Assistant Corporate Tax Manager

Joe Lock | Corporate Tax Accountant | Randall & Payne

Changing his career choice from a Lab technician role, Joe joined as a Corporate Tax Accountant in 2020. He spends most of his time preparing Corporation Tax returns and R&D tax relief claims, as well as assisting James in other specialist areas.

Joe passed the certification programme of the R&D Community on R&D Tax Relief which is fast becoming the defining mark of a technically strong and highly ethical R&D tax adviser in the UK. His promotion to Assistant Corporate Tax Manager followed in July 2026.

Outside of work Joe enjoys football and admits to being a Chelsea fan.

“

When our initial accountants could not deliver the independent assessment work on the grant claims quickly enough for our requirements, we approached Randall & Payne and have received regular and timely support for our grant audits ever since. We have benefited from significant R&D support and efficient accounting services from Randall & Payne, who have been supportive, responsive and proactive as the business and technology has flourished.
