Position Summary:

The Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College invites applications for a tenure-track

faculty position at the rank of Associate or Full Professor in the area of operations and supply chain management beginning in August 2027. We are seeking a seasoned educator and thought leader who combines a strong academic foundation with a passion for shaping practice-oriented insights for today's business leaders.

We are seeking a seasoned educator and thought leader who combines a strong academic foundation with a passion for shaping practice-oriented insights for today's business leaders. This is not a traditional operations management role. We are looking for someone who brings a systems thinking perspective to operations that emphasizes helping leaders understand how operational choices create second- and third-order effects across interconnected value chains and organizations. We are particularly interested in candidates exploring technology's evolving role in operations ranging from business analytics and automation to AI-enabled decision-making, including how large language models and domain-specific AI shape operational resilience and performance. While this position emphasizes practical impact and executive education, we remain an AACSB-accredited institution with high standards for research productivity. Candidates must have a distinguished record of publishing in peer-reviewed academic journals as well as demonstrated excellence in teaching. However, this role is ideal for a scholar who has excelled in traditional academic research and MBA teaching and is now seeking to broaden their focus toward executive education, applied research, and practitioner-oriented thought leadership.

We especially welcome candidates who:

• Have published in respected peer-reviewed journals and built a strong scholarly reputation, but also seek to translate those insights into frameworks, tools, and programs that impact practicing managers and executives.
• Can connect systems thinking and foresight to operational strategy, helping organizations navigate uncertainty, interconnected risks, and emerging technologies.
• Have experience engaging with business leaders or industry forums and can design executive education offerings that elevate Crummer's presence in practice-oriented learning.
• Are collaborative and thrive in Crummer's interdisciplinary, small-school environment, which emphasizes applied learning, close student-faculty engagement, and strong industry connections.
