The location of the position is in Vaasa ( https://www.vaasa.fi/en)

Finland, as a country, is ranked as the best-governed country in the world ( http://www.prosperity.com/rankings), as well as among the top 5 happiest countries ( http://worldhappiness.report/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/03/HR17.pdf) - due to, inter alia, high level of equality and safety; free, high-quality education at both primary, secondary, and university levels; affordable healthcare and childcare; and competitiveness and innovativeness of the business sector.

As an Assistant Professor you will conduct scholarly research, teach and contribute to programme development, supervise students, engage in international collaboration and research projects, and carry out some administrative tasks. As a tenure-track position, the employment is for a fixed term of 5 years at the beginning. After the 5-year period, you will have the opportunity to obtain tenure or a permanent position as an associate professor (and later in a position as full professor) upon fulfilling the university's criteria for career advancement in terms of high-quality research and publications, teaching, and service. More information about Hanken's tenure track can be found at our webpage: https://www.hanken.fi/en/about-hanken/working-hanken/job-opportunities/tenure-track

More specifically, as Assistant Professor you will be responsible for:

- Contributing to the research efforts and the development of new research capabilities and projects of the relevant units (department, subject, and research institute),
- Contributing to the competence development of students by providing research-based teaching and supervision at BSc, MSc, and PhD levels in Management and Organization

During semesters, you are expected to spend a minimum average of three days per week at the Department in Vaasa in order to actively contribute to the research and teaching environment. Teaching tasks are allocated based on the curriculum needs of the subject.

The following qualifications are considered as further merits when evaluating applicants:
