Contributions to service are expected from a subset of the following: disciplinary area group, business school, university, profession, academic field.

Teaching

Applicants must demonstrate strong experience teaching college or university-level introductory, intermediate or advanced financial and managerial accounting. Applicants must demonstrate some experience with curriculum development and creating and administering assessments. Applicants must demonstrate competency in case teaching, case exam writing, and case-based exam assessment. In-class contribution is a significant portion of Ivey’s course assessments, and as such, demonstrated strength in the equitable and rigorous assessment of student oral contribution to class discussion is required.

Service

Service expectations will be commensurate with rank. Service includes roles and responsibilities to the Managerial Accounting and Control area group, Ivey Business School, Western University, CPA Ontario and/or CPA Canada, among others.

Candidates who are invited for an interview or who are short-listed, and who have made a declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership for material advantage at Western, including where required or preferred for the position, will be asked to have their declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership affirmed through a relational accountability process, led by the Office of Indigenous Initiatives (OII), that is consistent with Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing. Please contact the OII directly for details on the affirmation processes: https://indigenous.uwo.ca/.
