** The College of Business at The University of Findlay invites applications for a full-time, tenure-track faculty position with the rank of Assistant Professor in Finance and Economics beginning in August 2026.  The program seeks an applicant who believes in a team approach, dedicated to providing a quality education, and desires to offer experiential learning opportunities for students in an effort to grow the program.  

The candidate will be expected to teach a range of finance and economics courses, including upper-level and master’s courses; provide academic advising and mentoring to undergraduate students; participate in service activities at the college, and university levels, including committee service and student engagement initiatives.  The business program is ACBSP accredited.

The minimum requirement for this position is a doctorate in Economics or Finance with degree work from an accredited university.  Those near Ph.D. completion (ABD) will also be considered, but at the instructor level with an expectation that the degree will be completed within one year of appointment.  Those with a master’s degree will also be considered, but only for non-tenure track consideration.  

Other desired qualifications include individuals with CFP, CFA, and/or FRM designations.  Teaching and managerial work experience, a successful track record of research or strong potential towards scholarly works, and familiarity with current business software are also desired qualifications.  Candidates must have the ability to develop and deliver curriculum, meet the demands of the position in a timely manner, and assess student learning outcomes.  

In addition, candidates should have outstanding communication and interpersonal skills, and the potential to assume leadership roles within the college.
