Job Description & Qualification
The Erasmus School of Economics (ESE) invites applications at the Assistant Professor level in all areas of Finance. The starting date is negotiable but would typically be September 2027.

Applicants are expected to demonstrate excellence in research and either hold a PhD or expect to complete one in the near future. We are looking for candidates who have the potential to publish in the top finance or economics journals. Assistant Professors are appointed on a six-year tenure track, with a relatively low teaching load that allows substantial time for research. We offer a competitive compensation package. Candidates recruited from abroad may qualify for the Dutch expat tax ruling, under which up to 27% of salary can be paid tax-free (subject to conditions).

Application Procedure
Applications received by November 18, 2026 (23:59 CET) are guaranteed full consideration. Applicants should submit their cover letter, CV, job market paper, and three reference letters via EconJobMarket: https://econjobmarket.org/positions/12833.

First-round interviews will be conducted online in the week of December 14, 2026, during the European Job Market for Economists (EJME).

Note: ESE and the Rotterdam School of Management (RSM) run separate hiring procedures; applications submitted to ESE are not shared with RSM.
