* Working with the relevant client contacts to gather detailed financial, HR and any other data to facilitate the calculation of the relief, including where necessary designing methodologies for quantifying the eligible R&D expenditure

* Preparing and reviewing structured reports in support of the claims made, including descriptions of the R&D projects identified and setting out why the projects are considered eligible for relief

* Contacting and liaising directly with HM Revenue and Customs on behalf of clients to discuss and obtain agreement of the claims, including attending meetings, telephone calls and drafting written correspondence

Ideal requirements for R&D Tax Manager:

* Science or Engineering Postgraduate Degree

* Excellent knowledge of UK R&D tax relief schemes and claim quantification

* Proven experience of managing several projects simultaneously, and experience working within a business unit with internal and external clients
