The appointment is for two years, with the second-year contingent upon satisfactory performance during the first year. We will offer a competitive salary and full access to the LBS environment. The postdoctoral fellow is expected to contribute and benefit from the resources of the OB community, which includes interactions with faculty and PhD students, mentoring opportunities, organisation of reading groups, and training sessions.
Inclusion and diversity have always been a cornerstone of London Business School’s values and we particularly welcome female applicants and those from an ethnic minority, as they are currently under-represented within our faculty.
