Senior R&D Tax Consultant

London | On-site

Strong base salary + commission + benefits

Don't stagnate!

You're doing everything right. You're recognised as one of the strongest consultants in the business, you're delivering great work and your clients value you, but somehow that next step in your career still hasn't happened.

Sound familiar?

This is an opportunity to join a well-known and highly respected consultancy where you can continue developing your career, take on greater responsibility and actually have some influence over where that career goes.

The business is in an exciting phase of growth and development, but the culture remains highly collaborative. You'll be surrounded by people who want to work together, share knowledge and help each other succeed, whilst still being challenged to learn and develop.

And importantly, there's no one-size-fits-all career path. If you want to move into people management and build a team, there's a path for that. If you'd rather become a strong Manager of your own portfolio and continue developing your technical and commercial expertise, that's equally valued.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

  • Leading technical discussions and interviews to identify qualifying R&D.
  • Preparing and delivering high-quality R&D Tax claims.
  • Working across the full 360 R&D Tax process rather than being restricted to one area.
  • Developing your understanding of costing and the financial side of claims, with support from an experienced team if this is an area you haven't previously worked in.
  • Working closely with a highly collaborative team, whilst still having ownership of your own clients and responsibilities.
  • Getting involved in a variety of client situations and projects, giving you plenty of opportunity to keep learning and developing.

  • A PhD in a scientific discipline is essential.
  • Based in London and comfortable working on-site.
