Biggin Hill, England, United Kingdom

After a successful career as Mechanical Design Engineer and Project Manager I decided I needed new challenges where my extensive knowledge of motorsport and event operations could be best utilised and built upon. In 2022 I joined the Creative and Commercial Media department of Formula1. My key responsibilities being the installation of track advertising, bridges, LED panels and the dressing of all championship areas off track (paddock) working with the partnerships team and external suppliers. In addition to this, my role was expanded to work with TV/broadcast, ceremonies and pre event show teams giving support and producing key elements of the Formula1 broadcast event.Over the past 12 months I have travelled extensively covering 19 of the 24 formula events, I am very committed diligent producer that will not leave site until all requirements are satisfied.
