Full Text of JOE Listing:
The PCAOB established the Center for Economic Analysis to study the role and relevance of the audit in capital formation and investor protection, and to encourage related economic research. The Center advises the Board on how economic theory, analysis, and tools can be used to enhance the effectiveness of PCAOB program areas, including standard setting, inspections and other oversight activities.
To further that mission, the Center for Economic Analysis is soliciting interested applicants for up to four fellowship positions during the 2015-2016 academic year.
Fellows are generally expected to be in residence at the PCAOB in Washington, DC, for the academic year to work with the Founding Director, Center staff and other Fellows. They will conduct economic research on auditing matters that will inform the oversight activities of the PCAOB in protecting investors. These include:
In exceptional cases, the PCAOB may permit a Senior Economic Research Fellow to be in residence at a PCAOB regional or satellite office and to travel to the PCAOB Washington, DC, office as needed.
Senior Fellows and Fellows will receive a salary commensurate with experience as well as a competitive benefits package.
