Backed by TWG Global and GM, our team is uniquely positioned to disrupt Formula 1, bringing a fresh perspective and an unrelenting drive for success. We have the energy of a start-up, with the ideas and originality of a business that always wants to lead, never wants to follow.

We’re building everything from the ground up, from a high-performance car to an inclusive, values-driven culture. We show bold ambition. We combine leadership in innovation with excellence in execution. We are one team. We have the freedom to think differently, the opportunity to shape process and practice, an ego-free environment where people thrive on being challenged by those around them. A historic name behind us. Career-defining moments ahead.

A New Chapter Begins.

Please Note: This is a Night Shift position working 4 days x 10 hours rotated between Monday – Thursday and Tuesday – Friday from 6pm – 4:30am.

Fuelled by bold ambition
Play your part in getting us on the grid.

We are looking for a highly motivated Junior Quality Control Inspector to join our quality team at our Silverstone facility. This is a development-focused role ideal for an individual who has recently completed a Quality or Manufacturing Apprenticeship. Though this is desirable, it is not essential.

This role is the first step in a structured, multi-year development plan designed to build your capabilities in all aspects of quality inspection, metrology, and non-destructive testing (NDT). As a Junior QC Inspector, you'll gain hands-on experience with industry-leading tools and processes, with progression opportunities aligned to NPL training and PCN qualifications.

• Perform dimensional inspections using CMMs, portable arms, and laser trackers under guidance, using PolyWorks and PC-DMIS software.
• Support manufacturing teams in conducting in-process inspections to verify compliance with design and build specifications.
• Record inspection results in the QRS system, ensuring accuracy and traceability.
• Assist with the upkeep of quality control records and documentation.
• Work with the QC Inspection Manager and experienced inspectors to resolve quality issues.
• Contribute to quality improvement initiatives and process enhancements.
• Ensure inspection tools and gauges are calibrated and functioning correctly.
• Follow health and safety protocols when performing inspection tasks.

What You'll Develop Over Time

With mentorship and formal training, you will progressively:

• Operate and program metrology equipment (CMM, Leica Tracker, Romer Arm).
• Conduct goods-in inspections and support NDT operations.
• Gain NPL Levels 1 and 2 and PCN certifications in DPI, MPI, UT, and Eddy Current.
• Support trackside inspection and audit activities.
• Develop the capability to audit suppliers and mentor junior team members.

Driven by high performance:
What do you need to bring to the team?

• Completion of a Quality or Manufacturing Apprenticeship is desirable, but not essential.
• Basic understanding of metrology principles, GD&T, and inspection tools.
• Familiarity with inspection software such as PolyWorks and PC-DMIS is advantageous.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to spot irregularities.
• Good communication and team collaboration skills.
• Competent in MS Office, especially Excel.
• A proactive mindset and willingness to learn and grow within the team.
