Biography

Dr. Jaylan Azer is a Senior Lecturer in Marketing at Adam Smith Business School. She is the Postgraduate Research Convenor and the Quality Enhancement & Assurance Officer of the Management Subject Group. She is also a member of the University's Senate. She holds a Ph.D. in Marketing from the University of Strathclyde. Previously, she was a Lecturer in Marketing at the same School (2019-2022) and at Edinburgh Napier University (2017-2019). Her academic interests are complemented by her 15 years of practical experience, including senior management roles in Retail Banking. 

Jaylan's current research interest focuses within the services domain on the complementary concepts of actor/customer engagement, value co-creation, and Service-dominant Logic (SDL). Within this domain, Jaylan has a focus on consumer behaviour and its impact in digital contexts, especially online social networks. Her research has been published in Marketing and Service journals of high impact factor, including Journal of Service Research, Journal of Business Research, Journal of Service Management, Journal of Marketing Management, Journal of Service Theory and Practice, and Journal of Services Marketing. Jaylan is an ad-hoc reviewer for international Services and Marketing Journals and Conferences.

Jaylan's research has a solid practical impact, exemplified in recent projects with Visit Scotland and the Scottish Tourism Alliance. Currently, she is working on a project based on her research in service management, consumer behavior, and social media marketing with Outer Hebrides Tourism. This project involves food outlets and restaurants located in the Isle of Harris, Uist, and Barra. Also, her research attracts opportunities for Knowledge Exchange, exhibited in several invitations to participate as a keynote speaker in public events.
