As a senior lecturer, you will be a part of a dynamic, interdisciplinary and cross-cultural research community providing you ample opportunities to further develop your teaching skills and research interests. The department of Architecture and Civil engineering includes approximately 230 employees and encompasses a broad theoretical knowledge base, including engineering sciences, social sciences and the liberal arts, such as design and artistic research. These knowledge areas open up for interesting and novel collaborations and broader discussions across disciplines. Together, we provide a comprehensive environment for architecture, civil engineering, construction informatics (digitalisation and digital construction) and management of the built environment. We are well equipped to take on common challenges to build a sustainable future for the built environment.

The Construction Management division
At the Construction Management division (CM), we engage in both socially-oriented (social sciences) and technological (engineering) research and teaching. We are future-oriented, working to design and develop processes as well as contextually relevant practices (social interactions), facilitated by situated, applicable innovative technology. Hence, our research and teaching encompasses various levels of the built environment: individual actors, projects, organisations, industry and regulatory authorities. Important current and future challenges for ACE and CM are finding viable solutions to improve sustainability - environmental, social and economic - and to enhance digitalisation and digital construction in the industry. Another important challenge is to strengthen interdisciplinary research between fields such as project and production management, informatics, markets, supply-chain and logistics, managerial leadership and decision making, as well as knowledge management and learning.

One of the ways we address these challenges is by focusing on critical socio-technical issues within the construction industry such as how to enhance processes and practices related to design, organization, projects and building site. An important facet of CM is its collaborative dimension: collaboration with the industry and its public and private organizations, and inter-disciplinary collaboration within and beyond the CM division.

Major responsibilities
We want to strengthen and grow the CM group by recruiting a senior lecturer devoted to teaching and learning at bachelor and master levels, who possesses a comprehensive understanding of the Swedish and/or Scandinavian construction industry, both theoretical and practical. You will be teaching, co-ordinating, and in time, also developing courses in our Master program, Design and Construction Project Management. You will also teach at bachelor level, where we provide large courses focused on project and production management, logistics management and project economics.

Furthermore, you will supervise a number of Bachelor and Master theses per year, for example within your current area of research and in potential future areas of interest. You will play an important part in participating in CM activities and initiatives such as division meeting and academic seminars,as well as engaging in potential collaborative research proposals. In due course, you will also be applying for research funding as PI of your own project/s.

The responsibility for delivering courses includes administrative work, preparation, implementation of the course's learning objectives and course evaluation. We strive toward synergy between research and teaching.

The distribution of responsibilities will no doubt change over time in line with your career progression. It is customary that faculty members at Swedish universities are active in seeking and securing research funding. Currently, however, we need to strengthen our teaching and course-development capacity in our Master program and at bachelor level, which means that initially at least 60% of your time will be spent on teaching.

Qualifications
• A Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, Social science or related topics.
• A PhD within the field of Construction Management. Specialisation in one or more of the following is meritorious: Construction-project management, Construction production and operations, Project governance, Cost control. A socio-technical and/or design management perspective would be advantageous.
• Well documented teaching skills and experience of teaching and course/program development at undergraduate levels (bachelor and master levels), documented in a pedagogical portfolio.
• Well documented ability to supervise bachelor and master students.
• Well documented capacity and potential for academic inquiry and research.
• A potential to attract and in due course lead research projects with national and international partners. This can be shown through the ability to write research proposals, secure research grants and project leaderships.
- Oral and written proficiency in English and in one of the Scandinavian languages are required.

Teaching faculty at Chalmers are required to have education in higher education pedagogics in accordance with SUHF's current recommendations. External applicants who currently do not meet the SUHF requirements may be employed for a permanent position under the condition that the required education is completed within the first two years of employment.
