The Yale School of Management (SOM) is soliciting applications for a full-time, tenure-track faculty position in Accounting at the rank of either Assistant or Associate Professor.
This position requires a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Accounting. Applicants with a Ph.D. in a field that is broadly related, such as Finance or Economics, will also be considered if they have a demonstrated interest in Accounting. Individuals who are currently ABD must be awarded their degree before December 31, 2027.
The selected candidates are expected to conduct high-quality research, representing early demonstration of intellectual leadership, in their area of study and advise students in SOM’s Ph.D., master’s, and executive education programs.
This is a full-time, tenure-track faculty position located at the Yale School of Management in New Haven, Connecticut. Appointments will be made for the 2027-28 academic year, beginning July 1, 2027. Individuals with little to no prior work experience in a full-time faculty position will be considered at the Assistant Professor rank, but more experienced applicants who have held a full-time ladder-track faculty role for a few years may be eligible for hire as Associate Professor (tenure-track) provided they meet the University’s qualifications for that rank.
Qualified applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, the job market paper that will be the primary topic of their job talk, and a research statement (optional). Candidates applying from doctoral programs or post-docs are also required to arrange for three letters of reference. Reference requests to proposed letter writers will be immediately sent via e-mail. Advanced assistant and associate professors being considered for the position will be contacted for references if they do not wish to supply these at the time of application.
Complete applications must be submitted in Interfolio no later than November 1, 2026.
The University is committed to basing judgments concerning the admission, education, and employment of individuals upon their qualifications and abilities and seeks to attract to its faculty, staff, and student body qualified persons from a broad range of backgrounds and perspectives.
Additionally, in accordance with this Policy and as delineated by federal and Connecticut law, Yale does not discriminate in admissions, educational programs, or employment against any individual on account of that individual’s sex; sexual orientation; gender identity or expression; pregnancy, childbirth or related conditions; race; color; national or ethnic origin; religion; age; disability; protected veteran status, or other protected classes as set forth in federal and Connecticut law.
The final candidate, upon acceptance of a contingent offer of employment/faculty appointment, may be required to disclose whether they are, or have been, the subject of any disciplinary proceeding (investigation, hearing, etc.) at previous institutions or employers, and may also be subject to a background screening. Candidates who materially misrepresent information on their resume or other application materials are ineligible for hire/appointment. Final candidates may also be required to sign a release to allow Yale to solicit information regarding any substantiated conduct violations from current and/or past employers.
