Tax Manager – Nonprofit Full Time

Description:

  • The work location for this role is flexible. We are open to candidates who are in the United States and interested in a fully remote arrangement, although preference will be given to local candidates or candidates on the West Coast.
  • Candidates interested in relocating to the Portland area may be eligible for moving assistance. Unfortunately, we are not able to sponsor work visas or hire internationally.
  • We are looking for a seasoned tax manager to join our non-profit practice. Our nonprofit practice is robust, but not enough to keep someone busy full-time.
  • In this role you will spend 50% of your time focused on nonprofit clients, while spending the other half working with our small business clients and their individual owners.
  • As the practice continues to grow, the amount of time focused on tax exempt clients will increase correspondingly.
  • If you are passionate about working with non-profits, and excited to be part of a growing team, we want to hear from you!
  • Work whenever and wherever you want.
  • We don’t just accommodate remote work, we invite it, support it, and celebrate it.
  • Our tax and audit teams may be spread across the country, but they work together seamlessly and successfully.
  • We trust you to get your work done, whether you’re in person, hybrid, or fully remote.
  • A culture where flexibility and balance add up to success.
  • Our leadership team knows that public accounting is a demanding profession, which is the very reason for our ‘people-first’ culture. What works best for you works best for us.
  • Perkins empowers its staff with reasonable expectations around working hours: Full-time managers have a goal of 1375 charge hours (2300 total hours), generally without the expectation that you’ll work weekends—unless that’s your thing.
  • We’re working hard to get busy season hours down to an average of 50 hours/week.
  • Time off to recharge.
  • Empowering our staff with ample time off is central to how we operate and an important component to giving you the time you need to recharge.
  • In addition to 5 weeks of PTO, enjoy 14.5 paid holidays and paid leave options, including parental leave.
  • A smart move for your career.
  • Join our team, and you’ll work with a damn good group of seasoned accounting professionals who thrive on a culture of respect, support, and being refreshingly easygoing, without sacrificing crucial career development and experience.
  • We’ll give you the tools and resources to do your best work and mentorship programs that go above and beyond standard training, including self-selected development courses and career coaches.
  • Our open-door policy gives you easy access to leadership, and our “choose your own adventure” approach to career development allows you to grow your career the way you want.
  • We invite you to focus on your passions, promote you when you’re ready, and celebrate each career milestone you experience with us.
