The Center for Retailing at Stockholm School of Economics invites applications for a fully funded, two-year post doc position in marketing, with a focus on retailing.

Job description

We are looking for a candidate with a PhD in Marketing to work in an ongoing project in collaboration with one of the partner companies of the Center for Retailing. The project focuses on the process of digital transformation of retail with particular attention to the (re)shaping of market relations, work-practices, and offers. The project is conducted in close collaboration with the partner company using participant observation, in-depth interviews and other qualitative methods. The candidate should thus have documented experience from conducting research using those methods.

In addition to research, the position includes 20% teaching in the Retail Management Program run at the Center for Retailing. The candidate is expected to take an active role in tutoring students and integrating companies in teaching.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to engage in an innovative and exciting research project that offers high potential to get published in international peer reviewed journals. The candidate will also have the opportunity engage in industry collaborations in both teaching and research, tapping into the wide network of partner organizations of the Center for Retailing and the Stockholm School of Economics

A tentative starting date for the successful applicant is January 2021, but the School is open to discussing other dates as well.

Qualifications

The successful candidate should:

- Have completed or be close to completing a Ph.D. in marketing. The applicant is expected to possess strong conceptual and analytical (qualitative methods) skills and have a commitment to research excellence.
- Have documented experience from conducting theoretical and/or empirical research in the area of market and marketing dynamics.
- Have documented command over relevant literatures for the project (market digitalization, platform markets, market shaping, constructivist market studies, geographies of marketization, service ecosystems).
- Documented ability to conduct process-oriented research using one or more of the following methods:
-Ethnographic methods (e.g. participant observation, shadowing, and other techniques)
-Longitudinal case studies (e.g. combining document analysis, qualitative interviews, and observations)
- Be completely fluent in English. Knowledge of Swedish is a merit and would be advantageous for the project.
- Ability to manage time, resources, data, and details of multiple tasks are also required.
- Experience of teaching marketing at bachelor and/or master levels is a merit.
