to diverse worldwide markets.

What's in it for you?

• 25 days annual leave, birthday day off and wellbeing leave
• Opportunity to extend your stay if travelling for a race event
• Health Cash Plan and access to the Aviva Digital Workplace app
• Enhanced parental leave
• Flexible bank holidays
• Paid volunteer and carer’s leave
• Cycle to Work and Electric Car Scheme
• Formula E store discount
• Regular social events and employee working groups

We will provide equal opportunities regardless of an individual's protected characteristics.
