As an impressive early career academic, you'll recognise that securing a Presidential Academic Fellowship at the University of Manchester will empower you to unlock your potential. In addition to a good salary for the duration of your Fellowship, you'll receive several thousand pounds per annum for research support costs and access to key technology platforms.

Based in the People Management and Organisations Division of Alliance Manchester Business School, you'll join a community of internationally renowned researchers in the field of comparative and international business. Your research will complement their existing areas of focus, which currently include global sustainable strategies, capability development of multinational enterprises, institutions and innovation, the comparative institutional analysis of markets, Asian business systems, emerging market multinationals, corporate social responsibility, inclusive global supply chains, social international entrepreneurship, and multinationals and human rights development.

To join us, you will need a relevant PhD or equivalent qualification. You'll bring to the role a sustained record of publication output. Crucially, you will demonstrate the ability to develop a coherent world-leading research programme, with new concepts and ideas to extend intellectual understanding.
