About the position

NHH in Bergen, Norway, invites applications to a full-time, four-year assistant professor position at the Department of Strategy and Management. The position is linked to the marketing faculty group at the Department, which conducts research and teaching within areas such as consumer behavior, marketing analytics and marketing management in both consumer and business markets.

You will be part of a strong and supportive team of researchers dedicated to producing research with an international outreach in high-ranked publication outlets. The position involves teaching on average one course per year and possibly some graduate supervision.
