Candidates must provide evidence of research excellence as demonstrated by a record of high-impact contributions and publications in top-ranked and field-relevant journals, or forthcoming publications and other work in progress meeting high international standards. Other evidence of research excellence will include a strong research statement, presentations at significant conferences, awards and accolades, as well as strong endorsements from referees of high standing.

We seek candidates with research interest in gender-based analysis, diversity and inclusion, and strategic HR. The candidate will be responsible for developing and teaching undergraduate, graduate and executive courses on gender-based analysis based on the GATE Gender Analytics framework.
