Description

At McLaren Racing, we're constantly looking at new ways to add value in our pursuit of performance.

The McLaren Racing Finance graduate role aims to provide the ideal start to your finance career, by offering a rotational scheme across our finance organisation as we work together to keep McLaren at the front of the grid. This role aims to combine your passion for competitive sport alongside your desire to become a balanced and highly experienced finance professional.

Finance plays an ever-increasing role in directly contributing to our on track performance, and in support of that, we have a very close working relationship with our operational and leadership teams across our organisation. We work to deliver the right information, at the right time, to support critical decisions and ensure our financial controls complement our organisations progress.

Principal Accountabilities

The graduate role will be across 3 years and you will get the chance to gain experience and exposure across both technical accounting and controls as well as business partnering roles, in departments including:

F1 Race Team Operations and Engineering Business Partners
F1 Manufacturing & Production Business Partners
Financial Controls and Services
Financial Strategy, Planning and Analysis
Commercial Operations

The roles are designed to give you true visibility across McLaren Racing and provide you with an opportunity to develop your skills in the areas that most suit and interest you.

During the scheme, you will gain an in depth understanding of the business, contribute towards forecasts and budgets as well as ensuring the financial targets for the relevant business units are met, through collaboration with business partners, financial analysis, and the application of financial controls.

You will also be enrolled on either the CIMA or ACCA which you will be expected to complete within the 3 year programme.

Applications for this role will close on Sunday 16th March 23:59

Knowledge, Skills and Experience

Your academic background is less important than your ambition, unique strengths, and your drive for a career in finance.

We value individuality and the qualities that make you who you are. You don’t need to be a recent graduate—what matters is that a graduate scheme aligns with where you are in your career and your aspirations for accelerated development. If you’re coming from a non-traditional background, recognising why you’re drawn to finance and helping us understand that change is key

A recent graduate (ideally in either Accounting, Finance, Economics, Mathematics or other numerate degree) or other relevant experience
With a keen interest in becoming a Chartered Accountant
Prior experience in the Automotive, Manufacturing or Engineering sector is beneficial but not essential.

The right candidates will have:

A strong passion for McLaren and the sport in which we aim to thrive
A keen interest to work in the competitive motor sport industry
Confidence to communicate with stakeholders of all levels, up to the senior executive team
A proactive self-starter who can independently manage their workload daily
An ever-learning mindset, looking to take new challenges and solve new problems
The ability to be flexible and on hand to support team members when required
The ability to translate complex financial data to non-finance colleagues

Additional Information

We’re offering the opportunity to work with and learn from a team of highly motivated, top performing finance professionals. We work in a fast-paced environment and do so as one team, with one objective, that we will fully integrate you within.

As a team we pride ourselves on being open, honest and challenging to each other in order to operate at our best. At the end of the 3-year programme you will be a qualified and experienced finance professional who we would aim to place into our permanent work force.

What McLaren can offer?
