Liverpool Business School

Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is a distinctive, unique institution, rooted in the Liverpool City Region and with a global presence. Our students and staff, past, present, and future, are the beating heart of our city and can be found in every corner of every industry and community. We couldn’t exist anywhere else and have shaped the city in which we belong. Working with the people of Liverpool to improve lives and support communities is at the heart of why we were founded and why we exist today.

As a Business School we are committed to embedding digital literacy, employability, and internationalisation into all of our programmes. We are proud to provide a first-rate teaching and learning environment backed by research which is central to our School ethos, as is delivering practical business solutions to local, national, and international businesses.

We are now seeking a Research Fellow to support the growth of research done by our accounting and finance team, under the leadership of Professor Andros Gregoriou (LBS Head of Research). Though part of a wider team, you will work independently to develop research projects and papers as well as to collect and analysing data.

In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction, and development support as well as family-friendly policies.

This is an exciting time to join the university as we deliver the LJMU Strategy 2030 and its vision of LJMU as an inclusive civic university transforming lives and futures, by placing students at the heart of everything we do.

If you feel that this is the role you have been looking for and your skills and experience can make a real difference at LJMU, we look forward to hearing from you.
