The Position

Applications are invited by Redeemer University for a tenure-track position in Business to begin July 2023. Candidates must be aligned with and passionate about Redeemer’s Christian mission of integrating faith in teaching and research. Candidates should possess expertise in a range of Business disciplines, especially Marketing. Business is one of the largest academic programs at Redeemer and has had large incoming classes in recent years. Our graduates have the benefits of a liberal arts and sciences core, a broad foundation in business, and then specialize in Accounting, Marketing, Management, or Not-for-Profit Management.

Responsibilities

This position carries a teaching load of 6 to 7 courses per year (65% of the position’s responsibilities), with a focus on Management and Marketing. Expertise in other areas of Business, such as Operations Management, International Business, Not-for-Profit Management or Social Enterprise is an asset. In addition, 25% of the position is dedicated to academic research, professional writing (e.g., writing Ivey cases) and/or professional consulting; and 10% of time is devoted to service to the School of Business, University, and wider community. Flexibility exists to vary this breakdown of responsibilities and could include remaining active in industry instead of doing research. Due to two projected retirements within the School of Business over the next few years, we are looking for someone with leadership qualities and administrative gifts who welcomes a challenge.

Preferred Skills and Attributes

• The preferred candidate would possess a Ph.D. or D.B.A. along with professional and teaching experience.
• Candidates with an M.B.A. plus significant industry experience, professional certifications, and teaching experience will also be considered.
• As a liberal arts and sciences undergraduate university rooted in the Reformed tradition of Christianity, we seek candidates who are committed to teaching and pursuing scholarship within this framework.

Other Requirements

• Understanding of and commitment to Redeemer University (mission, values, and Reformed Christian identity) and ability to articulate its mission effectively and persuasively
• Participation in communal activities that supports and encourage a university campus environment where the holistic development of all persons embodies Christian principles that advance the mission and Christian character of Redeemer University
