The A.B. Freeman School of Business at Tulane University invites applications for a full-time, non-tenure track faculty position in Accounting with a primary focus on Taxation.

Candidates must be either:

* Professionally Qualified: Master's degree in Accounting or Taxation with a substantial record of recent professional experience.

* Academically Qualified: Ph.D. in Accounting or Taxation, or J.D. with ongoing scholarly and/or professional engagement.

Preferred:

* CPA license or significant professional tax experience.

* Substantial experience in pass-through entity taxation.

* Proven ability to teach technical topics clearly and with practical relevance.

* Interest in curriculum development and student mentoring.

* Ability to teach additional accounting topics beyond taxation.

* Experience with tax compliance or planning for partnerships, S corporations, or closely held businesses.

We welcome candidates from diverse backgrounds, including senior public accounting or corporate tax professionals and tax researchers committed to impactful teaching.
