Aston Martin F1 Team

About Aston Martin F1 Team

Aston Martin has been expanding its F1 operation since it joined the grid in 2021, recently constructing a state of the art operation at Silverstone. In a quest to become the best finance team in F1, the search for talent becomes ever more important. The finance team plays a pivotal role in helping to manage the growth in the business and plays a critical part in competing at the front of the grid and managing a complex set of regulations.

The recruitment brief

We partnered with Aston Martin F1 Team in 2023 to support their search for a new Senior Finance Business Partner. Tony Browne, from Aston Martin, shared his experience of our partnership below.

Choosing an agency

We chose to partner with Distinct Recruitment at the beginning of this year, having had a long standing and successful relationship with Alex Alcock and the team. Working in a fast paced and dynamic environment, we are looking for recruiters who are able to quickly interpret our strategy and turn these into a set of requirements.

Recruitment challenges

This environment is not for the faint hearted. It’s as exhilarating off the track as it is on the track.

Campaign outcome

With the support of Distinct we have been able to find the right candidates with the experience, commitment, energy and passion to deliver on making the finance team a great place to work.

Recommending Distinct

In the last 18 months we have recruited in excess of 15 new colleagues to the team. In our first year, we were awarded with the very coveted accomplishment of finance team of the year (mid co). It’s through working with businesses like Distinct that we can maintain the pipeline of talent and look forward to more success, both on and off the track.
