Composites Technician - Trim and Assembly (Weekends a)

• Full-time

For almost 50 years, Williams F1 Team has been at the forefront of one of the fastest sports on the planet, being one of the top three most successful teams in history competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. With an almost unrivalled heritage of engineering and racing F1 cars and unforgettable eras that demonstrate it is a force to be reckoned with, the British squad boasts 16 F1 World Championship titles to its name.

Since its foundation in 1977 by the eminent, late Sir Frank Williams and engineering pioneer Sir Patrick Head, the team has won nine Constructors’ Championships, in association with Cosworth, Honda and Renault. Its roll call of drivers is legendary, with its seven Drivers’ Championship trophies being lifted by true icons of the sport: Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve. The team has made history before and is out to make it again with a long-term mission to evolve and return to the front of the grid.

Every component on a Williams F1 car has to be right first time. As a Composite Trimmer / Fitter Technician, you will be the person who takes carbon fibre parts from raw moulding to race ready, trimming, fitting and bonding to tolerances measured in fractions of a millimetre. If precision is second nature to you and you want to see your work on the grid, we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

• Trimming composite material using specialised hand and power tools, working to dimensions and tolerances from engineering drawings.
• Fitting composite components ready for bonded assemblies.
• Bonding and assembling composite components in line with company procedures and standards.
• Carrying out composite repairs, such as filling voids or repairing damage, using appropriate repair techniques.
• Self-inspecting finished parts to guarantee conformance to stringent engineering drawings and procedures.
• Working closely with other departments to optimise workflow, meet production targets and continuously improve component quality.
• Keeping your work area clean, organised and safe, in line with 5S and LEAN principles.
• Following data capturing processes to stay compliant with regulations.

This job description is not exhaustive, and the job holder will be required to carry out from time-to-time tasks in addition to the above that will be both reasonable and within their capabilities.

This role operates on a weekend shift, Friday to Sunday, working 06:30 to 18:30

What you'll bring:

• Proven experience in trimming and assembly experience, ideally gained in Formula 1 or another high precision motorsport manufacturing environment.
• Confidence trimming composite components to precise dimensions.
• A solid understanding of adhesive specifications and their properties.
• Knowledge of a range of surface preparation methods for composite bonding.
• Proficiency in composite repair techniques.
• Strong communication skills and a genuine team ethic, working well with colleagues across composites and beyond.
• A quality first mindset, with the discipline to manage your own workload and hit deadlines.
