Hannes Snellman Attorneys Ltd

Hannes Snellman is a law firm with 300 outstanding professionals based in Finland.

We are currently looking for a sustainability & ESG legal trainee to join our team in autumn 2024.

As a sustainability & ESG trainee, your job will be to assist our lawyers and other professionals in developing our Sustainability & ESG Practice. The tasks will vary but might include, for example, conducting legal and market research and analysis and ESG landscape follow-up, creating databases, co-organising ESG-related training, assisting in building queries and searches, and drafting memos and other written materials.

The exact duration of your employment and working hours will be agreed on separately. However, the ideal duration of the traineeship is six months working approximately three days a week, and ideally, you would be able to start in October/November 2024 (but we are flexible about this).

“The rapidly expanding sustainability and ESG legal landscape is a game-changer for how companies conduct business. At Hannes, we are inspired by the opportunity to guide our clients through the new ESG norms, ensuring their business practices are resilient and respectful of both people and the planet. Our cross-practice ESG team of dedicated experts also makes this great fun and a constant learning experience!”– Riikka Kuha, Counsel

Skills and Requirements

As this is a trainee position, we do not expect you to know everything, but to ensure that you will be able to succeed in your duties, we are looking for someone who:

– has at least 180 study credits before starting
– has a genuine and high interest in sustainability & ESG matters
– is fluent in Finnish and English (Swedish and other languages will be considered a bonus)
– has attention to detail but is also able to see the bigger picture
– has the ability to take initiative
– has good interpersonal skills

Most of all, we value a positive attitude and willingness to learn.

Hannes Snellman x Nordea

We also have a very special traineeship available, as our sustainability & ESG legal trainee will get to continue their traineeship in Nordea’s ESG Legal function for one to two months following their traineeship with us. The internship at Nordea will offer an excellent opportunity to see what it is like to work as an in-house lawyer in the biggest bank of the Nordic countries.

What Is in It For You?

At Hannes Snellman, we cherish a sense of community, and we will do our best to make you feel part of the team from day one. On your first day, you will be assigned a tutor who will support you throughout your traineeship, and before diving into your duties, you will participate in a comprehensive orientation. Our trainees also have the chance to get together in a more informal setting when we organise traditional trainee evenings or other fun events. As we are determined to maximise your learning experience as a trainee, you will receive regular feedback and have the opportunity to attend our Hannes Academy lectures and mentoring breakfasts on a variety of topics. We also offer you good benefits (lunch and recreation benefit, and a ticket for public transport) and a competitive salary.

Join Us

If this sounds like your cup of tea, please submit your application, CV, matriculation examination diploma, and an up-to-date transcript of your studies by 1 September 2024 at the latest. Remember to write your application and CV in English.
