We are looking for an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor in Risk Management. This position is located in the Insurance Science discipline within the Business Studies Unit of the Faculty of Management and Business.

We see risk management as a broad, interdisciplinary and strategically significant organizational practice, not merely a compliance or control function. In conditions of deep uncertainty, firms must continuously renew their competitive advantage, making risk management a core strategic capability. Business growth and value creation are increasingly unfolding in networks and ecosystems, demanding new competencies in collaborative risk governance and risk-sharing models. The professorship approaches risk management in this expansive sense — as a central enabler of firm-level value creation and growth — and is embedded within the Insurance and Risk Management study track. We value broad competence in risk management rather than a narrowly defined specialization. The selected candidate is expected to develop a research and teaching profile that connects strategic risk management theory with contemporary business challenges, including digitalisation, AI-driven decision-making and climate change adaptation. The research and teaching activities of the selected candidate should address relevant aspects of this focal area.

Relevant domains include (but are not limited to):

  • Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Strategic Risk Management (SRM) — including risk identification, assessment and governance across organisational levels, and risk management as part of corporate planning, value creation and growth.
  • Risk in the age of AI and digitalisation — modern risk modelling methods, responsible use of AI in uncertainty quantification, and risk management challenges in data-driven and algorithmically mediated environments.
  • Resilience and behavioural dimensions — uncertainty management, resilience-building capabilities, risk leadership and culture, and behavioural perspectives on preventive risk management.
  • Networked and collaborative risk governance — risk management in data-driven, digitalised, volatile, networked and collaborative operating environments, including risk-sharing models.

We are particularly interested in candidates with a strong background — or clear potential — in enterprise and strategic risk management, to advance traditional risk management by addressing uncertainty, complexity, and value creation. In addition to enterprise risk management and strategic risk management, suitable disciplinary backgrounds include business fields such as strategic management or marketing; engineering fields such as industrial engineering or knowledge management; or interdisciplinary fields such as futures studies.

The Business Studies Unit at Tampere University is a vibrant and collegial community of approximately 100 academic staff, educating around 350 business graduates annually across management and organisation, accounting, marketing, economics, insurance and risk management, and business and tax law. Our mission is to educate broad-minded business professionals with competencies valued in the evolving society, pursuing scholarship that combines academic excellence with societal relevance. We are ambitious academics who combine disciplinary depth with a genuine commitment to collaborative development, actively building our research and teaching profile toward the 2030s.

Insurance and Risk Management Research Group focuses on topics relevant to the insurance industry as well as risk management themes across industries. The research themes are often cross-disciplinary and multi-method, spanning the perspectives of individuals, organisations, and society. Key research themes related to risk management include decision-making under uncertainty and behavioural and strategic approaches to understanding risk.

Job description

We are seeking a highly motivated and accomplished academic who will:

  • pursue and lead high-quality scientific research in the field of risk management
  • develop the field of risk management as part of the Business Studies Unit
  • actively seek external research funding
  • contribute to societal impact and international collaboration in the field
  • contribute to the implementation of the insurance science curriculum through research-based teaching and thesis supervision, including teaching on campus
  • advance collaboration with the other disciplines of the Business Studies Unit as well as with national and international stakeholders in the field

Postdoctoral Fellow Positions in Platform Economics and Data-Driven Market Design, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen)

Position Introduction

We are seeking multiple highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to join an interdisciplinary team collaborating closely with a leading global ride-hailing platform.

A key strength of this collaboration is close partnership with the platform in designing and executing large-scale randomized controlled trials to evaluate marketplace interventions in real-world settings. Researchers also have access to exceptionally rich, high-resolution proprietary data, supporting rigorous causal inference, empirical analysis, and high-fidelity modeling and simulation of marketplace dynamics at scale.

Ongoing and planned research topics span information design, the use of generative artificial intelligence in marketplace decision-making, and the effects of pricing, incentives, and dispatch algorithms on participant behavior and market outcomes. The research program also involves multiple large-scale, platform-wide field experiments across several of these areas.

We welcome applicants with strong backgrounds in causal inference, structural estimation, advanced machine learning, and simulation. We are especially interested in scholars eager to apply cutting-edge methods to real-world data to uncover insights that are both academically rigorous and practically actionable. The overarching goal is to inform the design of smarter, more equitable, and more efficient platform ecosystems.

The position will be formally affiliated with the School of Management and Economics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen). The postdocs will be supervised by Prof. Yiming Zhang of CUHK-Shenzhen. The research team includes the following faculty from other institutions: Prof. Qiuping Yu (Georgetown), Prof. Yong-Pin Zhou (University of Washington), Prof. Yunan Ji (Georgetown), and our current postdoc and research assistants.

