CAT’s sibling brand Autocar has launched a new initiative to celebrate new talent in the automotive industry - and they want to hear all about the aftermarket’s rising stars.
Autocar’s Drivers of Change awards will return on 13 November following a successful launch earlier this year - and this time will champion new talent in the industry.
Held in association with the SMMT at Stellantis's UK headquarters in Coventry, the second edition of Drivers of Change will celebrate individuals who are either apprentices or in the first two years of their automotive career - whichever specific sector they work in.
The goal of Drivers of Change is to celebrate the automotive industry as a place where you can have a thriving career irrespective of your background and to promote the sector as a great place to work for those from all different backgrounds.
In the second edition of these awards, Drivers of Change: New Talent, that can be as simple as having started and made an impact in a first role in the industry - having joined, for example, from a background that is typically under-represented in the industry.
We encourage you to spread the word and consider nominating anyone from your wider organisation – no matter which sector of the automotive industry – who meets these broad criteria and has a compelling story to tell.
Entries are now open - submit your nomination here.
There will be no specific categories in which to enter and anyone named on our list can call themselves an Autocar Driver of Change. Earlier this year, 40 individuals were named in the inaugural Autocar Drivers of Change for their work mainly in DEI initiatives, in a ceremony at the SMMT headquarters in February.
