Applications are invited for appointment as Tenure-Track Professor/Associate Professor in Mental Wellness in the Department of Social Work and Social Administration (Ref.: 534905), to commence on December 1, 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter, on a three-year fixed-term basis, with the possibility of renewal and consideration for tenure before the expiry of a second three-year fixed-term contract. Applicants for the Professor position should possess strong academic credentials, outstanding academic leadership capabilities, extensive experience in conducting externally-funded and rigorous field-based research, and a distinguished record of scholarship. Exceptionally outstanding candidates may be considered for appointment on direct tenure terms subject to the University’s approval. The Department of Social Work and Social Administration has five research clusters carrying out cutting-edge research in Evidence-based Social Work Practice, Mental Health, Population Studies, Ageing, and Arts Therapy. All these are geared towards the promotion of wellbeing for all. We have a competent team of professoriate staff, teachers, and researchers working on a wide range of mental wellness issues for different target groups. More information about the Department can be obtained at Mental wellness is a core research focus of the Department. We are particularly keen to further strengthen our leading-edge team in developing novel non-pharmacological interventions. Applicants should have a shared vision for promoting mental wellness, proven research and publication records, and experiences of collaborations with practitioners. Applicants should hold a PhD (or equivalent) in Social Work with formal professional training in social work, clinical psychology or educational psychology. Possession of a recognised professional social work qualification and eligibility for registration as a social worker are strongly preferred. Substantial post‑qualification practice experience, particularly in mental health, psychosocial, or community‑based service settings, would be a strong asset. Candidates should also demonstrate solid research competence; experience in quantitative, behavioural, or cognitive intervention research will be an advantage. The appointee should be research active, and able to lead and participate in collaborative and interprofessional efforts with colleagues at the University or worldwide. Teaching courses, supervising students at both graduate and undergraduate levels, and administration of academic programmes are other core responsibilities. In addition, any successful candidate who is appointed as Professor will be expected to provide academic leadership by spearheading collaborative and interdisciplinary research and knowledge exchange initiatives, and mentoring the next generation of scholars. A highly competitive remuneration package commensurate with qualifications and experience will be offered, in addition to annual leave and medical benefits. At current rates, salaries tax does not exceed 15% of gross income. The appointment will attract a contract-end gratuity and University contribution to a retirement benefits scheme, totalling up to 15% of basic salary. Housing benefits will be provided as applicable. The University only accepts online applications for the above post. Applicants should apply online and upload an up-to-date C.V., a research statement and a teaching statement, and state the contact information of three referees on the online application form. At least one of the referees should comment on your research/teaching ability and your contribution to research/teaching in your Department, while the remaining two should have knowledge of your recent academic or employment experience. Enquiries about the post can be sent to the Head of Department. Review of applications will start as soon as possible and continue until August 31, 2026, or until the position is filled.
