Associate Professorship of Management and Public Policy

The Blavatnik School of Government and Green Templeton College are recruiting
an Associate Professor of Management and Public Policy to join the School in
the academic year from September 2025 (or soon thereafter).





As a global school committed to this vision of a world better led, better
served and better governed, the Blavatnik School teaches current and future
leaders to tackle this century’s most pressing public policy challenges. We
are proud of our academic excellence and independent and academically rigorous
research, together with our ability to bring people together across
disciplines and sectors to share knowledge, exchange ideas and create
solutions.





The School is one of the world’s leading academic institutions for research,
teaching, and public leadership development in the area of government. The
Associate Professorship will bring to the School an academic with an emerging
global reputation for excellence in an area or areas of management and public
policy. They will have a doctorate in management (or closely related field)
and be equipped to teach management in an inspiring way to current and future
public leaders, as well as to engage in this area with policy experts.
Applications are invited in all areas of management and public policy.





The appointment will be made in association with Green Templeton College. You
will have the opportunity to contribute to the academic life of an engaging
and interdisciplinary community which unites students and Faculty at all
levels and across a wide range of intellectual approaches.





You should have a doctorate in management, public management, or a closely
related field, track record of internationally excellent articles in highly-
ranked, peer reviewed academic journals, commensurate with the candidate’s
career stage; an outstanding programme of applied research in management and
public policy, or a closely related field; an established record of public
engagement with governments and international organisations on public policy;
the ability and willingness to teach, supervise, and assess high-achieving
graduate students with real world professional experience who come from
diverse cultural backgrounds; the ability and willingness to develop and teach
upon short courses for senior practitioners from diverse cultural backgrounds;
a commitment to outstanding and innovative teaching; the ability to build the
profile of the School on management and public policy issues.





The general expectation is that members of faculty will devote up to 60% of
their time to research, publication and policy engagement, and 40% to
teaching, assessment, and administration. The amount of teaching must not
normally exceed an average of 288[1] teaching units per year without approval
by the Divisional Board. All Associate Professors are expected to engage in
public policy and to contribute to institutional advancement – both of which
are part of the Initial Period of Office (IPO) criteria along with teaching
and research.





Further information (including full details about how to apply) is included in
the further particulars.

professor may be awarded at the time of appointment alongside a salary more
