Industrial Placements
Do you want to help us to build the greatest team in Formula One history?
All in Performance.
That is the mindset that defines our thinking as a team.
Here's what previous Industrial Placement students had to say...
Ideally, you will be undertaking your first or second year of a Bachelors or Masters degree to be eligible to apply.*
Your home will be here in Brackley, where we are currently creating a state-of-the-art, sustainable F1 campus of the future. Here, you will be able to learn from the best in the business when it comes to Formula One.
Everyone contributes their tenth of a second in our team – including you. Together, we go all in when it comes to learning and growing as individuals, and as a team.
*It is a mandatory requirement that our placement students have at least one year remaining on their course from the point at which they start their placement with us. Each placement also has its own dedicated eligibility criteria – please refer to this before applying.
