Base pay range

$120,000.00/yr - $140,000.00/yr

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. 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.

At Perkins, our leadership team know that public accounting is a demanding profession, and is committed to a people-first culture that respects your time, values your contributions, and supports a sustainable career.

We believe that when you're set up for success, we all win. That's why our expectations are both clear and reasonable: full-time managers have a target of 1,375 charge hours (2,300 total hours annually), giving you the structure you need without the burnout.

During peak season, you can expect to log around 50 charge hours per week, with some weeks trending higher as deadlines approach—but you won't be doing it alone. We collaborate, support each other, and always finish strong together.

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.
