The Kühne Logistics University (KLU, named after the generous donor Klaus-Michael Kühne) is a newly founded private business school with a strong emphasis on logistics research and education. It is located in the large and vibrant city of Hamburg, Germany. The KLU has received state recognition by the authorities of the local state Hamburg. Within the coming five years, the KLU is committed to building a faculty in all areas of business administration, who will contribute to a strong international reputation in research and teaching in business, especially in logistics. The working language is English.

The KLU seeks to appoint - starting as early as September 2012 or by mutual agreement - one professor in the field of logistics management. Candidates specializing in any aspect of logistics will be considered, though expertise in transportation, service providing, and third-party logistics would be advantageous.   Candidates should combine a strong research record with practical understanding of the needs of the logistics sector.
