Our team values adaptability, curiosity, and a can-do attitude – so we're looking for someone eager to explore new topics, e.g. banking, finance and insurance subjects, and confidently engage with current and potential clients and experts. While you take ownership of your projects, you won’t be working alone; teamwork and collaboration are central to how we operate, and we support each other to drive projects forward.

Our ideal candidate has a strong commercial mindset, understands continuous learning and workforce development needs, and recognizes what kind of training solutions organizations are willing to invest in. You actively support and contribute to sales and marketing by providing relevant product insights and a deep understanding of target audiences, meeting clients and ensuring our training programs align with market demand and learner expectations.

• Relevant higher education degree
• Experience in project management, including handling multiple projects simultaneously
• Strong organizational, teamwork and time management skills, combined with a business-oriented mindset
• Confidence in working with both corporate and academic stakeholders across various industries
• Ability and curiosity to quickly learn new topics, including banking and finance, insurance, investment, accounting, risk management and/or compliance subjects
• Excellent communication skills in Finnish and English; Swedish is an advantage

Additional valuable skills:

• Experience working in international or multicultural environments
• Experience working in the financial services sector is seen as an advantage
• Understanding of digital learning environments and scalable learning solutions

What Aalto EE offers you:

• Diverse and meaningful responsibilities in a company owned by Aalto University
• Comprehensive introduction to the new role and supportive team environment - we do not expect you to master everything, but your enthusiastic attitude and desire to develop into an expert in project management and education are crucial
• An inspiring work environment and colleagues who passionately approach their work, supporting your success in your role and enjoying free time together
• A flexible hybrid working model and working hours, along with a fixed monthly depending on your background and experience
