Build Pro II and Clubsport simulators in our workshop - taking full ownership from chassis to calibration.
Build and configure the highest spec Gaming PCs that run them.
Test and configure every simulator you build, before it leaves us.
Install simulators in clients’ homes and businesses, and at events, driving the van to get there.
Support clients from build through delivery, and across the service life of their simulator.
Host simulators at client events in the UK and abroad.

Testing and manufacturing new simulator components.

A real interest in motorsport and racing simulators.
A pre-existing background in motorsport and/or sim racing.
Mechanical aptitude for precise assembly work. Following instructions and guides.
Fluency with Windows 11 and simulator software (Assetto Corsa and iRacing), enough to diagnose a fault and fix it with a client watching.
The instinct to find the cause of a problem and long-term solution, not just a workaround.
Comfort owning your work in a small team.
The ability to work at pace across the workshop, client sites and events.
Clear communication with professional drivers, private owners and corporate clients alike. xwzovoh
