Woking is home to the McLaren Technology Centre, the Formula 1 and supercar group’s 50-hectare headquarters employing around 2,600 people, and financial and business services now make up over a third of the town’s economy. This engineering and automotive presence supports a network of specialist contractors, suppliers, and small engineering firms alongside McLaren itself.
We support Woking businesses across R&D tax credits, contractor accounting, and corporation tax, matching an engineering-heavy economy where qualifying research and development work is common.
Woking’s modern economy is shaped heavily by McLaren, whose Technology Centre and Production Centre together employ thousands directly and support a wider network of suppliers and specialist contractors in engineering, design, and manufacturing. Financial and business services now account for a larger share of the town’s economy than any other single sector. Businesses working with or around McLaren’s supply chain often carry out genuine research and development work that qualifies for R&D tax relief, whether or not they think of themselves as a technology company.
Our Woking client base reflects the town’s engineering and financial services economy.
We are ACCA regulated and understand the engineering and automotive supply chain that surrounds Woking’s economy. From identifying genuine R&D activity to standard contractor accounting, we work with Woking businesses at whatever scale they operate.
