We believe that inspiring our people to do outstanding things at Durham enables Durham people to do outstanding things in the world. Being a part of Durham is about more than just the success of the University, it’s also about contributing to the success of the city, county and community.

Our University Strategy is built on three pillars of research, education and wider student experience, but also on our keen sense of community and of inspiring others to achieve their potential. 

The Department of Accounting at Durham University seeks to appoint a talented individual to the role of Assistant Professor (Research and Education). The Department is QS ranked 76th worldwide, 13th in the UK. We welcome applications from those with research and education interests in the broad field of accounting and we are particularly eager to hear from applicants who can demonstrate an interest in our three strategic themes of digitalisation, sustainability and public accountability.

This post offers an exciting opportunity to make a major contribution to the development of internationally excellent research and teaching while allowing you unrivalled opportunities to progress and embed your career in an exciting and progressive institution. For more information, please visit our department pages.

The Department has close links to two research centres. These are the Ethical Finance Accountability and Governance (EFAG) centre which focuses on sustainability and sustainable development goals, and the International Centre of Public Accountability (ICOPA) which focuses upon public accountability. In addition, the Durham Rutgers Accounting Analytics Network (DRAAN) sits within the Department which focuses on data analytics and artificial intelligence.

Assistant Professors (Research and Education) are encouraged to focus on quality and innovation throughout their teaching and research activity but will also be asked to provide genuine citizenship - not just in your field, but across the University environment, and in the way the Department functions administratively.

The successful applicant will have the freedom to deliver teaching and pursue research that is world leading and world changing, in terms of originality, significance and rigour and will be supported in their ambitions to publish internationally significant research in their area of interest. The Department will also provide resources to enable the successful candidate to attend conferences and fund research activity.

We strive to provide a working and teaching environment that is inclusive and welcoming and where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate these key principles as part of the assessment process.
