Senior Lecturer/Reader in Management Science/Operational Research
Department of Management Science, Strathclyde Business School
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland

The Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde is seeking to recruit a Senior Lecturer or Reader in Management Science/Operational Research (MS/OR). The appointee is expected to be an accomplished and enthusiastic researcher in Management Science/Operational Research. We particularly welcome applications from, but are not limited to, those with a research interest in the areas of operations management, innovation, simulation. We seek individuals who have a strong methodological basis, the potential to make significant research contributions and an ability to translate theory to practice through collaborative research with user groups. The department has a strong reputation in both theory and collaborative research, runs a popular Masters programme in MS/OR, and has a strong doctoral programme. It is part of Strathclyde Business School, one of the top ranking UK Business Schools.

MS/OR is a key area for the university in developing its Technology and Innovation Centre. This centre links industry and public bodies with the university through programmes in Energy, Health, Future Cities and Advanced Manufacturing. MS/OR researchers contribute to each of these themes. Strathclyde's Technology and Innovation Centre sits alongside its other industrial research centres and the UK's first Fraunhofer Centre. The university's innovative approach to industrial collaboration is one of the factors that led it to being awarded UK University of the Year in 2012 and UK Entrepreneurial University of the Year in 2013. The university's rapidly developing industrial research collaborations offers tremendous opportunities for MS/OR researchers.

Informal enquiries can be made to Professor Susan Howick (Head of Department). Telephone +44 141 548 3798; email: susan.howick@strath.ac.uk

Online applications can be found at http://vacancies.strath.ac.uk/ and should be submitted by the closing date of 22nd June 2014. Further information about the department is available at http://www.strath.ac.uk/mansci/.
