The School of Business Administration at Portland State University seeks exceptional candidates for an Assistant or Associate tenure track position in strategic management beginning Fall 2017. The ideal candidate should have (1) an earned doctorate in business or related field with an emphasis in strategic management from a nationally-accredited institution (advanced ABD candidates will be considered but must have doctorate by August 15, 2017); (2) evidence or promise of a strong and innovative program of research in relevant areas of strategic management commensurate with career stage; (3) demonstration of recent teaching excellence in strategic management courses; and (4) a strong and continuing commitment to both research and teaching. Demonstrated research interest in secondary areas such as entrepreneurship, analytics, and social and environmental impact, consistent with the School's initiatives and that complement our faculty's research portfolio, will be viewed as a plus.

The School's active involvement with the region's industry partners and strong entrepreneurial community provides faculty ample research opportunities. We offer a stimulating, collegial environment that values a diversity of research approaches and topics, and supports research efforts through the provision of graduate assistantships, travel funds, summer support, and a teaching load conducive to effective scholarship. Our management faculty have published in flagship journals including the Academy of Management Journal, California Management Review, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, Global Strategy Journal, Journal of Business Venturing, Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of Management, Organization Science, Research Policy, and Strategic Management Journal. The School is AACSB-accredited, has a strong commitment to both research and teaching, and serves over 3,400 students. The School was recently ranked by the Princeton Review as "one of the best universities to major in business," and in 2015, Portland State University was ranked by U.S. News and World Report in the top 20 "most innovative" universities in the nation.

The university is dispersed over 49 acres of greenspace amidst the vibrant cultural and business center of downtown Portland. Portland is a thriving city of natural beauty considered to be a model for livability, environmental stewardship, and new urbanism principles. Portland is consistently ranked as one of the "best places to live" in the U.S., and is located within a two hour drive of mountains and the Oregon coast.
