Senior Corporate Tax Associate

Summary

I work alongside Technical Analysts to provide R&D costing and tax advice to a broad range of clients. This involves a full end to end process from analysing costs, preparing calculations to the final submission of the claims to HMRC on behalf of my clients.

I have had over 15 years’ experience working in corporation tax. This has involved everything from managing the whole tax compliance cycle to UK tax planning. My in-house tax journey has led me to work for well-known London based companies in the financial services, software and property sector.

I then transitioned to R&D tax consultancy as I wanted to focus on a more specialised area where I would also have exposure to science and technology. I love using my tax knowledge and experience to help clients secure tax incentives. Working alongside technical consultants, I am also constantly learning about innovation whether this be in software, engineering, manufacturing or healthcare.

Outside of work I enjoy taking weekend trips to escape to the country, visiting museums and fine dining in London restaurants. I also have a huge passion for history so like to explore heritage buildings in the UK.

What Priya's clients say

"Priya is great to work with. She is approachable, bubbly and very collaborative, which helps ease into building a professional relationship quickly. She has worked on our R&D tax claim before, and her dedication and attention to detail are commendable. She is hands-on and has always followed up with the team and myself to ensure each step of the claim goes as smoothly as possible from beginning to end."

"CACI partnered with Priya and Myriad to complete our R&D Expenditure Credit claim for the last two financial years. Priya quickly understood our business and combined that with her deep knowledge of the tax incentive scheme to optimise the value of our claim. This resulted in a total claim substantially more than our forecast. Priya could work flexibly around our corporate policies, such that the calculation was finalised swiftly and collaboratively, with the resulting claim being folded into our existing tax filing processes - as required by our internal controls."
