The successful candidate will join the HRM section of Cardiff Business School, a group of about forty academics in the fields of International Management, HRM, Industrial Relations, Organisational Studies and Public Management. Many of the section's academics are acknowledged world-leaders in their fields of study and collectively the group has a very strong research ethos and record.

In September 2013 the HRM Section is launching a new MSc in International Management and hopes to develop a linked programme in International Human Resource Management in 2014. It is intended that the successful candidate will contribute actively to these new programmes of study. He or she may also contribute to the Section’s established MSc in Human Resource Management and to general management programmes at undergraduate and postgraduate level.

It is essential that the person appointed to this position has a strong return for the Research Excellence Framework and is in a position to take up the role prior to October 31st 2013.

This is a full-time position, working 35 hours per week, on an ongoing contract.
