This month, we’re shining a light on one of our favourite partnerships, the team at Empirical Tax.

We’ve been working with Jon Connor and the team for some time now, and it’s a relationship that continues to go from strength to strength. Empirical Tax Ltd is a specialist tax and funding consultancy based in Ribchester, co-founded by Operations Director Jonathan Connor. The firm specialises in helping UK design, engineering and innovative businesses navigate the complexities of R&D tax relief and capital allowances, combining deep industry knowledge with a genuinely personalised approach.

From identifying eligible projects and maximising claims, to defending clients during HMRC enquiries and unlocking grant funding opportunities, Jon and his team are experts at making sure businesses get every penny they’re entitled to.

The numbers tell their own story, so far this year, Orca has advanced over £280,000 to clients referred directly from Empirical. And the partnership has grown so well that we recently had the pleasure of supporting Empirical itself with funding for some new business equipment. Always great when it comes full circle!

If you’re in the design, engineering or innovation space and want to make sure you’re not leaving tax relief on the table, we’d highly recommend getting in touch with Jon and the team. 👉 www.empiricaltax.co.uk