Since 2018, our research team has maintained a close collaboration with this ride-hailing platform. Our prior work has focused on the design and optimization of virtual queuing systems, combining large-scale randomized field experiments with structural modeling to generate actionable insights. Research from this partnership has been published in Management Science and received multiple awards, including the MSOM Service Management SIG Best Paper Award, INFORMS Service Science Best Paper Award, and the CSAMSE Best Practice Award. Notably, our recommended strategies were adopted platform-wide and led to an 80% improvement in customer experience.

Section for Health Data Science and AI

Department of Public Health

University of Copenhagen

We are looking for one Postdoc (4 years) and one PhD Student to join our research project “Pesticides and Human Health”. The positions are fully funded through a grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation. The start date for both positions is 1 September 2026.

Research project
Pesticides are widely used in agricultural production to combat unwanted insects and fungi around crops, thereby increasing output per acre. We humans are exposed to pesticides daily both through our diet and through the environment. This happens, for example, through the air we breathe.

We still lack answers pertaining to the public health consequences of indirect pesticide exposure. Pregnant women are particularly vulnerable to environmental impacts, as exposure to toxic substances can be transferred to the unborn child via the placenta and thus affect the development of the fetus. This can, for example, result in the mother losing her child or the child being born with congenital malformations.

This research project will investigate whether there is a causal relationship between indirect exposure to pesticides through the air and population health. We will investigate how pesticides affect the population's fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and children's health and education.

Postdoc position

Duties and Responsibilities

As a postdoc on the project, you are expected to:

  • Develop and co-author with the other project members on research papers.
  • Participate in workshops, seminars, and conferences.
  • Teach and disseminate your research

Qualifications

We are looking for a highly motivated, independent and enthusiastic scientist with the following qualifications:

  • A PhD degree in a relevant subject area, e.g., economics, epidemiology, biostats, data science, or a related discipline.
  • Experience in applied statistics and causal inference.
  • Experience in the field of health and/or environmental economics/epidemiology.
  • Experience in data science
  • Experience in working with large data sets.
  • A willingness to take on independent responsibilities and work collaboratively as part of a team.
  • Experience in writing and submitting academic research papers.
  • Experience with statistical software, e.g., Python, Stata, R, or SAS.

Application requirements

  • Motivated application (max one page)
  • Project description (max. 10,000 characters incl. spaces) not including bibliography). In your project description, we invite you to outline one research idea within the scope of the overall research project. You should focus on one research question you would like to answer and which approaches and methods you will apply. The exercise is designed to assess your research maturity and interests – specifically, your ability to identify meaningful questions, conceptualize a feasible research framework, and think through possible methods of analysis. Please note, you are not necessarily expected to pursue this particular idea during your postdoc; rather, this outline allows us to evaluate your potential as a researcher.
  • CV, including list of publications
  • Diploma and transcripts of records. If the PhD is not completed, a written statement from the supervisor will do, including the expected date of defence.

PhD position

3731 Three-Year Postdoctoral Position in Applied Economics and Economic History: The Age of Creativity – Understanding How Creativity Persists in Later Life

The Department of Economics at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applications for a three-year Postdoctoral position within the project The Age of Creativity: Understanding How Creativity Persists into Later Life, funded by a Carlsberg Foundation grant awarded to Professor Karol J. Borowiecki.

The workplace will be located at SDU’s Odense campus.

The starting date is flexible, with a preferred start of September 1, 2026.

Description

The successful applicant will join the Historical Economics and Development Group (HEDG), one of Europe’s leading centers for quantitative research in economic history, including the economic history of the arts.

HEDG is recognized for its strong research profile, attracting substantial external funding and media attention, and publishing widely in top academic outlets. As part of an international department where the working language is English, HEDG provides a vibrant and collaborative research environment.

The successful candidate will join the Carlsberg Foundation-funded project, The Age of Creativity: Understanding How Creativity Persists into Later Life. The project examines how creativity evolves across the life course, with a particular focus on its persistence into older age. It investigates when creativity peaks, why it can endure, and which personal, social, and institutional factors allow it to flourish over long careers.

Using unique large-scale longitudinal data on artists and academic scholars, the project applies methods from applied econometrics and economic demography to analyze creative productivity, originality, and influence over time. This research addresses a fundamental scientific question and contributes to policy debates on innovation, aging, and lifelong productivity in modern societies.

The successful candidate is expected to contribute to a high-quality research environment by pursuing an independent research agenda and actively participating in the research project led by Professor Karol Jan Borowiecki, while also fostering a positive and constructive working environment through openness to interdisciplinary collaboration across the department and with external collaborators.

185136 - Teaching Fellow (Departmental Lecturer) in Economics

Grade 8: £49,119 - £58,265 annum (with a discretionary range to £63,489 annum)

The Department of Economics is seeking to employ a Teaching Fellow (Departmental Lecturer-TF/DL) in Economics. The post is tenable for three years, and the successful candidate must be available to start no later than the autumn of 2026, as the role is currently vacant.

