Job Title: Accounts Senior
Your new company
Your new role
As an Innovations Tax Senior, you’ll work with a diverse portfolio of clients—from tech start-ups to established manufacturers—helping them identify and claim R&D tax relief and other innovation incentives. You’ll be responsible for preparing technical documentation, analysing qualifying expenditure, and liaising with HMRC. You’ll also support junior colleagues and contribute to business development, helping to shape the future of the innovation tax offering.
What you'll need to succeed
You’ll bring a solid foundation in corporate tax, ideally with experience in R&D tax claims or innovation incentives. A background in science, engineering, or technology would be beneficial, but not essential. What matters most is your ability to understand complex technical concepts and translate them into compelling claims. You’ll be confident engaging with clients, proactive in managing deadlines, and eager to grow within a supportive team.
What you'll get in return
You’ll be part of a firm that invests in its people and supports your professional development. Expect a competitive salary, flexible working arrangements, and access to ongoing training. You’ll also benefit from working on intellectually stimulating projects that make a real impact. Whether based in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen or elsewhere in Scotland, you’ll enjoy a collaborative team culture and a clear path for progression.
What you need to do now
If you’re ready to take the next step in your tax career and want to work in a role that blends technical challenge with client impact, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now or get in touch for a confidential discussion about your next move.
