Working alongside experienced consultants, managers, engineers, and tax professionals, you will support innovative companies across a wide range of industries to understand their research and development activities and maximize available incentives.

This is an excellent opportunity for a graduate who enjoys problem-solving, analysing data, engaging with technical professionals, and learning how innovation and tax policy intersect to support business growth.

The role is project-based and may involve spending time at client sites, working directly with engineers, scientists, software developers, and other technical specialists to understand their projects and document qualifying activities.

  • Assist in drafting project summaries and technical reports that support R&D tax credit claims.
  • Respond to client requests and help deliver projects on time and to a high standard.
  • Participate in meetings with client finance, tax, and technical teams.
  • Collaborate with colleagues across Federal Income Tax and International Tax teams on broader client projects where required.

Value

  • Assist senior team members in developing client proposals, presentations, and planning strategies.
  • Support project planning activities and help manage key deliverables.
  • Gather, organize, and analyse large volumes of financial and project-related data.
  • Build and maintain detailed calculation models using Microsoft Excel and other analytical tools.
  • Assist in evaluating project costs and activities for qualification under relevant R&D tax legislation.
  • Support the preparation of R&D tax credit calculations and client deliverables.
  • Conduct research into tax, technical, and industry-related topics.
  • Perform other duties and project work as assigned.

Education and Experience:

  • No prior R&D tax experience required.
  • A bachelor's degree is required, with a strong academic record. Candidates pursuing or holding a master's degree in a relevant discipline are also encouraged to apply.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Curiosity and a genuine interest in innovation, technology, and business.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively in a project-based environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
  • A collaborative mindset and willingness to learn from experienced professionals.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
  • Ability to analyse data and communicate complex information clearly to different audiences.
