  • a strong research portfolio including publications in top-tier academic journals (as referenced in the ABDC list) in Marketing;
  • an established and successful research portfolio that is active, innovative and impactful, resulting in achievements such as peer reviewed publications, working papers, book chapters, presentations at significant conferences, awards and accolades. Preference will be given to candidates who also possess noteworthy activities relating to their research (e.g. industry partnerships/experience) that help share scholarly outcomes to a broader audience, as well as a commitment to collegial service;
