We seek candidates whose research and teaching interests complement and enhance the area’s existing strengths in organizational behaviour and human resource management. Specifically, we seek candidates who study the psychological processes underlying creativity, ethical decision‑making, and environmental and social sustainability. Research Excellence Evidence of research excellence is shown primarily by an outstanding and competitive program of research as detailed in a research statement, publications in internationally recognized top‑tier academic journals in organizational behaviour, human resource management, or cognate disciplines, and strong letters of reference from referees of high standing. The successful candidate will have an established strong international reputation and will be expected to sustain and lead independent, innovative research leading to publications in internationally recognized top‑ranked academic journals. We seek individuals who have published and have works in progress in top‑ranked management and field‑specific academic journals (e.g., Academy of Management Journal, Administrative Science Quarterly, Organization Science, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Nature). Further evidence of research excellence includes presentations at key management and field‑specific conferences, awards and accolades, research presentations at top universities, an active research pipeline, and noteworthy activities in the fields of organizational behaviour and human resource management.

Candidates must have experience teaching executives, graduate students, and undergraduate students in management or business schools. Evidence of excellence in teaching will be demonstrated by strong letters of reference, teaching accomplishments, the teaching dossier, and for short‑listed candidates, a strong performance during the on‑campus seminar presentation. The teaching dossier includes a teaching statement, sample course materials, teaching evaluations, and other evidence of strong performance in teaching‑related activities.
