Are you ready to make your mark in the world of Formula 1?

At Formula 1, we are passionate about delivering the world’s greatest sports and entertainment spectacle leaving a positive legacy wherever we race. Innovation has always been at the heart of what we do ever since our first Grand Prix in 1950. Now, more than 75 years on, the sport remains a pioneer, developing technologies that have made a significant impact on society beyond the track.

The successful candidate will work closely with stakeholders across IT, Information Security, Finance, Legal and project teams to support new sourcing activity, contract renewals and supplier performance. This is a hands-on role suited to a commercially minded procurement professional who can operate independently in a fast-paced environment.

Review and approve purchase order requisitions, helping ensure spend is appropriately governed and supplier queries are resolved efficiently.
Support the practical adoption and effective use of AI platforms within the procurement team, helping improve ways of working where appropriate.
Support contract management, supplier due diligence and renewal planning across F1’s recurring IT spend.
Contribute to the continuous improvement of procurement processes, tools and ways of working across the wider procurement function
