HR Coordinator

About me

As an HR coordinator, I am responsible for part of our trainee programme as well as for student marketing. Employer branding and recruitment marketing are key areas in my job. I am responsible for recruiting junior trainees, knowledge management trainees, legal tech trainees and trainee assistants as well as for many tasks relating to the trainee employment cycle. As the supervisor of our firm’s junior trainees, I seek to ensure that they have the best environment to work and develop. With respect to student marketing, I work with our student organisation liaisons to plan forms of cooperation, coordinate events and develop our firm’s student marketing efforts.

As an outgoing and social person, I get a lot of energy from interacting and working with different kinds of people. I am happy to be able to tap into this passion every day in my recruiting, student marketing and supervisor work. I also enjoy continually developing things and finding solutions in my work.

I found my way into the legal services industry by chance in 2011 while I was finishing my BBA studies. After working as an assistant in a law firm for a few years, my desire to become an HR expert and learn more about the interaction of people and organisations took me to the Faculty of Educational Sciences at University of Helsinki to study alongside my work as an assistant. My current position allows me to combine my work experience in a field I enjoy with the insights on learning, leadership and interaction I have gained through my studies in educational sciences and leadership. It’s fair to say that I am in my dream job!
