Experience

Finavia

• Finland
• Airlines and Aviation
• 300 - 400 Employee

• Head of IT Infrastructure, EUS & SMO

  • Jan 2021 - Present

  After organizational reform, I got to lead company IT SMO function, besides my earlier responsibilities. We also carried out a large service procurement, which means that we are increasingly using the expertise of our partners in operational IT tasks.

• ICT Manager

  • Apr 2018 - Jan 2021

  I was responsible for our infra and EUS services and strongly involved with IT service management. At most, there were 4 teams in my unit, providing not only modern and reliable infrastructure that critical airport systems require, but also appropriate tools and support for the business units and other administrative units, not forgetting the end users!



Lassila & Tikanoja

• Finland
• Environmental Services
• 700 & Above Employee

• Manager, ICT

  • Nov 2014 - Apr 2018

  I was responsible for the ICT infrastructure services, including devices, networks, capacity and all the infra solutions. I had a great 6-person team of architects and specialists but also vendor management played a significant role in my position. This was my first position as a supervisor (team lead) so I was able to develop myself in a totally new way! This was also the end of my era in an awesome company that is creating value by making the CIRCULAR ECONOMY a reality.

• ICT Service Manager

  • Sep 2011 - Oct 2014

  Service and vendor management of basic ICT services were my main responsibilities. I also did some IT specialist tasks and occasionally worked as a project manager. This was an extremely instructive experience in managing IT services compared to delivering them by self.

• Systems Specialist

  • Jan 2010 - Aug 2011

  This was the hands-on time with our on-premise infra and capacity services, before outsourcing them. After worked for a long time in a smaller company, at this task I really learned a lot about the IT infrastructure and services of a large concern. I find this as a basis of my career's following positions.



L&T Biowatti Oy

• Finland

• Systems Specialist

  • Jan 2005 - Dec 2009

  The start of my IT career. In short: After the company had diverged from a big concern, we built totally own ICT systems for a privately owned and innovative environmental company and finally merged again to a big group. I got to deal with all sorts of IT issues of the company, from end user support to building basic ICT infrastructure and creating custom made ERP applications. I learned a lot and still thinking this era with extra warm thoughts. The start of my IT career.
