To become a licensed CPA in Oregon, you must pass the Uniform CPA Examination and meet the education and experience requirements set by the Oregon Board of Accountancy. Oregon requires a bachelor's degree with a specified number of accounting and business credit hours.

Which companies hire accountants in Oregon?

NW and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Oregon's mix of Fortune 500 headquarters, large health systems, and public-sector employers means accounting openings appear across a wide range of industries and organization sizes.

Which Oregon cities have the most accountant jobs?

Portland, Medford, and Roseburg have the most accountant openings in Oregon. Portland leads by a wide margin because it is home to major corporate headquarters, large regional healthcare systems, and a dense cluster of professional services firms, while Salem draws demand from state government agencies and Eugene from the University of Oregon and surrounding manufacturing operations.

Tax preparation, financial analysis, and management reporting roles tend to be the most remote-friendly, while cost accounting and audit roles tied to physical operations more often require an on-site presence.

The most realistic entry path is a staff accountant or accounting assistant role, which Oregon employers routinely fill with recent graduates. Large Oregon health systems like OHSU and PeaceHealth, as well as state agencies in Salem, run structured new-graduate hiring cycles that pair entry-level accountants with senior mentors. Coming in from accounts payable, payroll, or bookkeeping positions is a common lateral move that provides the foundational experience hiring managers look for. Actively pursuing CPA candidacy through the Oregon Board of Accountancy gives candidates a measurable edge over others at the same experience level.
