There’s no denying that remote work in Finland is on the rise. What’s more, there’s plenty of data that shows the positives of remote work far outweigh the negatives. It affects people positively in many ways – productivity, happiness and your team is less likely to leave if you give them some freedom.
With all this in mind, we’ve compiled a list of the hottest companies who get the benefits of remote work in Finland.

Furthermore, they are used by big brands like IBM, hp, Vodafone, Tesco’s and many more.
Operating since 2013 they have a small but focused team. As the team is already distributed between Helsinki and Yerevan, remote work is something they already practice.

Quentic is one of the leading solution providers for software as a service (SaaS) in the European EHS and CSR market. The company is headquartered in Berlin and employs more than 200 people.

Pixels build user-centric Websites and Web Applications for organisations that want to push their boundaries. They are tired of poorly built websites and create customer-centric WordPress websites, WooCommerce online stores and intuitive Web Applications for their clients.

Priceff is a 2016 founded Finnish Pricing-as-a-Service growth company with 100% team ownership. They help companies optimise their business by increasing capital turnover rate through pricing. Sounds boring? Doesn’t really matter how it sounds. These guys help you make sure your bottom line is in the black.
They are based in Helsinki and do offer a remote work policy, but not outside of Finland at the moment due to the team size.
Norr3
Norr3 is a digital agency. They do growth as a service – working with digital marketing and sales from a business perspective. With an approach based on end-to-end strategic services, in which media plans and channel tactics are tactical outcomes, not strategies. That was a lengthy sentence wasn’t it? But if growth is what you need, these are the guys to seek.
They have a remote work policy in place and believe this is a must for any company. Whether you want full time remote work or only during holiday periods, they can figure it out.
Supervise
Supervise helps organisations take the first steps in power use of data while weeding out boring tasks at the same time. The company’s mission is to remove the need to use Excel completely. And oh boy if I could remove excel from my life, I totally would!
They’ve been operating since 2017. Small team and an office in Helsinki. They offer remote work as well. If you too want to send excel to the bin, have a look perhaps you’re exactly what Supervise needs.

The core of the innovation is in automating the 3D modelling according to client rules, with consistent high quality output. They focus on the orthotics and prosthetics industry. And the products look fabulous. It’s not magic as they say, clever tech and design rather.

VALA Group Ltd is an international software engineering company with a vision of being the happiest company in Finland by 2020. They are specialised in software automation and quality assurance.

The company was created by an ambitious team working in event management and software development in Finland. Seems like chats are the way forward nowadays, we at MeetFrank salute them, of course 😉

Meeshkan is an award-winning Machine Learning and Developers Tools company based in Helsinki Finland, with clients from all over the world. They value curiosity, developer-led business initiatives, and healthy work/life balance.

Aiven provide open source databases as a service (DBaaS) – services that are usable, reliable, relevant, and secure at competitive price points. Focusing on fully-hosted and managed cloud database and messaging products on all major cloud providers across the globe.
They are not that into fully remote options but working few days outside of the office or few weeks when travelling is already a common practice in the company. They have offices in Helsinki and Boston, offer some great perks for team as well as stock options.
Factory Harmonizer
Factory Harmonizer quite frankly does what it says on the box – helps process operators and engineers to run their production more efficiently and with less breaks. In their work creating data-driven analytics engines, they want humans and computers to augment each other.
They are working from a cozy office at the centre of Helsinki but also have options to work remotely.
Remote Work in Finland
If you’re interested in full time remote work in Finland, these companies are happy to give their team the flexibility they need. I am a strong believer of working remotely myself. It can really help you smash out tasks that need lazer focus and also you save a lot of time commuting. There are plenty of tools to get connected to your team and make sure you’re all on the same page. All you need is a laptop and an internet connection.
As summer seems brief after the 120 days of winter in this Nordic gem, remote work in Finland is celebrated especially in the season. Imagine sitting by one the serene lakes of Finland and finishing your work in record time whilst listening to birdsong. This surely beats the hassle of traffic jams and public transport on a hot summer day.
Of course there are roles where it may not work as well. Some roles still require attending meetings in person and there are also benefits to that. Thanks to technology in the connected world we live in today, all this can be done over video calls. This is why remote work in Finland is adopted by more and more companies.
