Circuit Manager @Silverstone

I have held my current role of Circuit Manager since 1998. My role covers the management of all track licences, pre-inspections and for all events taking place on any of the three circuit configurations located at Silverstone. I liaise with the international and UK governing bodies, the FIA and MSUK, to ensure compliance with all license regulations from Grade 1 events down. I manage the track licenses and pre-event inspections for all two wheel activities with the FIM and Autocycle Union ( ACU) enabling Silverstone to run Moto GP, British Superbikes and club racing. My team are responsible for implementing any changes to the circuit in relation to new safety regulations. As well as managing all track specific maintenance and construction I am responsible for all Silverstone’s venue buildings,(including the flagship Silverstone Wing), and for managing the power and water supply within the Silverstone Circuit site boundary.
