About the role

The University of Chicago Booth School of Business invites applications for tenure-track positions in Macroeconomics for 2027-28. We seek scholars who hold a PhD or are near completion by July 1, 2027, with expected appointment as assistant professor upon completion; later promotion to associate. Candidates should demonstrate the ability to conduct original high-quality research, teach effectively, and contribute to a vibrant academic community.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
