Our team works together to build a competitive international business environment in Finland and create opportunities for nearly 200 member companies.

As Policy and Government Affairs Coordinator, you will support and help deliver Amcham Finland’s policy agenda, stakeholder engagement, and communications. Working closely with the CEO and the wider team, you will help strengthen Amcham’s position as The Voice of International Business while providing timely transatlantic insights to our members.

Your primary responsibilities will include:

• Supporting Amcham’s public policy and advocacy work by monitoring legislative and regulatory developments affecting Finland’s international business environment.
• Coordinating Amcham’s policy working groups by preparing meeting materials, conducting research, identifying emerging challenges, and drafting policy papers and other advocacy documents.

You are comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously, work well independently, and enjoy collaborating with others. You are equally happy writing policy content as you are building relationships with stakeholders. You thrive in a fast-moving environment where initiative, adaptability, and teamwork are highly valued.

You have:

• A university degree in political science, economics, law, international relations, communications, or another relevant field.
