is looking for a
Department: Organization Studies
Location: Tilburg
Contract size: 1.0 FTE (40 hours per week)
Contract duration: 4 years (12 months, followed by 36 months)
Monthly full time salary: €2.872 - €3.670 gross
Preferred starting date: February 1, 2025
Are you eager to contribute to helping start-up teams change into scale-ups? Are you actively interested in how start-up teams function (e.g. team composition, diversity, team dynamics)? Are you curious to find out which capabilities successful teams need to develop, and how successful start-up teams can be identified and designed (e.g. through the use of data-driven instruments)? Are you looking forward to researching the interface of organization behavior and more specifically team science and methodology (e.g. scale development)?
If you answer ‘yes’ to most or all of these questions, then we are looking for you to support our research team in the prestigious project “From Start-up to Scale-up: making an impact using Start-up Data.” The project is funded by the Province of Noord-Brabant and executed in a consortium with important partners from the Brabant start-up ecosystem, e.g., Braventure, Brainport, Tilburg University (TiU), Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM).
**Job description**
Being the birthplace of many start-up companies, the Brabant economy is dynamic and innovative. However, few of these start-ups develop into scale-ups. That is, few young companies enter a phase of accelerated growth to become a major company that provides a lot of employment in the region and creates substantial economic and societal impact. To remedy this, several organizations (like the BOM) provide training and support to start-ups. So far, much of this training and support is based on intuition and practical experience, and the effects of this training and support are not consistently monitored.
The research project “From start-up to scale-up” aims to investigate and increase the effectiveness of this training. It aims to develop a scientifically validated approach to supporting start-ups and build a database that enables continued monitoring of the start-ups. The research project consists of two PhD projects: one that focuses on developing entrepreneurial start-up teams (Tilburg) and one focusing on the customer development process (scaling-up) process (Eindhoven). The current vacancy describes the first PhD project.
This PhD project aims to increase our understanding of how entrepreneurial teams function and which dimensions of their interaction (e.g. planning, coordination, conflict management), composition (e.g. diversity), and leadership are predictive of their later success. Tasks for this PhD project include: 1) a literature study of relevant team literature streams (e.g. team dynamics, team processes & emergent states); 2) a review of existing scales in the field of entrepreneurial teams; 3) scale/instrument adaptation/development/validation; 4) data collection; 5) intervention study; 6) interpretation of results; and 7) consultancy report on improved development stage. Reports on intermediate steps are foreseen to help knowledge dissemination, for example to the Province.
**Your position**
Ensuring the practical relevance of the research and disseminating knowledge during the project are key aspects of this research project, and you are expected to play a major role in them. A steering committee will help manage the project and accomplish these goals.
**Your profile**
You have a Master’s degree (or an equivalent university degree) in Organization Behavior, Organization Studies, Management, Entrepreneurship, Business, or another relevant field.
You have a strong affinity for interdisciplinary research and collaboration with industry/start-ups.
You have strong analytical skills (e.g. quantitative analysis and scale development). You can work autonomously as well as in a team. You like to take the initiative and can work on a challenging topic that has fundamental and applied research aspects. You have excellent verbal and written communication skills, both in Dutch and in English.
**What do we offer?**
Tilburg University offers excellent benefits in a pleasant working environment:
- A position based on 1 FTE (40 hours per week).
- This is a vacancy for a temporary position following Article 2.3 paragraph 8 under b of the CLA DU. You will initially receive a temporary contract for 12 months to assess your suitability. If suitable, this contract will be followed by a new fixed-term contract of 36 months.
- Vacation pay of 8% and a year-end bonus of 8.3%.
- Over 8 weeks of vacation leave.
- The opportunity to work partly on campus and partly from home with a home office allowance of €2 per day.
- Reimbursement for sustainable commuting: walking, cycling, and public transportation.
- A monthly internet fee of
