Salary Unpaid
Equity To be negotiated

Our team currently has two members: Peter Vesterbacka (Brand ambassador) and Bambi Dang (CEO). Our mission is to bring international talents from all over the world to do internships and work at startups and companies in the FinestBay Area (the heart of Nordics and Baltics). We want to encourage entrepreneurship among young people by having them intern at startups. We also want to encourage diversity in the workplace by having international talents working at local companies in the area.


We are a young company in recruitment business (not an ordinary one) located in Helsinki, Finland. Our team currently has two members: Peter Vesterbacka (Brand ambassador) and Bambi Dang (CEO).


We are looking for a co-founder to join our awesome team at this early stage, starting date as soon as possible. The skills we are lacking in our team are recruitment expertise. We don't require much from you, but at the same time, expect a lot from you.


What we mean by we don't require much:

You don't need to have an extensive history in recruitment. We hope that you have some experience, especially in international recruitment.


What we mean by we expect a lot from you:

You eat failure for breakfast. You refuse to quit. You love finding a solution every time you see a problem. You have an entrepreneurial mindset. You have a growth mindset. You have an infinite mindset. You don't want to settle for mediocrity. You are a person who leads by example. You are a leader in everyday life (there are differences between a leader and a manager) and your mission is to make an impact and empower other people to become better.


Here are your responsibilities:

We need you to perform the magic of finding talents, qualifying them, providing feedback and responses to the candidates, matching them with the right company. Basically you will be responsible for the Talent side, making sure we have great candidates, taking a good care of hiring process and candidate experience. You will also be responsible for finding the next team members to join us, making sure that whoever comes after you is a great asset for our company. You will also be in charge of Recruitment of an international team across countries in the future, as long as you can prove you have what it takes to become such a great leader.


Here are what you will get from joining us:

You will be the core team member and have the equal impact on our business. You will get to work with Peter Vesterbacka, the former Mighty Eagle behind Angry Birds, the co-founder of Slush, the brain behind the Tallinn tunnel connecting Finland and Estonia, and many more other cool and impactful projects. You will also get to work with Bambi Dang, a purpose-driven young professional, a motivational speaker and a life conqueror who never stops challenging herself and people around her to become better. We are both ambitious. We think big and we want the size of your thinking also to become big. And definitely you will become big when you work with us. Come build with us from Day 1!


Here are what make us different:

This FinestNinja recruitment business might sound ordinary, but trust us, it's not. It’s part of something big (check out the FinestBay Area, the Tallinn-Espoo tunnel, and the artificial island project https://youtu.be/zjOj8pb7EzE which will directly and indirectly create about 20,000 jobs in the area, hence our business name also has the “Finest” part, since the tunnel project company is named “FinestBay Area”). Our mission is to create talent density and generate gravity to make it Not-the-Silicon-Valley but a better Bay Area. We are making a big impact on the talent community and the society as a whole. In addition to Recruitment, we are also working on offering a very sweet package of Study and Work together with our partners, so good stuff!
