The F1 Trackside & Operations Support Analyst is a hybrid operational role providing logistics, operational, and trackside technical support to the Aramco and Valvoline Formula One™ fuels and lubricants program supporting the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team.

Operating under defined procedures and with guidance from senior logistics planners and trackside researchers, the role executes assigned activities supporting the delivery, integrity, compliance, and performance monitoring of fuels, lubricants, consumables, and associated equipment across factory operations, global race events, and testing activities.

The position acts as an operational backup to both the F1 Logistics Planner and the F1 Trackside Researcher, supporting continuity through preparation, coordination, data handling, and on-site support. The role applies judgment to prioritize tasks, identify deviations, and resolve routine operational issues, escalating non-routine, high-risk, or regulatory-critical matters to senior colleagues.

Working in a fast-paced Formula One™ environment, the role manages multiple interrelated tasks within established frameworks, safety requirements, and compliance standards. Decision-making is focused on accurate and timely execution within agreed plans rather than ownership of end-to-end strategy or final technical or regulatory accountability. The role combines office-based support with selective trackside attendance and is designed to build capability toward progression into more senior logistics or trackside technical roles.

Trackside Operations and Technical Support
Provide trackside operational and technical support during selected Formula One events, assisting with the handling, sampling, and basic analysis of fuels and lubricants. Support event preparation, laboratory setup, equipment checks, and pack-down, ensuring safety, compliance, and readiness. Assist with verification of fluid delivery, storage, handling, and traceability, and support post-event inventory reconciliation and return logistics. Escalate technical, safety, or regulatory concerns where required.

Logistics Planning and Operational Support
Support the planning and coordination of global logistics for fuels, lubricants, consumables, and equipment across race events, testing, and factory operations. Maintain shipment plans, inventory records, and tracking data. Prepare shipping documentation in line with trade compliance, customs, and dangerous goods requirements. Liaise with freight forwarders and internal stakeholders to ensure timely delivery and resolve routine issues.

Data Management and Reporting
Support the collection, organisation, and maintenance of operational and logistics data, ensuring accuracy and traceability. Assist with sample logging, shipment tracking, and inventory records. Contribute to reporting, data summaries, and basic trend analysis, identifying and escalating any discrepancies.

Bachelor’s degree in engineering, chemistry, logistics, supply chain, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent years of relevant professional experience in motorsport operations, fuels and lubricants, or Formula One™ logistics support.

In lieu of a formal university degree, substantial and progressively responsible professional experience within the relevant Job Family (i.e. Science area) may be considered equivalent, provided the candidate demonstrates the required proficiency expected.

Relevant experience supporting logistics, operations, laboratory, or trackside activities within motorsport, high-performance engineering, or technically regulated environments such as fuels, lubricants, chemicals, or supply chain operations. Typically 5+ years of relevant experience, ideally including exposure to Formula One™, motorsport, or similarly fast‑paced, compliance‑driven environments.

Experience in collaboration between various teams. Requires up to 6 months of exposure to informal mentoring or peer support as part of professional experience.
