Best job websites in Finland (2026): which site to use for which job

Short answer

No single Finnish job board covers every sector. Use Duunitori or Jobly for Finnish-language and blue-collar roles, Työmarkkinatori for public sector, LinkedIn for tech and management, and Work in Finland if you need listings in English only. JobCrawls combines these sources with company career pages and lets you filter by sector, language and remote (for example, open remote jobs).

Which job site is right for you?

Match the row to your situation. Each answer names one primary site and, where useful, a second one to cross-check.

  • I want a Finnish-language job in trades, logistics, retail or care
    Best for
    Duunitori · Jobly

    Duunitori or Jobly. Both take direct employer postings and collect listings from public sources; most listings are in Finnish.

    Also: JobCrawls, filtered by Construction & trades or Healthcare.

  • I work in software, data, product or design
    Best for
    LinkedIn · JobCrawls

    LinkedIn for recruiter activity, JobCrawls for coverage. Technology and software engineering are the two largest named sectors in our index.

    Also: company career pages directly. Many tech employers post there first.

  • I want a public sector, municipal or state job
    Best for
    Työmarkkinatori

    Työmarkkinatori. Employers are required to post many vacancies here, and in many work-permit cases before hiring outside the EU. Its feed is republished by Duunitori, Laura.fi, JobCrawls and several other Finnish boards, so you will also see these jobs elsewhere.

    Also: Kuntarekry for municipal roles.

  • I don't speak Finnish and need everything in English
    Best for
    Work in Finland

    Work in Finland, run by Business Finland with every listing in English. Pair it with LinkedIn or JobCrawls filtered to English-language roles, since its own pool is small.

    In our index more listings require English than Finnish; many require both.

  • I'm relocating from another EU country
    Best for
    EURES

    EURES for the official cross-border route. Since mid-2025 every Työmarkkinatori listing is published to EURES automatically, so it mirrors Finland's public listings; switch to a Finnish board once you know your sector.

  • I want to search once instead of five times
    Best for
    JobCrawls

    JobCrawls. It crawls company career pages and Työmarkkinatori into one search in Finnish, English and Swedish.

Strong = a primary source for this sector. Some = present but not a reason to choose the site. Weak = little or none. JobCrawls counts are measured; other platforms are our editorial assessment as of September 2026.

03

Good to know about the Finnish job-site landscape

Four things that explain why the boards look the way they do, and where the jobs actually live.

  • 01

    Most jobs never reach a board

    A large share of Finnish jobs are only ever posted on the employer's own career page and never reach Työmarkkinatori or a board. That is why aggregators exist and why "which board" is only half the answer. Read the hidden job market analysis.

  • 02

    Career pages are usually an ATS

    Most Finnish employers run their careers page on a recruiting system such as Teamtailor, Recruitee, Workable or Personio, and the job goes live there first. If you know which companies you want, follow their career pages directly or use a site that crawls them.

  • 03

    Työmarkkinatori feeds everyone

    Työmarkkinatori publishes an open feed, so Duunitori, Laura.fi, JobCrawls and several other Finnish boards republish its listings. Seeing the same public-sector job on four sites is normal. Since mid-2025 the feed also goes to EURES.

  • 04

    Summer jobs are hired in January to March

    Finland's kesätyö season is early: most summer positions are posted between January and March and many close by April. See the summer jobs guide for timing and where to look.

04

The platforms, one by one

Each entry lists what the site is, who runs it, what languages it works in and what it covers.

JobCrawlsThis site

Aggregator · crawls company career pages and Työmarkkinatori

JobCrawls collects listings by crawling employers' own career pages and the public Työmarkkinatori feed, then deduplicates them into one search. The point is coverage: jobs that are only on a company site show up next to jobs from the boards. Every listing is classified by sector, required languages, remote status and role level so you can filter rather than read.

Duunitori

Aggregator and direct board · Finnish-first

Employers post on Duunitori for free and pay only to promote a listing, and Duunitori also collects listings automatically from public sources such as Työmarkkinatori. It calls itself Finland's most-visited recruitment site, and it is strongest for Finnish-language roles in trades, logistics, retail and care. The English interface is partial and most listings are in Finnish.

Jobly is the former Monster.fi, owned by Alma Media since 2021 and renamed in 2022. Employers post for free and pay to promote, as on Duunitori. The interface is mobile-first, and it is built for Finnish speakers.

Työmarkkinatori

Government portal · Job Market Finland

The official national job portal. Employers must post certain vacancies here, which makes it the most complete source for public sector, municipal and regulated roles. It also publishes an open feed, so Duunitori, Laura.fi, JobCrawls and several other Finnish boards republish its listings. Search and filtering are slow and there is no salary data, so most people read its jobs through another site and use it directly only for the official record.

LinkedIn

Global network · direct postings

Where most white-collar and tech hiring in Finland is visible and where recruiters search directly. A complete profile matters as much as applying. Weak for blue-collar and public sector roles. In our experience its matching leans on your previous titles, so it is hard to find roles outside your existing track.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best job site in Finland?

The best job site in Finland depends on your needs. JobCrawls crawls thousands of company career pages and Työmarkkinatori directly and combines them in one search with salary benchmarking data and support for Finnish, English, and Swedish. Duunitori is a long-running platform for traditional Finnish-language roles. LinkedIn is a common choice for white-collar and tech positions. Työmarkkinatori is the official government portal, mandatory for many public sector postings.

What are the best job sites in Finland for English speakers?

