The role also includes contributing to emerging research themes and developing activity linked to AI applications in management practice.

You will contribute to module and programme design, supervise postgraduate researchers and support the development of a strong research environment. The role also involves contributing to School‑level initiatives, working with colleagues and engaging with external partners to enhance visibility, collaboration and academic impact. About you You will hold a PhD in a relevant management discipline and have a strong record of high‑quality publications suitable for REF submission, including work that examines the role or impact of AI in management contexts.
