Postdoctoral Fellow in Empirical Public Economics - (Skatteforsk)

The School of Economics and Business at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) is looking for a curious and ambitious postdoctoral fellow to join Skatteforsk – Norwegian Center for Tax Research, one of Europe’s most dynamic hubs for cutting-edge tax research.

At Skatteforsk, you’ll work at the forefront of issues that shape economies and societies:

• Tax avoidance and evasion
• Individual’s use of tax havens, illicit financial flows, and capital flight
• Tax policy and enforcement

You’ll join a vibrant team driven by collaboration, big ideas, unique data, and become part of our global network of top scholars.

What we offer:

• A full-time 3-year postdoc with no teaching obligations (with the possibility of taking on teaching, in exchange for extending the duration of the position).
• The opportunity to be granted access to rich administrative datasets.
• A rapidly expanding research environment.
• Opportunities to launch your own projects, contribute to high-impact empirical work, and shape grant proposals.
• A buzzing academic calendar: seminars, workshops, annual conference, international visits, and strong outreach to policymakers and the public.

What we’re looking for:
You have (or will soon have) a PhD in public economics or a related field, strong empirical skills (Stata a must), excellent communication abilities, and a drive to work at the research frontier. Experience with administrative data is a plus.

If you're excited by real-world impact, thrive in international teams, and want to grow fast as a researcher, we want to hear from you.

Due to regulations in the Norwegian public sector, all applications must be submitted via JobbNorge: https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/289736/postdoctoral-fellow-in-empirical-public-economics
