The Role
We are looking for a Senior Motorsport Communications Manager to join Formula E and lead all sporting communications across the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. Prior experience operating within top-tier international motorsport is essential for this role.
Role
In this highly influential leadership role, you will report to the Content & Communications Director, serving as the strategic partner to the FIA, teams, drivers, Formula E Sporting and race operations to protect and enhance Formula E’s reputation around the world. You will:
- Own the Motorsport Communications Strategy: You shape and execute the global motorsport communications strategy, aligning sporting credibility, competitive positioning and brand storytelling with long-term commercial goals.

- Drive Global Media, Team Collaboration & Narrative Building: Act as a central bridge between Formula E and the teams, balancing relationship management with deep, collaborative story mining. Working hand-in-hand with internal FE teams and Formula E Account Managers, you will uncover rich, authentic narratives and strategically plan long-term communications. You will land these consistent, season-long storylines across key motorsport titles and mainstream media, while elevating driver profiles, building fame beyond the track, and driving momentum around GEN4.
- Manage High-Performing Teammates: You coach and develop the Motorsport Comms Manager who will report directly to you, and establish high editorial standards across all motorsport press releases and briefing assets.