The principal task of the Departmental Lecturer will be to work with academic colleagues in the Department of Economics and with professional colleagues within the Saïd Business School to develop teaching materials for the MSc in Applied Financial Economics (MAFE) course. The MAFE is a new hybrid (part on-line, part in-person) degree which is due to take its first cohort of students in 26-27. Much of the academic content, which covers topics in micro, macro and financial econometrics, already exists and is currently being taught on the highly successful MSc in Financial Economics (MFE). However, the content of the MFE, which has been developed for in-person teaching, needs to be adapted to the requirements of high-quality on-line learning. It is this adaptation which will form the bulk of the postholder’s responsibility in the first two years in the post. Afterwards, the postholder will be expected to continuously maintain and review the materials for the MAFE and will also be required to deliver lectures and supervision at other programmes within the Economics Department.

The teaching and supervision load will be 336 ‘stint points’, which is the unit in which teaching and supervision contributions are measured. The total amount of teaching and supervision must not normally exceed this without the approval of the Head of Department.

The closing date for applications is midnight UTC on Monday, 20th April 2026 and applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis until the closing date. Interviews are expected to take place online soon after the closing date.

This position uniquely bridges academic research and policy‑making within a central bank. The successful candidate will have access to confidential, high‑quality granular data, collaborate with a community of over 100 PhD economists, and work from a dedicated desk at the Bank of Canada’s Ottawa headquarters. The role also offers strong visibility for research outputs and opportunities to present at internal seminars and external conferences.

Desired post-doc profile

· Interested in systemic risks, applied econometrics, empirical work, agent-based modelling, financial stability, macroprudential policies, banking, non-bank financial institutions

· Interested in modelling and research opportunities in a central bank who can benefit from access to confidential Canadian granular data in their research

· Willing to develop their experience bringing research to the applied policy world

· Eager to learn about central banks modelling toolkit in systemic risks

What expectations?

· Spend about half of their time on completing their own research

· Spend the other half on guided modelling and applied research with Bank of Canada PhD economists aimed at an academic publication with an applied policy companion paper

· Teach at least one class (36 hours/12 weeks) at uOttawa to be determined given the candidate’s expertise.

Possible applied project at the Bank of Canada, depending on the profile of the candidate

1. Develop the modelling of non-bank financial institutions (e.g. pension funds, insurance sector…) to be integrated into the Bank’s system-wide risk simulation toolkit

Incorporating non‑bank financial institutions into a system‑wide stress‑testing framework, alongside vulnerabilities such as liquidity, firesales, redemption, and counterparty risks across banks, households, pension funds, and insurers, would improve identification of when the Canadian financial system could generate spillovers and inform policies to mitigate those risks. Although pension funds and insurers are typically viewed as financial stabilizers due to their long‑term funding and risk‑pooling roles, they can become sources of amplification depending on their interconnectedness with other financial institutions

2. Expand the scenarios simulation model to improve reverse stress-testing capabilities

Reverse stress testing identifies the shocks, macro‑financial scenarios, and contagion channels that could generate system‑wide stress severe enough to damage the real economy. Unlike traditional stress testing, which evaluates resilience to a given scenario, it focuses on the conditions that would cause failures in the financial system. Machine‑learning methods could help identify the most harmful scenarios for the financial system.

3. Integrate a network contagion modelling into the Bank’s system-wide risk simulation toolkit

Interconnections can propagate risks throughout the financial system. For instance, cross-ownership of mutual funds by banks, lines of credit to non-banks, or households' deposits across institutions are network effects we want to better understand and integrate.

4. Develop a confidence channel for contagion across economic agents and financial markets and integrate it into the Bank’s system-wide risk simulation toolkit

Perceived confidence channels can amplify contagion to the financial system, generating for instance liquidity hoarding mechanisms among various financial market participants.

5. Explore the development of an agent-based model for system-wide stress-testing leveraging AI agentic tools

The next generation of agent-based model may lend itself to the use of agentic AI to simulate contagion behaviors.

What does the financial stability department of the Bank of Canada do?

The financial stability department monitors developments in the Canadian financial system, conducting analysis and research to assess vulnerabilities and risks for the Canadian financial system and to inform macroprudential policies. The department supports the Bank’s crisis management mandate—including provision of liquidity to financial institutions facing stress—and the Bank’s role as resolution authority for domestic designated financial market infrastructures. Research in the department contributes to the deepening of the understanding of financial stability and financial system issues.

The successful candidate would interact with the Modelling and Analysis of Risks team, a departmental hub composed of PhD researchers dedicated to developing and applying modelling innovations that deepen our understanding of financial stability risks, especially systemic risks.
