Two Tenure-Track Positions in Marketing and Behavioural Science at the University of British Columbia

The Marketing and Behavioural Science Division of the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia (Vancouver Campus), Canada invites applications for two tenure track faculty positions, with the possibility of an additional opportunity becoming available. One position is open to quantitative researchers, and the other to consumer behaviour researchers. Although preference will be given to applications at the Assistant Professor rank, we will also consider applications at the Associate and Full Professor ranks.

Applicants must have a record of research commensurate with the rank. Senior-level candidates should have accomplished excellence in research in marketing. Entry-level candidates should demonstrate an interest in and potential to conduct high quality research in marketing, and be very close to completing or have completed a Ph.D. in Marketing, Statistics, Economics, Psychology, or a related field. Candidates should demonstrate experience or aptitude in teaching. The successful candidate will be appointed at the rank appropriate to their qualification and experience.

Duties include developing and maintaining an active research program aimed at making a significant contribution to the profession, teaching in the undergraduate, MBA and Ph.D. programs, supervising Ph.D. students, as well as participating in other administrative initiatives of the Marketing and Behavioural Science Division and the Sauder School of Business. Teaching and service requirements are similar to other research-intensive universities.

More information about the Marketing and Behavioural Science Division can be found on its website at:https://www.sauder.ubc.ca/Faculty/Divisions/Marketing_and_Behavioural_Science_Division.

Applications should be submitted via email to marketing@sauder.ubc.ca. Please submit your complete application before 5pm, Pacific Daylight Time on June 30, 2023.

Applications should include:

1. Cover letter that summarizes your research, teaching, service, and/or other relevant information. Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are important components of the UBC Sauder culture. Please include in your cover letter any experiences you wish to share regarding equity, diversity and inclusion and comment on your ability to work with a culturally diverse student body (giving specific examples where possible).
2. Curriculum vitae
3. Research papers (i.e., two recent published research papers or current working papers)
4. Teaching dossier or record of teaching effectiveness, if applicable
5. 3 letters of reference (these may be included as part of the application package, or may be submitted separately by the letter writers, to ensure confidentiality)

Subject to budgetary approval, the positions start July 1, 2024. Information regarding hiring is available on our website at: http://www.sauder.ubc.ca/Faculty/People/Faculty_Openings

Applicants to faculty positions at the Sauder School of Business are asked to complete the following equity survey. The link to the survey is https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_aVtaMWjwsMEcO4l.

Your participation is voluntary and anonymous. The information will not be used to determine eligibility for employment. The answers will be collated to provide data that can assist us in understanding the diversity of our applicant pool and identifying potential barriers to the employment of designated equity group members. This survey takes only a minute to complete. You may self-identify in one or more of the designated equity groups. You may decline to identify in any or all of the questions by choosing “prefer not to disclose.” Thank you in advance for your participation.

Equity and diversity are essential to academic excellence. An open and diverse community fosters the inclusion of voices that have been underrepresented or discouraged. We encourage applications from members of groups that have been marginalized on any grounds enumerated under the B.C. Human Rights Code, including sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, racialization, disability, political belief, religion, marital or family status, age, and/or status as a First Nation, Metis, Inuit, or Indigenous person. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents of Canada will be given priority.
