King’s Business School is a leading, highly-ranked business school with global reach situated in the heart of London. We undertake ground-breaking research to improve the way people do business and we engage with organisations around the world to create real value for society. There are presently 140 academic staff across the School, with a full range of undergraduate, masters and PhD programmes and a growing focus on executive education. We have an exciting opening for an outstanding candidate to join the Marketing Subject Group at Professorial level.
The Marketing Group includes leading scholars in the fields of Digital, International and increasingly Responsible Marketing who publish in top-tier journals across these fields, and the successful candidate will have a similarly strong commitment to research of the very highest quality, as well as evidence of excellent teaching in the area of marketing and customer-led innovation. You should hold a PhD in a relevant field, have a substantial, high-quality track record of publications in leading refereed journals and significant experience in securing research income. We are looking for candidates with a background in quantitative methods and/or experimental designs. You should be keen to contribute to the research leadership of the group, and to work with other group members to develop and innovate in our programme offerings. In addition, you should have considerable experience of working with practitioners and policymakers to achieve impact from research.
The Marketing group at King’s Business School offers a friendly and collegial working environment that encourages teamwork and innovation, and supports individual faculty members in achieving their personal work goals.
We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as they are currently under-represented within the faculty at this level.
