About TenureTracker
TenureTracker focuses on direct institute career pages so the listings feel broader, fresher, and less dependent on third-party job-board coverage.
Source model
Direct crawling of institute career pages
Primary focus
PhD-level academic openings
Current footprint
Europe, North America, and expanding global coverage
This website aims to provide comprehensive listings of postdoctoral and professorial positions (or positions requiring a PhD) at top research institutes across the world. Existing academic job boards are often incomplete, regional, or fragmented—at best showing 20-30% of available positions at any given time.
Rather than aggregating postings from other job websites, this site directly crawls the career pages of individual universities and research institutes worldwide. This approach ensures broader coverage and more up-to-date listings, including positions that may never appear on traditional job boards.
The platform focuses on academic positions requiring a PhD, including postdoctoral fellowships, research positions, tenure-track positions, lectureships, and professorships at internationally recognized research institutions.
AI-assisted details
All public summaries and structured position details are generated or extracted with AI from the original advert to make openings easier to scan. Authoritative application requirements, dates, and eligibility can always be verified through the linked source advert.
Job seekers
Find academic openings across many institute sources without checking dozens of separate career pages.
Academic PIs
Submit individual not-for-profit academic openings for review. Optional Buy Me a Coffee contributions can support the service, but they are not required for eligible academic PI listings.
Institutes and companies
Institute and company page/listing subscriptions are planned at EUR 100 per month. Company job listings require payment before publication.
