The Faculty of Business & Economics

Housed in the state-of-the-art architecturally designed Sir Owen G Glenn Building, our top-ranked, triple-crown accredited University of Auckland Business School is seeking to recruit established and early career academics to join its world-class faculty. It is the largest business school in New Zealand and has an international reputation for academic excellence. The Business School comprises seven academic departments with a strong reputation across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. We support exceptional, internationally recognised faculty characterised by their desire to make a difference to business in New Zealand, the global economy, and society more generally. The University has recently set a new strategic plan, Taumata Teitei,  which can be interpreted from te reo Māori as pursuing excellence, despite uncertainty. It recognises the exciting challenges posed by the concerns of our age. Applications are encouraged from scholars committed to making an impact through research and teaching and with interests in any area of relevance to business.

Our Business School strives to influence policy development, research, and thought leadership in New Zealand business, focusing on our four strategic research and education themes – innovation and value creation, succeeding in international markets, productivity, sustainable business, and leadership and governance. We also have an ecosystem of well-supported Research centres across the disciplines. Your desire to identify and promote opportunities for industry engagement will further enhance the reputation, relevance, and influence of the Business School.

All academics within the Business School will be based in disciplinary areas that form part of larger academic departments; you will have the responsibility for delivering high-quality, relevant, and impactful learning experiences that maximise employment outcomes for graduates. Your understanding of academic and business environments and engagement in co-curricular activities relating to business will help deliver wider economic benefits. The disciplinary areas are intended to provide a supportive and collegial environment for all researchers and in particular, to ensure focused mentoring for early and mid-career researchers.

The School enjoys excellent international links and leading scholars from top overseas universities often visit the Business School and teach courses in our undergraduate and post graduate programmes.
