Mentoring Grounded in Engineering and Motorsport Experience
Career mentoring for Formula One, World Endurance Racing and engineering professionals
At GreenTrack Coaching & Consulting, we offer practical, experience-led mentoring for people shaping their future in motorsport, engineering, or exploring life beyond motorsport. We've both spent many years in high-performance environments, from elite motorsport to advanced engineering, developing people, leading teams, and supporting individuals through high-pressure roles and major career shifts.
Our approach is simple: real conversations, grounded guidance, and practical support from people who've genuinely lived this world.
Our sessions are paid, simply reflecting the time and experience involved in offering thoughtful, tailored support. We focus on readiness, confidence, and practical next steps.
What We Offer
We provide tailored mentoring for people who are:
- · Entering motorsport or engineering
- · Exploring technical or motorsport pathways
- · Progressing early in their careers
- · Leaving motorsport teams and navigating the personal and professional shift that comes with it
- · Seeking clarity, confidence, and direction
Stepping away from a motorsport team, or in fact any role that has shaped your identity and sense of belonging, whether after a few years or a long career, can feel like a significant shift. When the work becomes part of who you are, adjusting to a different rhythm or environment can take time. We understand that transition, and we offer grounded, practical support for people navigating it.
