Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team at Copenhagen Business School, focusing on the intersection of business and government. This two-year position is part of a prestigious project, The Corporate Revolving Door, led by esteemed researchers Benjamin Egerod and Jan Stuckatz.

The successful candidate will be responsible for conducting research within the scope of WP1, examining why firms hire revolvers and how they utilize them. This will involve working with large datasets on individual career trajectories, designing and fielding survey experiments, and collaborating with colleagues to achieve project goals.

About the Project

The Corporate Revolving Door project aims to study the drivers and consequences of the revolving door between public office and businesses worldwide. Our team will delve into two work packages: WP1, which investigates why firms seek to hire revolvers, and WP2, which explores the effects of revolvers on corporate non-market strategies and financial returns.

Your Responsibilities

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will:

  • Conduct research within the project scope, focusing on WP1
  • Work with large datasets, including cross-walking different databases using fuzzy matching of names
  • Design and run survey experiments to causally examine why firms hire revolvers and how they use them
  • Collaborate with colleagues to achieve project goals and co-author academic articles
Requirements and Qualifications

To be eligible for this position, you must have:

  • A completed or near-completed PhD in political science, economics, or a related field
  • Excellent research skills and professional proficiency in English (written and spoken)
  • Strong skills in quantitative methods, including experience working with large datasets
Benefits and Salary

This full-time position offers a competitive salary range of DKK 45,000 - DKK 55,000 per month, depending on qualifications and experience. You will also enjoy a comprehensive benefits package, including access to state-of-the-art research facilities and opportunities for professional development.
