MotoAmerica partners with motorsports hiring platform to promote jobs
MotoAmerica has announced a strategic partnership with The Paddock Network, the first global platform dedicated to simplifying and centralizing access to motorsports careers.
The collaboration will help elevate open roles within the motorsports industry, from highly technical to entry-level positions, including jobs with MotoAmerica and its teams, which account for seven classes of racing across 10 national rounds.
Hiring in the racing industry has been done primarily through word-of-mouth, leaving talented candidates unnoticed. The partnership between MotoAmerica and The Paddock Network broadcasts job opportunities at race teams and track organizers directly to professionals at the highest levels of racing.
“Motorsports has always been one of the hardest industries to enter because so many jobs exist behind closed doors where demands appear in an instant, and your contact list is the only resource immediately available. (We) created The Paddock Network to unify our industry specialists to create new career paths, and this partnership with MotoAmerica unifies this vision to take our resource globally.” — Taylor Mackenzie, co-founder of The Paddock Network.
Through The Paddock Network’s platform, the wide array of professional opportunities can live in a single place, connecting these teams and businesses to experienced powersports industry mechanics, technicians, and data engineers, as well as professionals from the hospitality, communications, or logistics industries.
“In the past, getting a job in racing mostly depended on who you knew within a small circle,” adds MotoAmerica Chief Operations Officer Chuck Aksland. “We regularly hear from people looking for opportunities, and from teams searching for talent. We continue to build strong connections with universities around the country, and The Paddock Network creates a pathway for students to get involved — expanding beyond traditional hiring circles to find the right people for these unique roles in racing.”
For those looking to develop a career in motorsports, The Paddock Network also offers a “Continuing Education” section that integrates technical colleges, universities, and specialty services to help candidates set their path to working in motorsports.
The Paddock Network’s North American expansion officially went live on April 1, allowing candidates to create free profiles and hiring managers to consider applicants through a streamlined dashboard.
