  • Review documentation to support the R&D Tax Incentive claims, including technical and financial deliverables along with complex calculations supporting the quantification of the qualifying expenditure in accordance with the tax legislation.
  • Work with our Compliance team to respond to HMRC enquiries into R&D Tax Incentive claims.

Our ideal candidate will have:

  • Significant experience in managing technical staff up to Manager level

  • Extensive experience of leading engagement teams and developing methodologies to support successful R&D Tax Incentive claims that will be submitted to HMRC across multiple sectors.
  • Strong attention to detail, to enable you to review complex technical information before submission to the client and/or HMRC, whilst maintaining an overall strategic and customer service focused perspective, for all deliverables we produce for our clients.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to quickly adapt to a range of situations and audiences from both written and oral perspective.
  • Experience providing clear and constructive guidance to the teams with which you work to ensure the efficient delivery of high-quality work to our clients and HMRC.
  • Knowledge of wider innovation incentive regimes (e.g. Patent Box, Grants and/or Capital Allowances) would be advantageous.

The package on offer is:

  • Negotiable base salary, depending on experience
  • Quarterly bonus scheme
  • Generous profit share scheme
