Tax

We help our clients stay ahead of changes that impact their businesses, navigating complexity and risk. We deliver deep tax technical, people and legal expertise, while providing the critical context to make informed and compliant decisions. With clients ranging from multinational organisations and public sector bodies to entrepreneurs and family businesses, the work we do is diverse.

PwC’s National Innovation and Capital Incentives (ICI) team are passionate about helping clients obtain the R&D incentives available to support their investment in innovation. Based in the Northern region (Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Belfast, Newcastle, Leeds, and Manchester), we are a diverse team with a strong focus on growth.

We are looking to recruit an individual with a background in Science/Engineering at Manager level with experience of UK R&D tax incentives and are keen to hear from people who are passionate about innovation, getting to know a broad range of businesses and having a direct role in growing our ICI practice.

We are particularly focussed on candidates able to support us in:

• Managing a portfolio of R&D clients and project delivery across these

• Advising clients and internal stakeholders on tax technical points

• Supervising juniors undertaking the work and apprising more senior stakeholders of progress

• Helping to identify and develop new opportunities, including involvement in pitching for work

We would be happy to take applications from candidates who only have the relevant experience in R&D as long as they are comfortable in the knowledge part of the role and would be undertaking training and upskilling to enable them to extend their expertise across both areas.
