The Haskayne School of Business (HSB), University of Calgary, invites applications for two academic positions, appointed at the rank of Assistant Professor (tenure-track) or Associate Professor (with Tenure) in AI and business. We seek candidates whose research examines questions on how AI is shaping the human and strategic core of business. This position is not intended for technical specialists or those who use AI primarily as an analytic or computational tool. The ideal candidates investigate the organizational, behavioral, or strategic implications of AI, especially with the advent of generative AI. For example, how it influences decision‑making, strategy, innovation, markets, innovation, leadership, work, or culture. We will consider applicants in the following four academic areas : Marketing, Organizational Behavior & Human Resources, Entrepreneurship, or Strategy. Areas of interest include (but are not limited to) :

• Human‑AI collaboration, leadership, and the future of work
• AI‑enabled innovation, entrepreneurship, and market transformation
• AI in marketing, customer engagement, and consumer decision‑making
• AI governance, ethics, and responsible AI in organization

The successful candidates will contribute to HSB's growing strength in digital transformation and advance understanding of AI as a social, organizational, and strategic phenomenon in business. Candidates will be expected to advance a strong research program in AI and develop and teach courses that focus on AI in business education, covering topics such as Generative AI, AI and Innovation, the Strategic Management of AI, and the Ethical Application of AI in Business, depending on their disciplinary area.

Candidates must have completed (associate rank) or be nearing completion (assistant rank) of a Ph.D. in a relevant management (or related) discipline. We seek collegial candidates with a strong research orientation, with expectations contingent on rank (see below). Duties include research, teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels, and service to the Area, the School, the University, and the community.
