(Sorry for double postings) Dear colleagues, My university Université Libre de Bruxelles (Brussels, Belgium) is announcing a vacancy for a permanent possition in “Algebra and combinatorics”. Please feel free to forward this announcement to anyone who might be interested. More information (e.g about formal requirements and teaching load) is in the official vacancy announcmeent to which your can find a link below. Candidates can contact me directly if they have any questions, here are already some first remarks: . The vacancy is open for eligible candidates working in any subfield of algebra or any subfield of combinatorics (so there is no need to work in both fields !). . There is a probational period of 3 years before the position becomes permanent, however there is no selection proceedure after 3 years, only a check if the candidate satisfies all requirements after 3 years, the most important one is being able to teach in French at the end of this period (an extension of the probation period could be negociated if there are exceptional circumstances). . The hiring is at the level of “Chargé de cours”, which is the first of 3 levels of permanent positions in our system (the two next levels being “professeur” and “professeur ordinaire”). . The announcement tells that it is “subject to the approval by the academic board of 24th November 2025”. This is purely formal decision; to give the candidates maximal time to prepare their file (deadline for submissions being 31 January 2026), the vacancy is already made public now. . The teaching load as mentioned in the announcement is not definitive yet (and depends for example on the fact whether the candidate can start teaching in French from the start of the contract). In particular, the candidate can propose a different subject for the Master course in the teaching load.
