About the Role

The School of Business and Management (SBM) seeks to recruit several outstanding researchers and teachers to a Lectureship or Senior Lectureship in Marketing (Teaching & Research). This post offers an opportunity to make a major contribution to the development of marketing research and teaching in a rapidly growing and distinctive business and management school.

About You

Applicants should be able to demonstrate the capacity to research and publish at an internationally excellent level. For the senior lectureship, the successful applicant will already be an established academic and be expected to have a strong publication record with demonstrated potential to publish at the world-leading level. Applicants should have a completed doctorate or will have submitted their thesis and be awaiting examination. The School is strongly committed to the development of all its staff and we will ensure that the successful candidate has the opportunity to develop their teaching, research and administrative skills.

The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the marketing teaching on our MSc and undergraduate programmes. We will consider applications from any field of marketing but are particularly interested in the areas of services marketing, strategic marketing, business-to-business marketing, sales management, marketing analytics, digital/e-marketing, new media and communication, consumer behaviour and marketing psychology, and marketing ethics and sustainability. Applicants will be expected to show how their research interests complement those within the School and how they can contribute to the development of marketing programmes within the department of marketing.

About the School of Business and Management, and the Department of Marketing

The School of Business and Management is one of the eight schools in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. The School has been undergoing a period of rapid growth, doubling our number of academic staff over the last five years. We presently have 90 academic staff. We have over 1,600 undergraduate business studies students plus approximately 800 students taking business in combination with other degree subjects within QMUL. At the post-graduate level we have approximately 800 MSc students and a well-established doctoral programme of around 80 doctoral students.

SBM’s core purpose is to promote social justice, sustainability and good governance in the management of private, public and voluntary organisations through our research and education. We are a distinctive School that takes a humanities and social science-led approach to our scholarship, and are now the largest school within QMUL’s Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, with its traditional strengths as a site of critical thinking in the humanities, law, history, geography and politics.

The Department of Marketing at the School of Business and Management is research-led, and our academics publish in journals such as Journal of Marketing, Journal of Service Research, Journal of Consumer Research, Journal of Consumer Psychology, Industrial Marketing Management, Journal of Product Innovation Management, Journal of International Marketing, or Long Range Planning. We focus on excellence in teaching and have our own BSc in Marketing and Management (around 75 students yearly), as well as an MSc in Marketing (around 200 students yearly).

About Queen Mary

At Queen Mary University of London, we believe that a diversity of ideas helps us achieve the previously unthinkable.

Throughout our history, we’ve fostered social justice and improved lives through academic excellence. And we continue to live and breathe this spirit today, not because it’s simply ‘the right thing to do’ but for what it helps us achieve and the intellectual brilliance it delivers.

We continue to embrace diversity of thought and opinion in everything we do, in the belief that when views collide, disciplines interact, and perspectives intersect, truly original thought takes form.

Benefits

We offer competitive salaries, access to a generous pension scheme, 30 days’ leave per annum (pro-rata for part-time/fixed-term), a season ticket loan scheme and access to a comprehensive range of personal and professional development opportunities. In addition, we offer a range of work life balance and family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and campus facilities including an on-site nursery at the Mile End campus.

The post is based at the Mile End Campus in London. It is a full time, permanent appointment, with an expected start date of 1st September 2021 (or earlier). The starting salary will be Grade 5/6, in the range of £42,433 – £52,833 per annum for those appointed as Lecturer, or in Grade 7, in the range of £55,840 – £62,415 per annum for those appointed as Senior Lecturer, in both cases inclusive of London Allowance.

How to Apply

Your application should include:

  • a focused CV of no more than ten pages, including evidence of your teaching (for example recent evaluations and teaching awards or other recognition),
  • a brief (one page) outline of your research plans for the next three years,
  • a statement as to whether you are applying for a Lectureship or a Senior Lectureship.

As part of the selection process you will be asked to present to members of the Department of Marketing on your research and teaching. Please do not send research papers or evidence of qualifications with your application as these will be requested at a later stage in the process.

Queen Mary’s commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes. Reasonable adjustments will be made at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability. We are open to considering applications from candidates wishing to work flexibly.
