**Your job**:
Your main goal is to further advance and profile economic research and education according to the field of expertise in line with the importance of the chair.

We offer:

- an employment contract for 12 months with the prospect of a permanent employment contract; If your full professorial tenure after the temporary appointment period of five years is unexpectedly not converted into a permanent appointment, permanent employment in a UHD position remains possible;
- a working week of 28-36 hours and a gross monthly salary between €6,894 and €10,038 in the case of full-time employment (salary scale H2 under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU));
