Join A World-Class Economics Team At UQ

The School of Economics at The University of Queensland (UQ) is excited to invite applications for two academic positions at either Lecturer (Level B) or Senior Lecturer (Level C) level, in any field of economics.

As a teaching and research academic, you’ll be part of a vibrant, internationally recognised community at UQ. Whether you're early in your academic journey or looking to take the next step, this is your opportunity to build a global research profile and contribute to innovative teaching in one of Australia’s leading economics schools.

Note for US applicants: In the Australian academic system, a ‘Lecturer’ is equivalent to an ‘Assistant Professor’ in the US, while a ‘Senior Lecturer’ is a more advanced role.

Why UQ?

At UQ, we don’t just offer a job - we offer a career with purpose, flexibility, and support. The greater benefits of joining the UQ community are broad: from being part of a Group of Eight university, to recognition of prior service with other Australian universities, up to 26 weeks of paid parental leave, 17.5% annual leave loading, flexible working arrangements including hybrid on site/WFH options and flexible start/finish times, and genuine career progression opportunities via the academic promotions process.

If you're passionate about economics and ready to make a meaningful impact through research and teaching, we’d love to hear from you.

Relocating from interstate or overseas? We’ll support you with the visa sponsorship process and a relocation support package.
