We are looking for an Executive Assistant to join our team.

Join a role where you directly empower two Executive Vice Presidents and play a central part in keeping our daily business running smoothly. Both executives are based in Tampere, and you are expected to work on-site in Tampere to enable close collaboration.

In this position, you’ll take ownership of executive coordination, shape efficient ways of working, and ensure that daily operations are seamless and well‑managed. You’ll work closely with leadership, influence key activities, and make a real impact on how our teams collaborate and succeed.

Your responsibilities

• Manage complex calendars, travel arrangements, and confidential communications to ensure executives stay prepared and focused.

• Coordinate meetings, workshops, agendas, minutes, and key events in close collaboration with internal stakeholders.

• Partner with executive teams to anticipate needs, prioritize issues, and support strategic initiatives.

• Serve as a central point of coordination for practicalities.

Expectations for you

• You have an HSO, bachelor’s, or master’s degree in business or a related field, along with several years of experience as an executive assistant.

• You communicate fluently in Finnish and English and work confidently with MS Office, Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint.

• You manage multiple tasks independently and thrive in fast‑paced environments with discretion and professionalism.

• You bring strong interpersonal skills, a customer‑oriented mindset, and a proactive, hands‑on approach.

• You are able to work on-site in Tampere on a regular basis.

To succeed in this role

You excel when handling complex coordination, balancing priorities, and supporting senior leaders with clarity and confidence.
