FinnHarvest began in 1969, when Sulo Piironen started a small forestry contracting business in Eastern Finland, built on a quiet conviction: that a well-cared-for forest gives back. Three generations later, that same conviction still guides every decision we make.
Honesty. Caring. The long view. These aren’t slogans — they’re how we hire, how we operate, and how we leave the land behind.
Operators, mechanics, foresters, engineers, ecologists. If you care about the long game and like working outdoors, send us a message.
We hire people who respect the land, the machine, and the team beside them. Operators, mechanics, foresters, engineers — if you like working outdoors and thinking long-term, we want to hear from you.
