    <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Australian</st1:placename> <st1:placename w:st="on">Graduate</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">School</st1:placetype></st1:place> of Management (AGSM).  AGSM seeks to fill at

    least one mid-level or senior faculty position in Strategic Management and

    one junior level position.  Although we prefer to fill the senior position

    at the Full Professor level we will also consider strong candidates at the

    Associate Professor rank.  Potential senior colleagues should possess a

    proven capacity to publish their research in tier-1 refereed journals, to

    provide leadership for junior faculty and doctoral students in strategy,

    and to teach top-caliber students in a leading business school.  Junior

    scholars are expected to have the potential to develop an effective quality

    research program with a high likelihood and desire to play on a global

    stage.  Junior position applicants are expected to have recently completed

    their PhD or to be in the position to complete that degree by the time they

    take up the position.  Senior candidates must have earned a PhD (or

    equivalent) and have an excellent publication record and the potential to

    move into a leadership position in the School.

     

     

    AGSM, located in Sydney with a program in Hong Kong, is the premier

    business school in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region>, and a leader in management research and

    graduate education throughout Asia and <st1:place w:st="on">Oceania</st1:place>.  We offer a range of

    graduate programs, including full-time MBA, executive MBA, corporate

    programs, and a doctoral program.  Forbes Magazine recently rated us as the

    fifth best non-US business school in the world and our Executive MBA

    program is rated by the Financial Times as 31st in world which includes a

    research ranking of 28th in the world. The AGSM's faculty is consistently

    recognized internationally for its research excellence. Over the last few

    years, we have published consistently in such leading journals as Academy

    of Management Review, Strategic Management Journal, Journal of

    International Business Studies, Journal of Economic Behavior and

    Organization, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Harvard

    Business Review, and <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">California</st1:place></st1:state> Management Review.  Current members of the

    strategy group include: Jeremy Davis (MA Stanford), Timothy Devinney (PhD

    <st1:city w:st="on">Chicago</st1:city>), Geoff Eagleson (PhD <st1:city w:st="on">Sydney</st1:city>), Shayne Gary (PhD <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">London</st1:place></st1:city>), Anna

    Gunnthorsdottir (PhD <st1:state w:st="on">Arizona</st1:state>), Dan Lovallo (PhD <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Berkeley</st1:place></st1:city>), J Peter Murmann

    (PhD <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Columbia</st1:place></st1:city>), Thomas Powell (PhD NYU), Geoff Waring (PhD UCLA), and Phil

    Yetton (PhD CMU).

     

     

    We have no dominant philosophical orientation and would consider candidates

    for any position (junior or senior) with strong training in economics,

    psychology, sociology, strategy and other related disciplines.  Candidates

    with a less direct 'management' orientation with a desire to move into

    management applications of basic disciplinary approaches will also be

    considered.

     

     

    The remuneration package is globally competitive and teaching loads are

    very attractive for supporting research productivity.  Teaching loads

    generally offer the opportunity to spend half the year in undisturbed

    research activities, with the potential of a sabbatical after only three

    years of employment.

     

     

    <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city> is recognized as one of the most livable, beautiful, and vibrant

    cities on the planet.  It plays a major part in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s economy,

    accounting for over 25% of <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s total economic activity. The city is

    Australia's undisputed financial centre, with 65% of <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s finance

    industry located here, including the Reserve Bank, the Australian Stock

    Exchange and the <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city> Futures Exchange. The strong economic mix

    encompasses services, manufacturing and mining – with financial, property

    and retail services together accounting for over 80% of total economic

    output. Financial and business services accounts for 47.1% of the city's

    workforce. Multinationals with Asian-Pacific headquarters here include 3M,

    American Express, AMP, Boral Ltd, BT, Coca-Cola Amatil, Compuserve, HJ

    Heinz, IBM, Microsoft, Mastercard, Price Waterhouse Coopers, TNT Ltd and

    Unilever. Of the nation's top 100 companies, 60% have headquarters in

    <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city>.  <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city> was also recently named by the LA Times as the world's most

    innovative city with respect to culinary arts and those with a penchant for

    wine, opera, sailing and any of a host of other activities need look no

    further than their front door.

     

     

    The positions are open immediately and will remain open until filled.  For
