Are you a recent university/university of applied sciences graduate or in the late phase of your studies? If you are interested in impact investing and developing economies, a traineeship at Finnfund might be something for you!

We offer paid traineeships where you become a part of a team, working with experienced professionals. Our traineeships are usually from 3 to 8 months and can be part-time or full time.

Our trainees have access to extensive health care services and a lunch benefit. All trainees participate in our onboarding programme. Our working model is hybrid which means that you will work in our office in Ruoholahti, Helsinki with a possibility to combine it with working from a home office.

"My traineeship was with Finnfund's Development Impact team and it was great to see the impact of the investments from a front row seat. In my role, I also got to work across the other teams in the organisation. I think anyone who is interested in development finance and wants to work in a multicultural setting should apply. I wanted to experience Finnish work culture, but Finnfund providing an international context and an English-speaking workplace made it easier. The atmosphere at Finnfund is very accommodating. We celebrated Vappu together in May and I went climbing and played football with my colleagues!"
