Job description

Our client is looking for a hands-on leader to take ownership of our Finnish business — someone ready to shape the vision, drive expansion, and build a high-performing team from the ground up.

This is a long-term leadership role for someone who enjoys combining strategy with execution — building structure and leading by example in the early stages, then scaling the business toward a regional success story.

About the company:

They are a pioneer in roof and facade maintenance and for over 10 years, they have been taking care of roofs with exceptional efficiency and uncompromising quality. They specialize in the maintenance of mineral, brick, and sheet-metal roofs, and offer full-service support — from initial inspections to ongoing post-project care. Backed by 17 years of expertise in the industry, they consistently deliver the highest standards, always putting the customer first.

What you’ll do:

• Lead and develop the Finnish operation — strategy, growth, and team building
• Drive business development in the first phase, including key client acquisition and partnership growth
• Create the foundation for a scalable organization and a strong company culture
• Act as the main link between the Finnish market and leadership

What they are looking for:

• Proven experience in business development, leadership and sales
• Vision-driven and entrepreneurial mindset — not just a salesperson, but a builder
• Strong leadership and communication skills
• Fluency in Finnish and English
• A long-term growth mindset — ready to commit, lead, and evolve into a senior or board-level role

What they offer:

• A chance to build and lead something meaningful from day one
• Full trust and autonomy with the support of an international group
• Competitive compensation and performance-based rewards
• A culture that values ownership, initiative, and long-term partnership
