Lecturer in AI and Analytics

Birkbeck, University of London, is seeking to recruit a permanent Lecturer in AI and Analytics to support its Business School next year, 2027. Birkbeck's Business School offers an excellent research-friendly environment, with its Bloomsbury location offering access to a range of academic institutions in central London.

As Lecturer, you will be expected to teach across our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in Management and Artificial Intelligence and Analytics and to teach on our overseas programmes in China and elsewhere. You will be supported to publish internationally excellent research, and contribute to the effective delivery and development of our portfolio of taught programmes. This is a tenure-track post.

We are seeking to broaden our research and teaching portfolio in ways that build on our existing strengths. For this appointment, and as per the title, we particularly welcome applicants with expertise in areas such as, but not limited to, Business/Management and Artificial Intelligence and Analytics, although outstanding candidates from all areas of Management will be considered.

This is an exciting time to be joining Birkbeck's Business School - we are a mission-focused and research-intensive school that is expanding both nationally and internationally. We are looking to recruit early career academics to not only enhance our teaching and research, but also to drive our objective of being a leading business school for academics to begin their careers.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
