Salary: $35 - $40 per hour

By joining One Village Partners, this role contributes to a mission-driven organization whose work directly supports communities in Sierra Leone through sustainable, locally led development.
This is a remote, part-time role averaging 15–20 hours per month, with additional hours during year-end close, audit, and annual filing periods.
