Jumpstart opens NW England regional office

Edinburgh-based R&D (research and development) tax relief specialist Jumpstart has expanded its UK footprint with the opening of a regional office in Manchester. The new premises, located on the 13th Floor of the city’s Piccadilly Plaza, will provide the company with an ideal base to service its growing list of clients across the North West of England.

Providing innovative businesses with advice and support on R&D tax relief claims, Jumpstart has been operating across the North West since 2008 and has an existing team of three business development managers servicing the area.

Its current clients in the region include Manchester firm Leven Consultants, Merseyside-based Beverston Engineering, Moorhouse’s Brewery in Burnley and UK Insulations in Blackburn.

Jumpstart has also developed close links with a number of business groups across the region including Digital Lancashire. The firm has announced a new sponsorship deal with the organisation which supports entrepreneurs and digital companies throughout the county.

With its headquarters in Edinburgh Jumpstart also operates an office in Birmingham servicing clients across the Midlands.

Jumpstart managing director Scott Henderson, said: “The investment in the new Manchester office underlines our commitment to further grow our business across the North West of England. The area is rich in technology and manufacturing companies which can significantly benefit from R&D tax relief. In the 10 years we’ve been operating in the region we have built our team, established a close relationship within the local business community and helped innovative companies here secure millions of pounds worth of tax credits.”
