Rebecca joined the Motor Circuit team in March 2016 after working in the Motor Sport Marketing team focusing on the Festival of Speed, The Revival and Members' Meeting.
Her time in Marketing has taught her one of Goodwood's key priciples: The Customer is at the heart of everything. It is with this knowledge that Rebecca joins the team and will work to meet the customers' needs for every Track Day that she manages.
What I love most about working at the Circuit, is the buzz from the Track Days and the excitement from each visitor.
