Using the spectacle of sport, we are sending a powerful and meaningful message to help alter perceptions and speed‑up the switch to electric mobility.

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. Reporting to the Senior Corporate Communications Manager, you will be the strategic architect of our global media presence. As we charge toward the Gen4 era, you will serve as the primary bridge between the Championship, the FIA and legendary teams like Jaguar and Porsche, ensuring our "race‑to‑road" story reaches every corner of the planet with precision and power.

• Global Narrative & Stakeholder Command: You are the central pulse point for Formula E’s messaging. You will evolve our international media strategy, securing high‑impact coverage while maintaining seamless alignment with Team Principals and the FIA. You don’t just manage relationships; 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 environment of the paddock. From the buzz of the media pen to the intensity of post‑race press conferences, you direct the end‑to‑end delivery of on‑site PR activities. You co‑ordinate operations and collaborate strategically across Formula E departments, working closely with Sporting and Events teams, alongside Formula E teams and the FIA, to ensure seamless organisation and delivery of media schedules and key comms moments across the race weekend. You ensure that international press, drivers and officials have a world‑class experience, turning the chaos of a live street race into a flawlessly orchestrated media event.
• Crisis & Reputation Management: You are the calm in the centre of the storm. In a live, global sporting environment, challenges are inevitable; you provide the expert counsel and rapid‑response strategy needed 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, the intricacies of sporting regulations and how to navigate the complex dynamics of a world championship with professional poise. You are proactive in building strong relationships with influential media, identifying editorial opportunities, managing strategic briefings and developing 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 gruelling race weeks. You stay decisive when the stakes are high and the deadlines are 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 strategic judgment is sound. You have 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 escalate, combined with the cultural intelligence to adapt your communication style to diverse markets around the globe.

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
