The University of Surrey is a global university with a world-class research profile and an enterprising and forward-thinking spirit committed to research and innovation excellence and to benefitting the economy, society and the environment.

About our school

With over 40 members from more than 15 countries, the School of Economics at Surrey enjoys a strong reputation for Research and Teaching in Economics, built upon a commitment to high quality, rigorously founded applied and theoretical research, often of direct policy significance. We have recently invested heavily to recruit staff whose innovative work is having a large impact on international research agendas.

The opportunity

To support our strategy, we would like to appoint at least one Senior Lecturer or Reader (i.e., Associate Professors, with the Reader title indicating a profile closer to full professor).

As our new Senior Lecturer or Reader, you’ll have the opportunity to fully immerse yourself into the intellectual life of the School of Economics, extending your high-quality research agenda, reaching out to external networks of collaborators. You’ll  be fully supported in contributing to research activities within the School, as well as participating in externally funded collaborative research projects, alongside your own. Through your teaching you’ll have the opportunity to play a key role in the leadership, engagement and satisfaction of our student population at any level, including the opportunity to mentor and support our outstanding MSc and PhD students.

We’re looking for global talent and will support you with your relocation, and for exceptional candidates, consideration will be given to a market uplift on salary.

About you

You’ll have an excellent record of publications in internationally recognised journals, success in module development and curriculum innovations, and experience of associated administrative duties. You’ll share our world-class ambitions, possess strong leadership skills and  will thrive in a values led collegiate community. You’ll be committed to high quality and rigorous Research with an excellent reputation in Teaching and student satisfaction.

Application process

We encourage applications from candidates from any field in Economics and candidates will be appointed at the appropriate level within our salary range. Please submit a cover letter, indicating how your profile would enhance the School’s research and teaching environment, and a copy of your CV along with the names of three referees. Applications will be reviewed on a continuous basis.

At Surrey, we are committed to providing an inclusive environment that offers equitable opportunities for all, in the pursuit of Surrey’s vision to be a leading global University. We work together to create a truly inclusive culture. We place great value on diversity and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. We are seeking to increase the diversity within our community and would particularly encourage applications from under-represented groups, such as women, people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups and people with disabilities. Appointments will always be made on merit.

Informal enquires should be directed in the first instance to Professor Maurizio Zanardi, Head of School of Economics, via m.zanardi@surrey.ac.uk
