Fixed-term post, initially for 3 years (expected start date September 2025)
The Oxford University Centre for Business Taxation is a leading independent, interdisciplinary research centre that undertakes a broad research programme related to business taxation, including the impact of taxes on firm behaviour and the welfare effects of such behaviour, and the design of taxation and fiscal policy. For further information about the Centre, please visit https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/research/centres-and-initiatives/oxford-university-centre-business-taxation.
The Centre is seeking an outstanding researcher in economics, or related fields, such as accounting or corporate finance. The Research Fellow will be expected to undertake and lead independent high quality academic research into business taxation; to contribute to generating research income; to teach at graduate level on the MSc Taxation, and to engage in policy debate with government, business representatives and the media. Research output should primarily be aimed at leading peer-reviewed academic journals; however, all researchers in the Centre should also be prepared to contribute to policy-related output.
You are expected to have, or be completing, a PhD but highly experienced or differently qualified individuals in a relevant area will also be considered. You have a publication track record, or strong pipeline, of research papers published or targeting peer-reviewed journals. You possess specialist knowledge in the discipline and have experience in presenting your research in academic conferences. You have ability and willingness to generate research income, to teach at a masters level, to supervise and work with junior colleagues and to contribute to the administration of the Centre.
Enquires about the post may be made to the Centre Director, Professor Niels Johannesen niels.johannesen@sbs.ox.ac.uk. This is a fixed term post, initially for three years, but may be extended beyond that.
