Name: Becky Cooper

Position: Press Officer for Goodwood’s motorsport events and Goodwoof

When did you start: May 2022 

Key Achievement or something you are proud of
A standout moment in my career was working with the team to organise a press conference with four-time Formula 1 World Champion Sebastian Vettel. The Formula 1 Champion joined us on Sunday in a sustainable fuel exclusive, taking to the Hill in the 1992 Williams FW14B and 1993 McLaren MP4/8. It was inspiring to listen to his clear passion for the future of mobility and use of sustainable fuels within the motorsport world.

The beauty of working at the Goodwood Estate is the stunning environment you are surrounded by.

Day to day life at Goodwood
The beauty of working at the Goodwood Estate is the stunning environment you are surrounded by. The team and I often take a walk around the Motor Circuit, up the Goodwood hillclimb, and venture to the Trundle to see views of the South Downs. I also (try!) to make use of the Health Club after work. 

Sum up your role in a paragraph
The Press Office is responsible for securing quality coverage and raising the profile of Goodwood’s headline events.   From accrediting hundreds of press and media for the Festival of Speed and liaising with social media influencers, to positioning Goodwood’s events as the place to be via a multitude of channels including print, online, broadcast, radio and social media, the job is truly unique and I can honestly say no two days are ever the same.
