Job Qualifications: Applicants should have completed or be nearing completion of a Ph.D. in Accounting and demonstrate potential for excellence in research and teaching or a record of outstanding research and teaching appropriate to the rank. Applications in any area of accounting are encouraged.

Job Description: Responsibilities include developing and maintaining an active research program, teaching undergraduate and graduate courses, supervising Ph.D. students, and contributing to other teaching and administrative initiatives within the Division and the Sauder School of Business. Teaching and service duties are aligned with those at other research-intensive universities.

The appointment is available starting July 1, 2026, or January 1, 2027, subject to budget approval. The expected salary range is $220,000-$300,000 annually.

Application Materials:

• Record of teaching effectiveness

• Teaching dossier or record of teaching effectiveness, if applicable
• Three letters of reference (Four for the associate rank), which can be included with the application or sent separately to ensure confidentiality

Applicants should compile all documents into a single PDF named with their last name (e.g., Smith.pdf) and submit via email to [emailprotected], with the subject line "Accounting Position." References should be sent separately by the referees. The application deadline is August 15, 2025, but applications may be considered until the position is filled.

We invite applicants to complete an equity survey at https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_aVtaMWjwsMEcO4l. Participation is voluntary and anonymous, aimed at understanding diversity and potential barriers. The survey takes a few minutes, and respondents may choose not to answer any question.
