We seek to further expand our top-level research and teaching on the organizing of innovation processes. Therefore, we are looking for internationally oriented, ambitious, and collegial scholars who share our passion for the field of organizing for innovation, (digital) technology, and collaboration. We specifically are seeking candidates showing great research potential with a track record of published papers or promising studies aimed at top journals.
For this opening, we look for someone with an ambition to conduct high quality research and teaching focusing on the collaborative aspects of technology and innovation, with an emphasis on themes like grand challenges and sustainable innovation. Topics may include, for instance, the use of digital technology to address environmental and societal challenges, the development of innovation ecosystems, (digital) infrastructures for innovation and experimentation, and organizing for system transformation. You are expected to engage with businesses and other societal stakeholders, in line with the Schools’ societal impact strategy.
