Project managers, account managers and production managers are responsible for keeping our projects going and making them a success for everyone involved. Duties include project planning, resourcing and oversight. They make sure the project gets done on time, on budget and to the satisfaction of the customer and other partners.

A Project Manager needs to be customer- and sales-oriented, detail-minded and a leader with a pro-active attitude. A Project Manager has the talent to both inspire and demand high-quality work from their team. A Project Manager is the point person between the customer and the creative team, so excellent communication skills and fluent Finnish and English are a must. In many cases, a Project Manager will begin his or her career as a Project Coordinator, moving on to the bigger challenge of project management after a few years experience with digital projects.  Project Managers at Activeark are of two types, with a background in either technology or marketing.

Our business developers and marketers have the job of attracting new customers and developing new possibilities within existing markets. They sell Activeark’s solutions and most of their daily work involves being in contact with customers. They must have a very good understanding both of the customer’s needs and of the digital solutions for meeting those needs.

Business developers and marketers should have a proven track record selling digital, marketing or technological solutions. They should have excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Good candidates will be active, result-oriented and with a high tolerance for stress. Having a large business network and many contacts is also important.

Design means creative thinking and the attentive development of an idea from inspiration through production to delivery. A good designer knows their audience, and is skilled at translating a customer’s brief into an original, produceable solution. Designers are responsible for the content, the look and the interactivity of digital solutions, and fall into a number of different categories: concept, copywriting, visual design, service design, motion and UI.

Our designers work primarily to fulfill the marketing and sales needs of our customers. They create engaging stories and experiences for end-users. Many of our designers began their careers at Activeark as interns, working on a freelance basis during their studies and then joining as junior designers after graduation.

We are looking to expand our freelance network with a broad range of talents, especially design and web technology professionals. If you are interested in working with us as a freelancer or contractor, please contact us by filling in an application.  (Designers, please include your portfolio).

As we see it, true creativity is a marriage of design and technology. Our technical designers and developers are responsible for making solutions work. They are highly trained specialists in one or a number of technologies and programming systems, with a thorough understanding of the possibilities and limitations and able to translate creative concepts into complex and smoothly functioning web-based architectures.

Web developers will be experts with a particular specialty, e.g. Flash, Flex, Drupal, front-end or back-end. They should also have excellent knowledge and some experience with web-based technologies outside their area of expertise. Developers produce web solutions using modern standards-based techniques and best practices.

Technical developers must have several years experience building complex, web-based architectures. Many web developers begin their careers at Activeark as interns, working as freelancers during their studies and then joining the team as junior developers after graduation.

Clear-minded, collaborative and culturally rich, our culture is an expression of our core values. We believe in team-work, high achievement and having fun.  We cultivate a relaxed environment supportive of creative thinking, concentration and lively group processes. The organizational structure here is very flat, because we believe everyone has something important to contribute, and that communication and sharing are vital resources that keep us producing at our fullest potential. When hiring new people, we look for personal qualities that will mesh with and enhance our company culture.

Our people are our principal asset, a wealth of skills in sales, marketing, design, technology and administration. But in the end, it’s all about knowing that we’re doing things right and creating something remarkable.

Working at Activeark can put you ahead on one of several exciting career paths. Whether you see yourself as the multi-tasking detail hound just right for Project Management, the thinker and planner we want in Business Development & Marketing, the artist with an eye for smart Design, or the know-how Tech hack who can build it and make it work, you’ll be encouraged, challenged and inspired to take your abilities to a new level working at Activeark.
