What does HR do?
The human resources (HR) office establishes policies and procedures to ensure consistent, transparent, and repeatable practices that are clearly defined and uniformly applied across all divisions of the college.
Our mission is to support the college's strategic goals by fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable work environment where every employee can thrive. We are dedicated to providing exceptional human resources services to attract, develop, and retain top talent while cultivating a people-first culture that empowers individuals to excel in their work. Through collaboration, innovation, and integrity, we aim to empower employees, enhance organizational effectiveness, and promote a culture of excellence, engagement, and mutual respect.
At Reed, every job matters. Our diverse community of staff and faculty collaborates daily to support the college.
Reed College provides a generous and comprehensive benefits package for eligible faculty and staff.
