Pre-announcement
POSITIONS IN STRATEGY
The University of Amsterdam Business School is looking to fill positions at all levels (assistant/associate/full professor) in the field of strategy. These positions are within the International Strategy & Marketing department. Faculty members will be available to informally discuss these positions during the 2013 SMS conference. We are interested in candidates in strategy generally, but especially those with an interest in business in society themes, behavioural strategy, and/or corporate governance broadly defined (internal and external governance, including corporate social responsibility issues and stakeholder management perspectives).
About the University, School, and Department
The University of Amsterdam (UvA) has a history that goes back to 1632. UvA is a broad-based research driven university with an enrollment of over 30.000 students. Rankings by the Times (THES) and QS put UvA in the top 100 universities world-wide.
The University of Amsterdam Business School (ABS) offers undergraduate, graduate, and executive programs in accounting, finance, management, and marketing. Most if the teaching in these programs takes place in small seminar sized groups. The International Strategy & Marketing (ISM) department currently houses 22 faculty members, in addition to a number of PhD students and affiliated faculty.
Over the last six years, the ISM department has grown substantially, and we anticipate further growth in the future. The department's research programme focuses on strategy, marketing, and international business in the broadest sense. A common interest within the department is the role of business in society. The department produces a steady stream of papers in internationally recognized journals, and members of the section have recently published in journals like the Academy of Management Review, Business & Society, California Management Review, Journal of Business Ethics, Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of Management, Journal of Management Studies, and Strategic Management Journal, among others.
What we are looking for
We are looking for candidates who take their teaching seriously and have published, or are about to publish, in top-tier international journals, with concomitant visibility at major conferences, and an active research portfolio in strategy or international business. We are particularly interested in ambitious team players who can help us further build our department and ABS more generally. A PhD in management or a related field is a requirement for all positions. The track record of candidates above the level of assistant professor should be consistent with the rank applied for.
What we offer
The possibility to help shape a growing research driven business school at an internationally recognized university that has the ambition to become a leading international player in the field of management research and education. ABS is located in the heart of Amsterdam, the cultural and financial capital of the Netherlands. Amsterdam offers a cosmopolitan living environment with excellent connections to the rest of the world.
Appointment at the assistant professor level will be on the basis of a tenure track. Salary will be in accordance with Dutch academic salary scales and include a pension scheme. For assistant professors this is between €3,195 & €4,970 per month (+16.3% holiday and end-year payments). For associate professors this is between €4,428 & €5,920 per month (+16.3% holiday and end-year payments), and for full professors between €5,003 & €8,795 per month (+16.3% holiday and end-year payments). A substantial reduction in income tax (equal to 30% of taxable salary) may apply to non-Dutch candidates.
Applications
This is a pre-announcement. Recruitment for these positions will formally be opened in the coming month, and details of the application procedure will then be announced. However, ISM faculty are more than happy to already discuss these position, for instance at the upcoming SMS conference.
Applicants who require further information about these positions may contact the chair of the department, Dr. Jan-Willem Stoelhorst via e-mail: J.W.Stoelhorst@uva.nl.
