Our Team
Most of our apprenticeships sit within our Operations team - the engine room of how we build and deliver the car.
Over three years, you’ll receive expert training, take on real responsibility, and see the difference your work makes to the team every day. You’ll build confidence, skills and purpose as you shape your future with people who are invested in your success.
On The Job Training
Completing an apprenticeship at Williams is the start of something meaningful - a chance to make real impact in our Formula 1 team while building your own career. You’ll blend structured training with hands-on experience, developing the practical skills and confidence that set you up for long-term success.
Depending on your pathway, you may study at Level 3, equivalent to A-levels and the first year of an undergraduate degree (or HNC). We work closely with local training providers so you can balance work and study, earning nationally recognised qualifications as you grow.
Our Community
Being part of the Apprenticeship community is one of the best parts of joining Atlassian Williams Racing. For many, it’s a first step after school - sometimes even a big move to a new place. Although, once you’re here, you’ll quickly find your place in a tight-knit group that trains together, learns from each other, and grows side by side. And it’s not all work.
We promise it's not all work - our apprentices enjoy pizza nights, go-karting and plenty of social events throughout the year, making the experience as fun as it is rewarding.
Our apprenticeship areas
Our rotational Apprenticeship programme offers a range of pathways. Explore each one and choose the route that feels right for where you want to go.
Composites Apprentice
Composites is where we bring the car to life and shape the future of our performance. Our technicians work with advanced carbon fibre to build and assemble key components - from the chassis to wings and impact structures. Every piece is crafted to exact specs for strength, safety, and speed. With ~85% of an F1 car being made from carbon fibre, Composites is fundamental to delivering lightweight precision and race-ready reliability - turning innovation into performance.
Metallics Apprentice
Metallics manufacturing sits at the heart of high-precision engineering, where you make real impact on race-winning performance. Using advanced machining and programming expertise, the team turns complex designs into reality - from full-size car components to 60% wind tunnel models, jigs, fixtures, and even Heritage parts. This is where problem-solving meets cutting-edge technology to deliver parts that meet the toughest standards in motorsport.
Metrology Apprentice
Metrology is the backbone of precision engineering at Williams, and the space to find your place in true accuracy. Working with cutting-edge tools - from micrometers to laser scanners and CNC measuring machines - the team verifies every component to micrometer precision. Spanning composites, metallic inspection, and non-destructive testing, Metrology ensures every washer, wing, and structure is built to perfection, driving reliability and speed at the pinnacle of motorsport.
Assembly & Test & Validation Apprentice
Engineering excellence becomes execution - and where we create our winning formula. Assembly brings together thousands of components into a complete F1 car, ensuring every mechanical and electrical system integrates flawlessly for reliability and speed. Test & Validation then pushes every part through advanced rigs and durability testing to confirm it meets the highest standards before it reaches the track.
