EY is Hiring a R&D Tax - IT/Software Engineering Advisor Near Edinburgh, IN
Location:UK wide.
Overview:This is a client facing role within EY’s Global Grants, Credits & Incentives Team, specifically serving clients in the Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT) sector. The role provides an exciting opportunity to work as part of a dynamic, successful and growing team, supporting clients from FTSE100 companies through to mid-market businesses in claiming R&D Tax Credits and other financial incentives which have been introduced by the Government to encourage UK companies to invest in innovation.
Key to helping our clients to claim is working with them to retrospectively identify which of the tech development activities they have undertaken meet the specific definition of R&D for tax relief purposes. You will use your IT technical background to liaise with client’s IT technical teams in the technical language they understand, and provide advice and guidance to help them determine which of the activities they have undertaken qualify.
This exciting role will give you visibility on the latest developments in technology through interaction with the commercial businesses – including global household names, Unicorns and disruptive tech start-ups – that are shaping the future. Although you will need to rely on your IT technical knowledge to advise, and to keep your technical knowledge up to date, the role does not involve tech development in itself, and so will suit someone looking to transition from a development to an advisory role.
Candidate Profile:
Our team helps clients identify projects that go beyond routine software development and enter the remit of being a technological advancement; as these projects could potentially be eligible under the UK government’s Research and Development tax relief scheme. Building on the team’s current success, the team are now providing clients with complementary, full innovation lifecycle services, such as patent box and grants.
The Opportunity:This offers an exciting opportunity for motivated individuals with a background in IT and/or Software Engineering to join EY’s fast growing and highly successful Global Grants, Credits & Incentives Team. The team are looking for experienced and enthusiastic IT professionals to be part of a growing and dynamic national practice. This role would suit someone coming from an IT consulting firm or with a strong programming background that is looking to move away from software development and widen their skill set with broader client exposure.
Responsibilities:Your main responsibility will be to work closely with our client’s senior programmers and technical architects from across a range of industry sectors within the technical disciplines. Leveraging from your technical knowledge and industry experience, you will be responsible for analysing technical aspects of their projects (technology stack, as-is/to-be designs, coding design patterns, and development challenges), and assisting them in determining whether those projects are eligible for R&D tax relief (although previous R&D tax knowledge is not necessary). Your main responsibilities will include:

- Highly motivated self-starter, with a proven track record in taking initiatives, whilst also having a collaborative and team building attitude
- Previous experience in working in a client-facing role is preferable, but not required as exposure will be provided
