Do you want to take part in the green transition and shape the future in manufacturing and industry? Do you have a passion for sustainability, innovation and engineering education?
We invite you to join our section
"Production, Transportation and Planning", where you will have colleagues with a mix of research and industry experience.

You will complement this team with your expertise in Sustainable Operations Management. We are particularly interested in researching the intersections between our team members' research areas, and the role of new technologies for creating sustainable operations and supply chains.
You will contribute to the section's research within the following areas:
- The impact of manufacturing companies on climate and nature, including GHG emissions, biodiversity, resource consumption, pollution, and land use
- Managing, controlling, reporting and improving ESG performance, including the legislative context for manufacturers (e.g. CSRD and the three scopes in the GHG protocol)
- The role and impact of technology in the sustainable development of industry
- Risks and opportunities for manufacturers arising from changes in climate, resource scarcity and environmental degradation
- Managing quality in manufacturing, including relevant standards and methods
Our section is diverse in culture, gender, nationalities, personality types, and career paths.
