Your responsibilities, daily work and journey: 

In this position you will be responsible for providing DEI consulting and training to clients and managing customer accounts – you can read more about our past projects here. We want you to be the kind of person who is committed to take deidei forward as a company together with the team.

In your daily work, you will meet with our clients to uncover their organizational DEI needs and challenges. You will use your DEI and consulting skills to assess their situation, discover the right solutions and then turn that into action. You will support our clients on their DEI transformation and development journeys.

In six months, you will be leading customer accounts, and actively participating in developing our client relations.  

In one to two years, if you have demonstrated a commitment to bring deidei forward as a company together with the team, you may choose to get involved in leading deidei as our Partner.

What we can offer

• ​A small, passionate and diverse team that is committed to be a psychologically safe workplace for all  

• Long paid holidays + 2x inclusive days off: whether you celebrate for example Pride, Labor day, Eid, Pesach or your birthday – you can self-determine which 2 days you want to take off in a year

• A laptop, extensive healthcare, flexible working hours, chance to work in a hybrid setting with office space in central Helsinki and regular developing opportunities in our own AcaDEImy

• The salary range for this role is 2,700-3,300€ per month depending on the level of experience and we also offer a possibility for equity and an opportunity to become a Partner in 1-2 years. The salary will be reviewed after the trial period (6months). We are transparent about everyone's salaries internally in our company, and we understand this is not the highest starting point for a consultant. We are self-funded, and we are only 14 months old. However, we are fully committed to raise every team member's salaries as soon as we get more solidly established. We review our situation every half a year.
