R&D Tax Managers - All Levels

Location: Perth | Team: Innovation & R&D Tax | Be part of something bigger



At RSM, we don't just talk about innovation. We work with the people creating it.

Our R&D Tax team in Perth is growing, and we're looking for curious, driven, and technically-minded professionals ready to step into a role that's anything but ordinary. Whether you're an experienced Manager or on the cusp of stepping into leadership, this is your chance to work alongside some of the brightest minds in science, technology, and engineering-helping them unlock the funding they need to bring their ideas to life.



What makes this role different?

You'll be more than a tax advisor. You'll be a trusted partner to innovators-translating complex technical work into compelling R&D claims, navigating legislation with precision, and helping clients access the support they deserve. You'll also mentor and lead a team of sharp, motivated professionals, shaping the next generation of R&D specialists.



This is a role for thinkers, problem-solvers, and communicators. People who love diving into the detail, but never lose sight of the bigger picture.



What you'll be doing:

  • Owning the end-to-end R&D Tax process-from client meetings to technical documentation, expenditure calculations, and strategic advice.
  • Managing a portfolio of forward-thinking clients across diverse industries.
  • Leading and mentoring junior team members, sharing your knowledge and building capability.
  • Staying ahead of legislative changes and identifying opportunities for process improvement.
  • Building your network-internally and externally-to drive business development and collaboration.


What we're looking for:

  • A background in Science, Engineering, IT, Commerce, Law, or Accounting-with a passion for innovation.
  • 5+ years' experience in R&D Tax or a related field (ATO or Aus Industry experience also welcome).
  • Strong technical writing and analytical skills-you can turn complex ideas into clear, persuasive arguments.
  • Confidence managing client relationships and juggling competing priorities.
  • A natural leader who thrives in a collaborative, high-performing environment.



Why RSM?

We're a firm that values people as much as performance. At RSM, you'll find:

  • A national R&D Tax network with deep expertise and strong leadership.
  • A collaborative, people-first culture that supports your growth and wellbeing.
  • Access to global resources and a clear path for career progression.
  • The chance to do meaningful work-helping innovators change the world.
