Who we are
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 2500 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

The Research and Development and Government Incentives practice is a national team of engineers, scientists, and financial professionals that assist clients in identifying and securing funding for innovation, employment and international market expansion. Our clients focus on advancing technology development in Canada and cover agri-food, advanced manufacturing, biotechnology/pharma and software/IT disciplines.

  • Through interview and analysis of annual R&D efforts, develop a comprehensive and clear summary to reflect the experimentation, analysis and testing performed by our clients
  • Use of various technology tools that includes Teams, TaxPrep, and MS Office Suite
  • Working closely with engineering, tax and assurance teammates to prepare Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) and Digital media tax credit claims as well as other Government grant applications for our clients
  • Develop and prepare job costing and tax schedules for SR&ED tax credit claims
  • Help to proactively align funding opportunities with our client’s business activities and resolve tax related issues through research and analysis of available programs
  • Become proficient with the use of corporate tax preparation software and excel, preference to use of macros, to enable filing of claims
