Motorsport Talent Network Australia & New Zealand

Build Your Career in Motorsport

Motorsport Careers is building a dedicated talent network for people who want to work across the Australian and New Zealand motorsport industry.

Whether you’re an experienced race mechanic, engineer, fabricator, technician, motorsport professional or someone looking for your first opportunity in the industry, creating a candidate profile helps put you on the radar for current and future opportunities.

The Motorsport Careers Talent Network is designed to support people interested in permanent employment, contract work, casual roles and race-weekend opportunities across race teams, workshops, circuits, championships, suppliers and the wider motorsport industry.

Who the Motorsport Talent Network Is For

The Motorsport Careers Talent Network is for people across a wide range of motorsport roles and experience levels, including:

  • Race mechanics and technicians
  • Race, data and performance engineers
  • Fabricators, machinists and workshop personnel
  • Tyre technicians and pit crew
  • Truck drivers, transport and logistics staff
  • Motorsport operations and team personnel
  • Marketing, media and communications professionals
  • Commercial, sponsorship and partnership staff
  • Event, venue and hospitality personnel
  • Apprentices, graduates and people seeking entry-level opportunities
  • Freelancers and contractors available for short-term or race-weekend work

You do not need to fit into one traditional motorsport job title. If your skills can contribute to a race team, workshop, championship, circuit, motorsport supplier or industry organisation, there may be a place for you in the network.

What Employers Need to Know About You

A strong motorsport candidate profile should help an employer quickly understand where you fit and what you can bring to their team or organisation.

Where possible, include information such as:

  • Your current role and motorsport experience
  • The type of work you are looking for
  • Technical skills, qualifications and licences
  • Championships, categories or vehicles you have worked with
  • Your current location
  • Whether you are willing to relocate or travel
  • Your availability for permanent, contract or casual work
  • Whether you are available for race-weekend opportunities
  • Relevant workshop, event or competition experience
  • A current résumé or CV

The more useful information you provide, the easier it is for Motorsport Careers and potential employers to understand which opportunities may suit your experience, skills and availability.

Permanent, Contract & Race Weekend Opportunities

Motorsport careers are not limited to permanent full-time roles.

The Motorsport Careers Talent Network is being built to support a range of employment types across Australia and New Zealand, including:

  • Permanent full-time and part-time roles
  • Fixed-term contracts
  • Casual and seasonal work
  • Short-term project roles
  • Race-weekend and event-based opportunities
  • Freelance and contractor work
  • Workshop and preparation support
  • Motorsport events and venue operations

Some opportunities may be advertised publicly, while others can arise through direct employer enquiries, short-notice staffing requirements or future recruitment searches.

Keeping your candidate profile current helps ensure your experience and availability can be considered when suitable opportunities arise.
