TGR Haas F1 Team

TGR Haas F1 Team has been a stalwart of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship over the past decade. With more than 200 grand prix starts to our name, we pride ourselves on being an ambitious challenger within Formula 1 - and we want you to be part of that journey.

The first American Formula 1 team to compete in the sport since 1986, TGR Haas F1 Team made an immediate impression with a memorable points-scoring debut at the 2016 Australian Grand Prix. Ten years later, the team is still building momentum, guided by clear objectives and technical partnerships, and fresh from securing its second biggest points haul in a Formula 1 season.

We’re a racing team – not a corporate machine. We have three HQs – Kannapolis in the US, Banbury in the UK and Maranello in Italy – each powered by passionate, loyal and hardworking team ambassadors. At TGR Haas F1 Team, you’ll gain exposure to many areas of the business, enjoy wider visibility, and clearly see your contributions.

Yes, you’ll learn from us, but we expect to learn from you too!

General Summary

This role reports to the Head of Software Engineering or their designee and is a fixed term contract and is based in Banbury, UK. The role supports the delivery and contribution of departmental and organisational objectives. Responsible for supporting day-to-day operations within their area of responsibility, working collaboratively with colleagues and stakeholders to ensure high standards of service, compliance, and performance. Adherence to organisational policies and procedures, effective communication with line management, and a commitment to continuous improvement and inclusive ways of working is essential.

The requirement for this role is based on a fixed-term internship placement aligned to a student’s year in industry as part of their academic programme and is therefore appropriately defined as a 12 month fixed-term contract under “some other substantial reason”.

Specifically, the justification is as follows:

  • The role is structured as a formal internship placement designed to complement the student’s academic studies (e.g. BSc or MIS in an IT-related field), with a defined start and end date aligned to the university placement year.
  • The position is intended to provide practical, supervised experience within the Software Engineering function, enabling the individual to apply academic knowledge to real-world business challenges while contributing to defined operational objectives.
  • The placement supports short-term resourcing needs within the Software Engineering team, particularly in relation to ongoing service improvements, user support demands, and project activity, without creating a permanent headcount requirement.
  • The organisation benefits from additional capacity during a defined period of operational delivery, while also fulfilling its commitment to developing early-career talent and supporting entry into the motorsport and technology sectors.
  • The role includes a clear expectation of learning, development, and structured experience, rather than long-term employment, and is therefore intrinsically time limited.
  • Workforce planning considerations require flexibility to review future resourcing needs following the completion of the placement, in line with business priorities, budget cycles, and organisational requirements.

On this basis, the fixed-term contract is objectively justified under “some other substantial reason”, reflecting a legitimate business need for a time-bound internship role linked to an academic placement programme and defined organisational objectives, rather than an ongoing permanent position.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
