The Department of Accounting and Finance is seeking to recruit a full-time, permanent faculty member at the Professor level in the area of Finance. It is looking for an individual with proven record and an exciting research agenda to support our growth in the area of Sustainable Finance. A specialisation in Socially Responsible Finance, or Climate Finance, Credit Risk or Corporate Innovation is desirable, but not essential.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate that their current and potential research is of high quality and internationally recognised in the field of Finance. This can be evidenced by having publications in the top journals included in the FT50 list covering Finance topics. Research grants and engagement activities are also highly appreciated.
The successful candidate will be a dynamic academic who enjoys working in a fast-moving, multidisciplinary environment and who shows enthusiasm for collaborating with colleagues within the department, the School, and across disciplines.
He/she should have experience in teaching up to postgraduate level and be willing and able to teach core and specialist subjects.
