The daughter of Williams team founder Frank Williams has been appointed as the deputy principal of the Formula 1 team.
It is understood that the decision to install Claire Williams had been made prior to the 2013 season, but the death of her mother delayed the announcement.
"Over the past decade Claire has worked tirelessly for Williams," Frank Williams told reporters at a press conference.
"Her knowledge of the sport and passion for the team is unquestionable and I'm proud to say that during her time here she has proven herself to be one of our most valuable assets.
"With Claire being appointed deputy team principal, I know the future of Williams is in extremely safe hands."
Claire Williams began with a media role in the team in 2002.
