ABOUT THE POSITION

Research will be the main focus of the selected candidate as he/she/they will contribute to the vibrant research community at IESEG through their commitment to research excellence. He/she/they is therefore expected to hold a PhD or be very close to its completion, as well as have a publication record in top-tier refereed journals listed in the Academic Journals Guide (AJG) or a strong potential to conduct high-quality research.

In addition, he/she/they will contribute to the development of the Department’s programs. As such, we are looking for candidates with strong teaching skills who are fluent in English, as most courses are taught in this language.

IÉSEG places tremendous value on diversity and inclusion, and we therefore encourage applications from all backgrounds.
