[Horst Treiblmaier]

*Research Associate in the Field of Quantitative Methods*

The Department of Supply Chain Management at the University of Applied 
Sciences Upper Austria (http://www.logistikum.at/en/home.html) invites 
applications for a position as Research Associate in Quantitative 
Methods. The position will begin September 2014 or as soon as possible 
thereafter.

A leader in teaching and research, the University of Applied Sciences 
Upper Austria offers practice-oriented and internationally recognized 
higher education in 50 Bachelor's and Master's programmes. As a research 
partner for business and industry we develop innovative solutions. We 
are a diverse group of researchers and educators interested in 
optimization, statistics, simulation, and a wide array of applications 
in supply chains and transportation systems. We value mathematical and 
technical depth, experience with qualitative and quantitative research 
methods and applications in practice.

The research associate will work with our team of four researchers 
currently doing work on supply chain forecasting, supply chain 
resilience and ICT support for supply chains. One of the main tasks will 
be the collection and analysis of empirical data. Our priority is 
finding a candidate who can excel, which means that we are interested in 
applicants from all fields, not just Supply Chain Management.

Candidates must demonstrate experience in statistical analysis, either 
qualitative or quantitative data analysis, data collection and cleaning 
of data. Additional requirements include experience in project 
management, conducting interviews, literature reviews and survey design. 
Management or consulting experience is desirable though not essential. 
Excellent English skills are required. The position is a 2-year 
appointment with potential conversion to ongoing appointment. The 
average gross wage per year is 45.000 Euro with a strong willingness to 
overpay depending on qualification. Costs arising from applications will 
not be reimbursed.

This position is open until filled. Priority will be given to those 
applications received by August 15, 2014. Interested candidates should 
send a CV, several publications, a list of references, and a cover 
letter describing research and career interests to Horst Treiblmaier 
(horst.treiblmaier at fh-steyr.at<mailto:horst.treiblmaier at fh-steyr.at>).
