Academics with corporate reporting expertise to apply for academic fellowship at EFRAG by 15 July 2022
EFRAG values conceptual and empirical contribution of academic researchers in its technical activity and is investing in its research activities and liaison and cooperation with academics. EFRAG is working both on its own Research Agenda and contributes European views and insights to the IASB’s research activities.
Since 2018, EFRAG is active in the sustainability reporting domain. In addition to its historical mission, in 2021 the European Commission mandated EFRAG to work on draft European Sustainability Reporting Standards now confirmed by the political agreement reached on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. Since 2017, EFRAG operates an Academic Panel and an Academic Network. EFRAG organises and contributes to academic workshops. The academic fellow will help us to develop these activities further and provide input from an academic perspective and experience to EFRAG’s activities. In consultation with EFRAG’s leadership team, the successful applicant will also identify which of the available projects he or she will focus on, in order to ensure relevance to his or her own academic work and future publications.We would welcome the academic fellow to start from 15 August 2022. If you are interested, please submit an application (including a motivation letter and CV) at rh@efrag.org.
We would appreciate to receive expressions of interest by 15 July 2022.
