The Department of Finance and Management Science at the Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration (NHH) in Bergen, Norway (http://www.nhh.no) invites applications for one or two junior positions. The position is for four years duration. The position will involve teaching on an average of one course per semester (45 teaching hours) and some additional graduate supervision within the Department. The position allows opportunity to qualify for higher-level positions.

The Department is especially dedicated to research and therefore primarily seeks applicants from top international schools, preferably educated in the USA. Applicants should have extensive personal experience in empirical finance, demonstrated by existing papers or a dissertation, and ideally by publications in first-rate American finance journals. Successful applicants will take responsibility for developing at least one Master's course and one PhD course in empirical finance and for supervision of PhD students with an interest in empirical issues.

Applicants should have completed-or be close to completing-a Ph.D. in Finance or Economics. The PhD must be completed by the appointment date.

In the event of equivalent qualifications, female applicants will be given preference.

Salary will be according to the State Salary Scale for Junior Positions, code 1352
(Post Doctor), 50-70 (NOK 343,600 - 494,600, currently corresponding to USD 48,740 - 70,155)

A 2% deduction will be made from the salary as pension contribution to the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund.

Applicants are requested to present a research project plan with their application. The research plan must specify a four-year research project in empirical finance. This project will be a part of the department's strategy to significantly strengthen its research in empirical finance within the next four years. Emphasis will be placed on the applicant's research profile and ability to contribute to the research environment. Information concerning professional and teaching education and work experience must be included as well as a list of all publications, testimonials, certificates, and any other documentation which may be useful in the evaluation of the application, such as reference letters. We request that 4 copies of all enclosures be sent to:
