Job Title: Capital Allowances Manager Job Location: Glasgow Your new company You will be joining a well-established professional services organisation with a strong presence across the UK market. The business has a respected tax function with a dedicated focus on providing high-quality advisory work to clients across a diverse portfolio of industries. With ongoing investment in its people, technology, and specialist services, the firm offers an environment where tax professionals can genuinely develop their careers while contributing to the growth of a forward-thinking practice. The Glasgow office is a key hub within the wider network, offering both collaborative working and the flexibility to balance office and home-based work. Your new role As a Capital Allowances Tax Manager, you will take ownership of delivering capital allowances advisory work for a broad range of clients, spanning commercial property, construction, manufacturing, and other asset-intensive sectors. You will lead projects from the initial scoping stages through to preparing detailed assessments and supporting documentation. This will involve analysing construction cost data, reviewing property expenditure, identifying qualifying items, and preparing comprehensive capital allowances reports. You will work closely with surveyors, tax colleagues, and clients to ensure claims are accurate, timely, and aligned with the latest legislation. Alongside client delivery, you will help support junior team members and contribute to the continued development of the service line in Scotland. What you'll need to succeed To be successful in this role, you will bring strong technical experience in capital allowances, ideally gained within a professional practice or dedicated capital allowances consultancy. You should feel confident analysing fixed asset registers, construction costs, and property-related expenditure, with the ability to translate technical findings into clear, practical advice for clients. Strong communication skills, commercial awareness, and a proactive approach to managing projects and deadlines will be essential. Professional qualifications such as CTA or ACA are advantageous, though the ability to demonstrate robust, hands-on capital allowances experience is equally valuable. Above all, you will thrive in a consultative environment where building trusted client relationships is central to the role. What you'll get in return You will benefit from joining a supportive organisation that actively invests in your development and long-term progression. The role offers a competitive salary, hybrid working options, and access to a wide range of flexible benefits. You'll work with a varied client base, giving you exposure to interesting and often high-value capital projects. With a clear career pathway, you'll have the opportunity to grow your technical expertise, broaden your advisory skills, and play a meaningful role in shaping the growth of the capital allowances offering in Scotland. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced specialist looking to take the next step in a rewarding and people-focused environment.

Job Title: Capital Allowances Manager Job Location: Glasgow Your new company You will be joining a well-established professional services organisation with a strong presence across the UK market. The business has a respected tax function with a dedicated focus on providing high-quality advisory work to clients across a diverse portfolio of industries. With ongoing investment in its people, technology, and specialist services, the firm offers an environment where tax professionals can genuinely develop their careers while contributing to the growth of a forward-thinking practice. The Glasgow office is a key hub within the wider network, offering both collaborative working and the flexibility to balance office and home-based work. Your new role As a Capital Allowances Tax Manager, you will take ownership of delivering capital allowances advisory work for a broad range of clients, spanning commercial property, construction, manufacturing, and other asset-intensive sectors. You will lead projects from the initial scoping stages through to preparing detailed assessments and supporting documentation. This will involve analysing construction cost data, reviewing property expenditure, identifying qualifying items, and preparing comprehensive capital allowances reports. You will work closely with surveyors, tax colleagues, and clients to ensure claims are accurate, timely, and aligned with the latest legislation. Alongside client delivery, you will help support junior team members and contribute to the continued development of the service line in Scotland. What you'll need to succeed To be successful in this role, you will bring strong technical experience in capital allowances, ideally gained within a professional practice or dedicated capital allowances consultancy. You should feel confident analysing fixed asset registers, construction costs, and property-related expenditure, with the ability to translate technical findings into clear, practical advice for clients. Strong communication skills, commercial awareness, and a proactive approach to managing projects and deadlines will be essential. Professional qualifications such as CTA or ACA are advantageous, though the ability to demonstrate robust, hands-on capital allowances experience is equally valuable. Above all, you will thrive in a consultative environment where building trusted client relationships is central to the role. What you'll get in return You will benefit from joining a supportive organisation that actively invests in your development and long-term progression. The role offers a competitive salary, hybrid working options, and access to a wide range of flexible benefits. You'll work with a varied client base, giving you exposure to interesting and often high-value capital projects. With a clear career pathway, you'll have the opportunity to grow your technical expertise, broaden your advisory skills, and play a meaningful role in shaping the growth of the capital allowances offering in Scotland. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced specialist looking to take the next step in a rewarding and people-focused environment.
