Job Description

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our International Tax Practice as a direct-admit Shareholder. At Perkins & Co, we’re passionate about helping our people thrive in careers that align with their ambitions. We hire great people and give them a great place to work.

What’s our secret to long-term success? A vibrant, positive culture, deep community involvement, and a relentless focus on continuous improvement. We work hard, support one another, and make sure to have fun along the way.

Being a Shareholder at Perkins & Co means more than just technical expertise—it’s about leadership, collaboration, strategic thinking, and delivering outstanding client service. We’re not a one-size-fits-all firm, and we don’t expect our shareholders to be either. We value diverse talents and perspectives to better serve our broad client base—and we’re looking for someone who brings all of that and more.

What’s in it for you?

As a direct-admit Shareholder, you’ll step into an established book of business at a firm consistently ranked among Oregon’s Most Admired Companies. This is a prime opportunity for someone ready to level up in their career—without the pressure of building a book from scratch. Your focus will be on continuing the great work already in motion : nurturing client relationships, applying your technical expertise, and bringing your own business development ambitions to the table. Plus, you’ll work alongside some of the most dedicated professionals in the industry. It’s a win-win.

While your focus will be on international matters you won’t be working in a silo. Perkins has a highly collaborative culture, and this role is no different. You can expect to work cross departmentally to support international clients, and advise on a wide range of international tax items, occasionally working with tax practitioners in other countries. This role supports a large Japanese-speaking client base, so candidates with fluency in Japanese language and business culture will be prioritized.

What you'll be doing

  • Provide consultative and compliance expertise in U.S. international tax, including :
  • Permanent Establishment, ECI, Branch Profits Tax, FDII
  • Subpart F, GILTI, PFICs, Foreign Trust throwback rules
  • Check-the-box elections
  • Foreign tax credit planning
  • U.S. withholding tax (IRC §§1441–1446)
  • U.S. estate, gift, and expatriation tax
  • Develop and maintain strong relationships with current and potential clients;
  • Effectively manage overall client relationships to ensure client satisfaction
  • Drive strategy development and implementation, profitability, and growth for the international practice
  • Assist and advise other tax shareholders with various items of international tax relevance.
  • Review international entity returns prepared by the team and provide constructive feedback to develop their personal and professional skills
  • Stay current with evolving tax laws and explain relevant new regulations and rulings to clients and internal staff
  • Adhere to the highest degree of professional standards and strict client confidentiality
  • Foster teamwork and innovation to enhance the client service experience
  • Develop and motivate engagement teams by providing mentorship, leadership, coaching and career guidance; Ensure continuous improvement and development of tax professionals

Requirements

  • Active CPA license
  • 10+ years of progressive public accounting experience (preferably in a large local, regional, or Big 4 firm)
  • Deep expertise in U.S. international tax rules and reporting (e.g., Subpart F, GILTI, FTC, PFICs, FDII, BEAT, FIRPTA)
  • Proficiency with international tax forms (1120F, 5471, 5472, 1118, 8865, 8858, 8621, 8992, 8993, 8833), 3520, 8854
  • Fluency in Japanese (verbal and written) is strongly desired (candidates with fluency will be prioritized)
  • Experience in a paperless, cloud-based environment
  • Strong analytical, technical, and communication skills
  • Proven ability to give and receive constructive feedback
  • High integrity, attention to detail, and collaborative mindset
  • Benefits

    Compensation and benefits

    Of course we offer a competitive salary and benefits which we are excited to discuss with qualified candidates during the interview process.

    We also offer a 401(k) profit sharing plan with immediate vesting of employer contributions; 14.5 paid holidays, 6 weeks of paid time-off (PTO), and Perkins Paid Leave Plan, which provides up to 12 weeks of paid leave for bonding with a new child, medical care for yourself or a family member, and other needs.

    A company that makes you feels good

    We don’t like to brag, but we have some significant accolades under our belt—all thanks to our passionate teams. At Perkins, we feel good about our work and love that our community feels good about it, too.
