Do you want to join Terveystalo’s team and play a key role in ensuring the future of responsible supply chains? We are now looking for an experienced ESG Manager to take responsibility for developing the company’s responsible procurement processes and ensuring compliance with agreed practices—could you be the expert we are looking for?

This is a new role within the organization, and you will strengthen the small Investor Relations and Sustainability team. From the perspective of supply chains and supplier collaboration, you will also work closely with Terveystalo’s procurement team. As an ESG Manager, you will analyze the current state of operations, bring your expertise to process development, and play an active role in developing better tools for measuring results. In addition to the sustainability of environmental factors in supply chains, your work will particularly focus on themes related to human rights and social responsibility.

The role of ESG Manager is developmental and project-based, so we expect you to have an analytical approach and the ability to grasp complex situations. In addition to the above, you will participate in sustainability and responsibility reporting with your team and support the procurement team in implementing supplier audits, so flexibility towards different tasks is also expected. Previous experience in similar roles is definitely an advantage, as is independent decision-making, strong collaboration skills, and a desire to develop and grow in your area of responsibility.

More specifically, we expect you to have:

• Previous experience in a similar expert role and an understanding of responsible supply chains and social responsibility
• Strong organizational and project management skills, as well as an analytical approach to development work
• A positive, proactive, and development-oriented working attitude
• Excellent interpersonal skills—you enjoy teamwork and involving various stakeholders in projects and development work
• Strong Excel and MS Office skills, as well as technical aptitude for mastering new systems
• Good command of Finnish and English
• Experience in conducting supplier audits and/or developing other metrics is an advantage

Terveystalo offers you:

• Meaningful work in a meaningful industry—in this role, you will genuinely strengthen sustainable business practices and contribute to the realization of Terveystalo’s responsible procurement and value chains
• A humane workplace where you have space for the most important things in life alongside work. We support the balance between work and free time with flexible working arrangements and remote work opportunities. Not just because it’s proven effective, but because it’s humane.
• An organizational culture that recognizes responsibility and sustainability as central to our strategy
• A bold, ambitious, and humane team with a shared mission
• A wide range of employee benefits, such as lunch and recreational benefits, partner discounts, and comprehensive occupational healthcare that includes not only basic services but also referrals to specialists and short-term psychotherapy

Practical Details:

In this permanent and full-time position, you will be directly employed by our client, Terveystalo. We hope you can start as soon as possible, but the exact start date will be agreed upon with the selected candidate. At Terveystalo, we work in a hybrid model, and we expect you to be ready to work at the Helsinki headquarters 2-3 days a week. The fixed monthly salary for the position will be negotiated based on the candidate’s experience and expertise.
