Lang School of Business and Economics at the University of Guelph is pleased to invite external applicants for a faculty position at the rank of Assistant (tenure-track) or Associate Professor (tenured) in the area of Supply Chain Management.

The school seeks candidates who have both a strong record of scholarly achievement and a background in interdisciplinary thinking, particularly in the area of supply chain management. Prior teaching experience in teaching supply chain management is critical. Notably, candidates with a background in new program development will be regarded favourably.

The successful candidate is anticipated to be a proficient researcher specifically in supply chain management, and will shoulder a range of teaching responsibilities in this area. They are also expected to collaborate effectively with colleagues in food, tourism, and hospitality. While this position aims to hire an established scholar, it is open to emerging indigenous scholars. It is essential for candidate to possess an excellent track record of research publications in the field of supply chain management.

The Lang School of Business and Economics houses Longo’s Food Retail Laboratory, Schneider’s Food Research Laboratory and PJs Restaurant, which provide controlled environments for studying consumer retail choices and consumer perceptions of food. It also houses the Anita Stewart Memorial Food Laboratory where University of Guelph nutrition and hospitality students learn about food preparation, safety and culture. It also acts as an event space and broadcast studio for researchers to share their knowledge of food across the globe. The School of Hospitality, Food and Tourism Management is one of four departments in the Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics. While the successful candidate will be appointed to the School of Hospitality, Food and Tourism Management, they will be encouraged to form cross-disciplinary linkages both across Lang and with other food researchers across the University.

General Position Requirements: The ideal candidate will possess a Ph.D. and demonstrate a proven track record of scholarly achievement within a relevant discipline, suitable for an Associate Professor rank.  Candidates in the early stages of their academic career may also be considered for an Assistant Professor rank, particularly if their research focuses on indigenous foodways and supply chains. The candidate will be expected to contribute to undergraduate and/or graduate courses in their area(s) of expertise through scholarly teaching, course development, and supervision. Further, it is expected that the candidate will have established, or will be established, a proven track record in research.

The University of Guelph is the third largest employer in Guelph, a city of approximately 130,000 people, located about an hour drive west of Toronto, Ontario. University of Guelph is a top-ranked comprehensive university in Canada with an enrolment of more than 30,000 undergraduate and graduate students across over 40 academic units.
