The position is full-time. We expect a starting date during the academic year 2024-2025.
Applicants must hold a doctoral degree relevant for the position alongside an excellent track record in research and teaching in international law.

Candidates are expected to show full commitment to working in an interdisciplinary, international environment with English as the language of instruction and operation. The candidate would initially be on a fixed-term contract of negotiable length prior to a tenure review. In highly exceptional circumstances, appointment may be with tenure.
