We are looking for candidates with a Ph.D. in Business Administration (primarily in Marketing or Strategy, but other BA subdisciplines may be considered) or in another relevant discipline. The doctoral degree must be completed before taking up the position. For this position, we are specifically looking for candidates with an interest in, and documented experience from, research on CSR and/or sustainability. This includes, but is not limited to, research on:
- transformation of markets and industries towards increased sustainability, including the regulatory environment and business initiatives,
- development and introduction of sustainable business models,
- implementation of sustainability and CSR initiatives in firms and organizations, along with their value chains,
- the role of internal and external stakeholders in such processes,
- responsible and sustainable business practices and behavior,
- the development of sustainable consumption and production ecosystems.
The ideal candidate has a promising research record as evidenced by publications in or potential to publish in relevant top journals. We expect the candidate to actively participate in one or more of the department's ongoing research streams (see below).
The successful candidate will be part of the core faculty teaching courses on CSR, Sustainable Business and Sustainability Management (in English) on all educational levels (BSc, MSc, MBA and PhD). Teaching may also include other courses in Marketing and/or Strategic Management. Research and teaching are considered equally important. The standard teaching load for tenure track faculty at SSE is four courses per year (40%) with the possibility of a 50% reduction through external research grants. The position offers ample opportunities to cooperate with SSE's wide network of partner organizations and companies both in teaching and research.
In sum, we are looking for a colleague with a passion for both research and teaching, who is doing outstanding research, has a track record of high-quality teaching, and comes with excellent recommendations. Beyond this, we are looking for someone prepared to contribute to our research environment, our education programs, and other areas in the life of a thriving academic institution.
Terms
The expected start date is August 1, 2022, but alternative dates can be discussed. Salaries are set individually based on qualifications and experience. Our tenure track system is 3+3 years, conditional on successful mid-term review after 3 years. Tenure evaluation takes place after a maximum of 6 years and successful evaluation leads to conversion of the tenure-track position into a tenured Associate Professor position.
Qualifications
The position requires a PhD in Business Administration (primarily Marketing and Strategy) or some other relevant discipline from a leading university or business school. Candidates must have completed their PhD prior to taking up the position. Candidates must demonstrate a strong research interest in CSR/sustainability and a commitment to high quality research and teaching in relevant areas. Preference will be given to candidates who have already published in top journals, have a track record of international peer-reviewed publications, and/or a strong pipeline of submitted papers. Candidates should be active in the international research community in their field. Reviewing experience from relevant journals is a merit.
The candidates should have documented experience from teaching relevant courses and must demonstrate teaching effectiveness as indicated by teaching evaluations, letters of recommendations and/or peer reviews. Experience from teaching at both bachelor and master level, designing courses, coaching student projects, and teaching in executive education are considered merits. Ability to teach in adjacent areas within Marketing and Strategy will also be valued.
Engagement in outreach activities (business and society) is a merit. Finally, candidates should demonstrate an ability and willingness to undertake administrative tasks and contribute to the intellectual life of the department and the school at large.
