    OBNET - Please see the position announcement below, and if you are not interested yourself, I would greatly appreciate it if you could forward this to any psychology colleagues who you feel might be appropriate and interested in the position (not just I-O psychologists).  I'm also happy to discuss the position further with those interested.  Many thanks! - Fred
