The SOAS Economics Department has a mission to address the most urgent issues of our times.

Research in the Department proceeds along a set of themes including institutions and governance, money and finance; nutrition, health and development; informal economies; labour markets and welfare institutions, poverty and inequality, international financial institutions; feminist political economy and ecological macroeconomics.

The candidate will have demonstrable capacity to improve the academic standing of the School by carrying out and publishing research of the highest quality and by lecturing and tutoring students to a high academic standard.
