Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond are advertising for staff to join them on their brand new car show.

The former Top Gear trio, who are in the process of launching their programme on Amazon Prime, are recruiting for staff to work behind-the-scenes.

New adverts, posted on Grapevine Jobs, are recruiting for a Producer, a Production Manager, Assistant Producers/Researchers/Runners and a Post Production Co-Ordinator.

The ad offers potential applicants “a chance to join an exciting new venture on the starting grid.”
