We are always looking for people who are passionate about their work, open to learning and creating something new, and thrive in our international work community. In return, we offer you opportunities to develop, grow, and further your career.

Future talents

Starting your career or taking a new direction and looking for a place to develop your skills? We can offer an inspiring kickstart for future professionals at Neste. As a responsible employer, we recognize the importance of developing and supporting new career entrants’ growth to acquire the skills they will need for the future.

We value fresh insights and ideas and therefore offer summer jobs, internships and other entry-level job opportunities to future stars still studying, recently graduated or embarking on a new career. After all, different types of early-career professionals with their skills and thoughts are an important part of our transformation journey, and a unique opportunity to understand how the future talents see working life.

Our challenging goal to create a healthier planet provides a meaningful work environment for you to utilize the skills you have acquired during your studies and learn more.

We are developing ways to engage fresh talents in different locations and junior positions. Some business areas have their own internship programs and may offer thesis opportunities. The best way to find these is to follow our job openings and contact people you may know from the organization you are interested in.

Summer trainees at Neste

Summer trainees are an established part of our company culture in Finland. Every year, we offer numerous opportunities for new career starters in the form of summer jobs e.g. in our operations such as refinery and terminals, and Espoo headquarters. Every now and then there are also some individual internship positions open in other Neste locations worldwide.

Trainees get the opportunity to learn and grow, suggest and create new ideas, gain valuable experience in an international environment for the ongoing studies and future work life, and build a network with other trainees and colleagues. For you, it is a way to develop and find areas of interest, and for us, an important channel in finding future talents and learning from them. 

The application period for summer jobs is in January-February. Read more about it here.

We care for generations to come and for those of today. We are a community for you to grow with and let your courage and curiosity flow. Together, we can create change!
