University of Auckland, New Zealand – Department of Information Systems and Operations Management (ISOM)

Join the prestigious University of Auckland Business School (UABS) as a Professor in Operations and Supply Chain Management. UABS is New Zealand's largest business school, triple-crown accredited, and renowned for its research and teaching excellence.

The appointee will be part of the Department of Information Systems and Operations Management (ISOM) and will have the opportunity to make a significant impact in the field of Operations and Supply Chain Management, contributing to the growth and success of the department and the Faculty of Business & Economics.

The Department is home to the Centre for Supply Chain Management (CSCM), a multi-disciplinary centre, developing and disseminating world-class knowledge and practices in supply chain management applicable to Australasian economies by fostering cooperation, collaboration and communication among academic researchers, educators and industry practitioners.

The appointee will demonstrate excellence and leadership in research and a commitment to high-quality research-informed teaching. As professor you will teach at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, supervise research students, and provide academic leadership to the research and teaching programmes. This commitment will be extended to supporting and mentoring highly motivated academic staff who demonstrate excellence in research and teaching.

There will be an opportunity for those interested in departmental leadership to become Deputy Head of Department or disciplinary area lead. If desired, further leadership opportunities within the Department, Business School and the wider University can also be explored.

The preferred candidate will demonstrate:

  • A strong record of scholarship, research contribution, publication and collaboration and a continuing programme of individual and team-based research;
  • A strong commitment to high-quality teaching and graduate supervision;
  • Enthusiasm and energy for building opportunities and capturing synergies from disciplinary and interdisciplinary research and teaching programmes.

The Department of Information Systems and Operations Management, one of seven departments within UABS, is ranked highly amongst other ISOM departments in New Zealand and is one of the leading departments in the Asia-Pacific region. It has a well-developed research culture, with researchers publishing in the best journals in their field. The teaching program is strong and innovative and the quality of teaching, as judged by student evaluations and by peer review, is very high.

This is an exciting opportunity to join ISOM within New Zealand's leading research-led Business School. The Department offers a full suite of undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes, including a particularly vibrant PhD programme. It has more than 800 full-time equivalent students enrolled and thirty-one full-time equivalent academic staff, including five professors and two associate professors. Current research spans the area of information systems, information management, business analytics, and operations and supply chain management. Opportunities for collaboration across the Faculty provide even greater prospects for research diversity, and the Department runs a lively monthly seminar series to further enhance this.
