The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.

Created in 2003, it strives today to meet tomorrow's major societal challenges, by nurturing an interdisciplinary approach and international outlook, investing in scientific quality and innovation, as well as offering personalised and multilingual teaching. The institution places particular emphasis on research with impact. To achieve this goal, its research priorities focus on digital transformation, medicine and health, as well as sustainable and societal development.
The University invests in its knowledge and technology transfer through an attractive intellectual property policy and numerous partnerships. 7,500 students are enrolled at Uni.lu, of which 1,000 are doctoral candidates. With 300 professors, students have privileged access to world-renowned expertise.
Times Higher Education ranks Uni.lu 20th in the Young University Ranking 2024 and among the top 250 universities in the world.

Professorial appointments and evaluations are a critical aspect of the university's success and reputation. Recruiting high-calibre professorial staff ensures that our institution maintains – and further develops – its high standard of research and education, fostering an environment of academic excellence and innovation. The University has created a new Office of Professorial Affairs to improve its ability to identify, attract and retain top academic talent to our faculties and interdisciplinary centres and build up a robust and strategic framework for planning and managing professorial appointments and evaluations. The mandate of the new office is to support and coordinate the planning and full life cycle of academic recruitment and promotions in interaction with all stakeholders and to further develop the processes for these and other professorial affairs activities.

As part of the creation of the new office within the rector’s portfolio, the University is looking to initially hire for three roles:

  • Team leader
  • Professorial appointments and evaluation specialists (2 positions)

We’re looking for people driven by excellence, excited about innovation, and looking to make a difference.
