Description

EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA accredited with its full-time MBA ranked in The Economist top 100, the University of Liverpool Management School is an international management school that benefits from Liverpool¿s standing as a founding member of the Russell Group of the UK¿s leading research-intensive universities and from its location in a city known the world over for its culture and commerce.


Formed in 2002 through the bringing together of a number of well-established departments and research groups in the University of Liverpool, the School provides a world-leading environment for research, and management and leadership education.

The pursuit of research which is internationally recognised for excellence in its originality, significance and rigour is central to the culture of the School, as is delivery of a strong student experience.

Since 2016, with the development of the UoL Strategy 2026 with its focus on research excellence across the University, and the appointment of a new Dean, Professor Julia Balogun, in 2015, ULMS has significantly accelerated its investment in an enhanced research environment supporting a critical mass of faculty capable of delivering against the School¿s world-class research ambition.

ULMS is now fulfilling its vision as a globally connected Management School advancing influential knowledge leadership through our transformative research and teaching to better business and society.


Over the last four years, ULMS has engaged in extensive recruitment of academic and professional services staff, expanding into a state-of-the-art extension, including a trading room.

The School has 230 academic and research staff, supported by 80 professional services colleagues.

Echoing the City of Liverpool¿s reputation for friendliness and an outward looking orientation, ULMS provides a strongly collegial, international and intellectually vibrant interdisciplinary environment, including a thriving doctoral research community of over 140 PhD students.


The Operations and Supply Chain Management Subject Group (OSCM), one of the six ULMS Subject Groups, is seeking to appoint a Professor in Digital Business.

The appointee will provide academic leadership through making an outstanding contribution to research in digital business and digital transformation, mentor academic colleagues, teach on postgraduate and undergraduate programmes, undertake curriculum development, and help shape the development of research and teaching within the Group and across the School.

A track record of publishing in leading journals, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and a strong network of contacts in the international academic community are key requirements of the role.

Presentations and interviews provisionally scheduled for Presentations Thursday 5th October, Interviews Friday 6th October.
