POSITION: The Department of Management and Marketing in the School of Business at the College of Charleston invites applicants for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Management starting August 2016. Applicants should demonstrate effective research in strategic leadership, corporate governance, social responsibility, or related areas. Teaching responsibilities will include strategy, general management, and leadership courses at the graduate and undergraduate level, including at our new North Campus facility.

DEPARTMENT: Our department includes fifteen tenure-track management faculty who are committed to innovative teaching, scholarly excellence, and engagement with the local business community. Our junior faculty members maintain active research agendas and have published in journals such as the Academy of Management Learning & Education, Human Resource Development Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Business Ethics, the Leadership Quarterly, and Personnel Psychology, and junior faculty members in this field have submitted NSF grant proposals. We seek to add a new member who will contribute positively to a collegial intellectual environment.

All faculty positions at the College of Charleston are recruited through its PeopleAdmin online system at http://jobs.cofc.edu. Submit online (a) a letter of application, (b) a recent CV, (c) a statement of your teaching philosophy, (d) a statement of your current and projected research agenda, (e) unofficial graduate transcripts (official transcripts will be required for hiring), (f) one representative publication, and (g) complete contact information for reference providers who may subsequently be asked to serve as referees.

It is an exciting time to teach at the College of Charleston. The School of Business is thriving, and professional and academic opportunities are becoming available through the new North Campus facility. We also have a growing minor, "Leadership, Change, and Social Responsibility," and the School of Business is focusing on growing several student leadership programs (The Schottland Scholars; ENACTUS; Host of the SC Chapter of 2020 Women on Boards; the "Mind Your Business" component of the MBA Program; and host of the campus "Think Differently" forum). Moreover, the College of Charleston School of Business is a centerpiece in the Charleston community, with an active Board of Governors and access to community leaders.

The College of Charleston was founded in 1770 and is the thirteenth oldest college or university in the United States. In addition to its core liberal arts and sciences, the College offers selected graduate degrees including a one-year accelerated MBA program. As an urban university, the College is in the center of downtown Charleston, a progressive city for several years identified as one of the premier tourist destinations in the United States. The city hosts the annual Spoleto and Piccolo Spoleto festivals, the Charleston Wine and Food festival, Charleston Fashion Week, and the annual Southeast Wildlife Exposition. Charleston boasts a number of nationally-recognized chefs whose community spirit contributes substantially to the vibrancy of the city. But there is more to Charleston than hospitality and tourism: the region is home to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner plant (that employs over 6,000), to the East Coast's fourth largest port, and to a growing technology sector that includes NASDAQ-listed Benefitfocus and Blackbaud as well as over a hundred small and growing tech companies. Indeed, Charleston was one of a very limited number of cities recently on the Steve Case Rise of the Rest bus tour.
