Hey there! We’re [Fever](https://feverup.com/), the world’s leading tech platform for culture and live entertainment.

Our mission? To democratize access to culture and entertainment. With our proprietary cutting-edge technology and data-driven approach, we’re revolutionizing the way people engage with live entertainment.

To achieve our mission, we are looking for bar-raisers with a hands-on mindset who are eager to help shape the future of entertainment!

Ready to be part of the experience?

Now, let’s discuss this role and what you will do to help achieve Fever’s mission.

Meet the Team

AT Fever, the Tax team makes sure we stay on top of tax compliance across the group: from sales taxes and deal structuring to reporting obligations and identifying tax opportunities. We work closely with external advisors to validate tax criteria, ensure accurate reporting and drive to optimize  processes that streamline the finance function. We also define tax parameters for new business activities, solve compliance issues across markets, and continuously improve tools and processes to support the wider organization.

Join us if you want to navigate global tax landscapes, optimize complex business structures, and drive the financial compliance that keeps Fever growing without a hitch.

## The Role

The Global Tax Credits & Incentives Lead will be responsible for identifying, evaluating, and implementing tax credit, incentive, and grant opportunities across all jurisdictions where Fever operates. This role will ensure that Fever systematically leverages available regimes (e.g., R&D credits, entertainment incentives, employment incentives, investment incentives, innovation regimes) in a compliant, efficient, and scalable way.

## What You’ll Do

## Key Responsibilities

- Proactively identify opportunities in existing and new markets, quantify potential benefits, and prioritize opportunities based on impact and feasibility. Map and maintain a global inventory of relevant tax credits, incentives, grants, and relief regimes (e.g., R&D, innovation, IP, investment, employment, regional incentives).
- Lead the end-to-end implementation of tax credit and incentive projects (scoping, eligibility analysis, data gathering, documentation and filings).
- Work with Finance and FP&A to integrate incentives into business cases, budgeting, and forecasting.
- Coordinate with local Finance, HR, and operational teams to ensure incentive requirements (substance, documentation, KPIs) are met on an ongoing basis.
- Monitor changes in tax credit and incentive regimes globally and assess their impact on Fever’s structure and expansion plans.

## Who You Are

- Degree in Law, Economics, Finance, Accounting, or related field.
- 5+ years of experience in tax incentives/credits, international tax, or related advisory (Big 4 / top-tier firm or multinational group).
- Proven experience with R&D and innovation incentives, investment incentives, and/or employment-related tax credit regimes across multiple jurisdictions.
- Strong financial and analytical skills; ability to model and articulate the impact of incentives on cash flow, effective tax rate, and business cases.
- Fluent in English; other languages are a plus.
- Proactive, hands-on attitude and comfortable working in a fast-paced, international, high-growth environment.

## Why You’ll Love It Here

- Attractive compensation package to reward your contributions and growth.
- 40% discount on all Fever events and experiences + free Candlelight voucher.
- Generous Parental Leave: We go well beyond the UK statutory minimum with 16 weeks of fully paid leave for birthing parents and 8 weeks for non-birthing parents.
- Future-Proof Pension: We invest in your future with Nest. Fever contributes a generous 10% of your gross salary, with a 4% contribution from you.
- Private health and dental insurance with Bupa: 100% covered by Fever.
- CycleSaver & Nursery Support: Save on your commute and childcare through tax-free salary sacrifice schemes for bikes, gear, and nursery costs.
- Wellhub membership for gym and wellness access: paid by Fever up to the silver plan.
- Language learning support: English and Spanish lessons.
- Dynamic international team: a young, talented group creating a great work environment.
