Faculty positions (all ranks) in Finance at NEOMA Business School

About the positions
Thanks to our strong and continuous growth, at NEOMA Business School we are seeking to hire multiple full-time, permanent faculty in all areas of Finance, including – but not limited to – Big Data, Machine Learning, Decentralized Finance, Entrepreneurial Finance, Fintech, Asset Pricing, Corporate Finance, Artificial Intelligence, Climate Finance, and Business and Financial Cycles.

This is a fantastic time for a researcher to join our school. We have launched new, multidisciplinary research areas (the Areas of Excellence - see https://neoma-bs.com/faculty-and-research/research/centres-of-expertise-chairs-institutes) that are catalyzing our research about timely, impactful topics for business and society, such as the future of work, artificial intelligence (AI) and data science, the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (including diversity and sustainability, among others), and complexity. These Areas provide resources – in terms of people (i.e., RAs, postdocs, and data scientists) and financial support – to our faculty working around such topics. Thus, while we will consider all high-quality candidates, those with expertise within these domains will receive special consideration.

In addition to the resources available through the Areas, we provide a full range of research support, including – among others – an individual annual budget for conferences and other research expenses, two experimental behavioral labs, an internal copyeditor, and a unit dedicated to grants development.

The compensation package is consistent with international standards (with the addition of generous bonuses linked to one’s publications). We also provide support for administrative procedures related to settlement in France and assistance in finding accommodation, family integration (school registration for children, help with job search for your partner), French training (for you and your partner), and relocation expenses.

About the candidates
We are looking for dynamic, high-potential candidates who:
• Hold a PhD from an internationally recognized institution (or are close to completing it)
• Have a publication record (or strong publication potential) in top international peer-reviewed journals
• Are passionate about impactful research and are committed to excellence in its pursuit
• Are eager to diffuse their knowledge in the classroom, empowering our students and executives with new insights to help them navigate a complex and uncertain world
• Can leverage innovative pedagogy to deliver high-quality classes in English (while it is a plus, knowledge of French is not required)
• Are willing to disseminate research and expertise to our external stakeholders, both locally and globally
• Have a proactive and collegial attitude toward their colleagues, their department, and the school
• Look forward to actively participate in developing and implementing the school’s strategy

If you are looking to push the frontiers of knowledge in your discipline and are committed to sharing this knowledge with our stakeholders, you will find NEOMA Business School an ideal place to advance your career. We make it our goal to create the best possible environment for you to excel in your research and, more globally, in your academic career.
