University of British Columbia - Faculty of Management (up to 6
Associate Professor positions)

The newly created Faculty of Management plans to hire a founding group
of six research-oriented Associate Professors with multi-disciplinary
interests. Funding permitting, one founding member from each area of
specialization will be hired. Founding faculty members will take a
leadership role in the subsequent recruiting and mentoring of junior
faculty members as the Faculty grows. Another key role will be to
participate in the development of an integrated, collaborative
undergraduate program. Over the next four years, we will also develop
interdisciplinary graduate and executive programs in areas such as
technology management, arts management and health administration and
participate fully in the interdisciplinary PhD program.

The Faculty of Management has adopted an initial set of integrative
research themes:

1) Sustainable Indigenous Development;
2) Corporate Social Responsibility and Ethical Leadership; and
3) Sustainable Enterprise Development focusing on SME's

Candidates must have a strong track record of achievement in research
and teaching and demonstrated organizational experience, either inside
or outside the university. Mid and senior-level candidates are invited
to apply in the following disciplines and to indicate how their research
might contribute to our integrative research themes.

You can make a difference at UBC Okanagan with contributions in
research, teaching and institution building. For further detailed

based business are invited to apply. Disciplinary focus is less
important than a broad set of interests and could include finance,
innovation, leadership, business planning, and stakeholder management
domains.
