Share X LinkedIn Facebook

We need a driven and proactive person to join our team and help us make things happen. This 4-6 month internship is a great chance to step into the heart of the Finnish startup ecosystem and get a real feel for how a lively community works.

What you’ll be doing

  • Helping with event arrangements: booking venues, coordinating catering, setting up spaces, and writing event invites
  • Taking care of the everyday practicalities that keep our office running smoothly
  • Giving a hand with small administrative tasks when needed

The role is varied: sometimes it involves hands-on support at events, and other times it’s more about behind-the-scenes administration. The most important thing is that you’re ready to jump in, take initiative, and get things done.

What we’re looking for

  • Good organizational and time management skills. An eye for the small details that make events special!
  • Basic IT and office software know-how 
  • Strong interest in events. Also, it doesn’t hurt to be interested in startups, and community building
  • A positive, proactive, problem-solving mindset
  • Fluent English is needed. Finnish is not a must, but basic knowledge is recommended.
  • The internship is well-suited, for example, for a university of applied sciences student (AMK) looking to gain practical experience alongside their studies.
  • Someone who is physically available at least a couple of days a week at our office (Maria 01) or events that are organized in the Helsinki area.

What we offer

  • A chance to be part of the core of the Finnish startup ecosystem
  • Hands-on experience in event organization and office operations
  • You’ll join a warm, supportive, and welcoming team. We’re based at Maria 01 (Lapinlahdenkatu 16, 00180 Helsinki) and typically work from the office 2–3 days a week.
  • Monthly compensation of 1,800 €

Interested?

Send us your application and CV to maija@startupyhteiso.com before 7 September.
The internship will start as soon as possible, with flexibility.

We’d love to hear from you!