The best job sites in Finland for English speakers are: JobCrawls (fully available in English with an English-language job filter), Work in Finland (the official platform for international talent run by Business Finland), and LinkedIn (global platform with many English-language Finnish employers). Indeed has a Finnish site but thin local coverage and no Finland-specific features, so we don't recommend it as a primary channel. Duunitori and Jobly have some English support but are primarily Finnish-language platforms.

What are the best job sites in Finland for expats?

For expats moving to or living in Finland, the most useful platforms are: Work in Finland (workinfinland.com) for English-language roles curated for international applicants, JobCrawls for aggregated search across all Finnish sources with English-language filtering, EURES for EU-wide listings with a Finland filter, and LinkedIn for networking and white-collar positions.

Is Oikotie still a job site in Finland?

No. Oikotie Jobs shut down in February 2025 when its owner, Schibsted Marketplaces, discontinued the jobs section of the platform. Many articles about Finnish job boards still list Oikotie, but this information is now out of date. Job seekers who previously used Oikotie should switch to Duunitori, Jobly, or JobCrawls as alternatives.

Did Monster.fi shut down?

No. Monster.fi did not close. Alma Media bought Monster's Finnish business in 2021 and renamed the service Jobly in 2022. The same job board continues at jobly.fi. Before 2004 the service was called Jobline.fi.

Is Duunitori a job aggregator?

Partly. Duunitori takes free postings from employers, who pay only to promote them, and also collects listings automatically from public sources such as Työmarkkinatori. Jobly also lets employers post for free and pay to promote. JobCrawls is an aggregator first: it crawls company career pages and Työmarkkinatori rather than hosting employer postings.

How does JobCrawls differ from Duunitori?

Both collect listings from public sources such as Työmarkkinatori. The difference is scope and language. JobCrawls also crawls thousands of company career pages directly, deduplicates everything into one search, classifies each listing by sector, required language and remote status, and runs in Finnish, English and Swedish. Duunitori combines free employer postings (with paid promotion) and aggregated public listings, calls itself Finland's most-visited recruitment site, and is primarily in Finnish. Duunitori does not show salary on individual listings but has a separate salary comparison tool (Palkkavertailu).

Which Finnish job site has the best salary information?

JobCrawls uses market data to show salary benchmarks by field, city, and experience level. Indeed and LinkedIn show salary ranges on some individual listings. Duunitori has a separate salary comparison tool (Palkkavertailu) but doesn't show pay on individual listings. Jobly and Työmarkkinatori don't display salary information at all.

Is Työmarkkinatori free to use?

Yes, Työmarkkinatori (Job Market Finland) is completely free for both job seekers and employers. It is Finland's official government employment portal, run by the state under the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment since the TE offices closed in January 2025. In many work-permit cases employers must post the vacancy there before recruiting from outside the EU, making it a comprehensive source for public sector and regulated positions.

What is the best job site for tech jobs in Finland?

For tech jobs in Finland, LinkedIn and JobCrawls are the strongest options. LinkedIn is where most Finnish tech companies and international employers post software, data, and engineering roles. JobCrawls aggregates tech listings from company career pages and Työmarkkinatori and allows filtering by English language requirements. Indeed has thin Finnish coverage and is not a primary channel here.

What is the best job site for healthcare jobs in Finland?

For healthcare jobs in Finland, Duunitori and Työmarkkinatori tend to carry a large volume of nursing, medical, and social care listings. Many healthcare employers in Finland post directly to Duunitori. Työmarkkinatori includes public sector healthcare roles. Note that most healthcare positions in Finland require Finnish language skills.

Can I find jobs in Finland without speaking Finnish?

Yes, but options are more limited. English-only roles are most common in technology, software development, gaming, international sales, and academic research. The best platforms are JobCrawls (with its English-language filter), Work in Finland, and LinkedIn. Public sector, healthcare, and most service industry roles typically require Finnish.

Should I use Indeed or LinkedIn for jobs in Finland?

LinkedIn. Indeed has a Finnish site, but its Finnish coverage is thin and it has no Finland-specific context such as collective agreements or local salary data, so we don't recommend it as a primary channel. LinkedIn is strong for white-collar, tech and management roles and for direct contact with Finnish recruiters. In our experience its weak spot is that its matching leans heavily on your previous titles, which makes it hard to find roles outside your existing track. For local Finnish employers and career changes, pair LinkedIn with a Finnish board or with JobCrawls, which aggregates company career pages and Työmarkkinatori.

What is Work in Finland (workinfinland.com)?

Work in Finland is an official platform run by Business Finland, designed specifically for international talent seeking jobs in Finland. All job listings are in English. It is part of the Finnish government's Talent Boost programme and also provides guides on residence permits, relocation, and working life in Finland.

What is EURES and can I use it to find jobs in Finland?

EURES (European Employment Services) is an EU-wide job portal that allows you to filter listings by destination country, including Finland. It is most useful for EU and EEA citizens. For Finland specifically, it lists roles that Finnish employers have registered with the public employment service. It has fewer listings than Finnish-specific platforms but is a valuable supplementary tool for cross-border job seekers.

Is JobCrawls a good Jobly alternative?

Yes. Jobly is Alma Media's job board (formerly Monster.fi) and is strongest for Finnish-language and blue-collar roles. If you want a single search that also covers company career pages, Työmarkkinatori, English-language roles and remote work, JobCrawls is the closest Jobly alternative: it aggregates the same public listings plus thousands of company career pages, and adds salary benchmarks that Jobly doesn't show.

Ready to find your next job?

JobCrawls aggregates jobs from Työmarkkinatori and thousands of company career pages. Search once, find everything.
