Customer Service Lead

This part-time role sits at the heart of our racing programmes — helping new drivers get onto the grid and ensuring events run smoothly from a customer perspective. It is ideal for someone looking to gain hands-on experience in motor sport while working in a dynamic, high-energy environment.

You will engage directly with customers who have expressed interest in joining the league, guiding them through the sign-up process and converting enquiries into confirmed bookings. During events, you will be on the ground as a key customer liaison, ensuring participants are informed, prepared, and supported throughout the race day.

The role combines relationship-building, consultative sales, operational coordination, and frontline event support.

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage incoming enquiries from customers and prospective drivers via phone, email, CRM, and social channels
• Build strong relationships and guide customers through the journey from initial interest to race-day participation
• Provide clear, confident information about programmes, safety standards, schedules, and progression pathways

Community & Operational Support

• Represent FAT Karting League as a professional and approachable ambassador
• Maintain accurate customer records within company systems
• Contribute ideas to improve processes, efficiency, and the overall customer experience

Travel to event locations will be required in line with the race calendar and operational needs. Weekend working is an essential part of this role.
