Human Resources Associate / Manager (Part-Time)

REDUCED is seeking a structured, proactive, and self-driven HR professional to join our team, taking ownership of various administrative and coordinating tasks for 15–20 hours per week.

This role is ideal for either an advanced Master’s student with solid HR experience or a seasoned professional seeking a high-impact, part-time position. You will drive the daily HR operations, working closely with the Head of Finance & Business Admin to manage the full HR lifecycle—from recruitment and onboarding to policy development and culture initiatives.

We expect a high willingness for ownership of our HR tasks. You will report directly to the Head of Finance & Business Admin and work closely with multiple departments. We are especially looking for someone who can grow with us and potentially transition into a full-time role within 1–2 years.
