Katrium’s Global and Flexible Work Culture
Katrium works with clients from around the world in a multicultural setting. Everyone works remotely, which means you can work from anywhere. This gives interns a great chance to build skills for today’s international job market.
We value a flexible and multicultural workplace. Trust is key in everything we do. We don’t micromanage. Instead, we focus on open communication and respect different ways of speaking. Our culture is built on kindness, initiative, and learning every day. Interns are treated as real team members. We want you to feel seen and supported.
We love trying new things and are always open to change. Everyone is free to share ideas or offer new ways of working. If something doesn’t work out, it’s not a failure. It’s a chance to learn. Since our projects are short and always changing, you’ll gain real-world experience in staying flexible and handling pressure. Even your smallest ideas can shape how we work. Here, you don’t need to be perfect—you just need the courage to learn and grow.
Opportunities and Demands of Remote Work
Working remotely gives you a lot of freedom. It’s easier to balance work and personal life. You can set your own schedule and work from different time zones. This helps you build better time management habits.
But remote work also takes effort. You’ll need to stay motivated, plan your tasks, and know how to focus. Since much of our chatting is written, it’s important to be clear and patient. These are also good chances to grow your digital and global communication skills.
Why Does Katrium Offer Internships to Students from Various Fields?
At Katrium, we see internships as a win for both sides. Interns gain real tasks and experience. In return, we get fresh ideas and different views. I started as an intern too, so I know how important it is to have a place where you can grow. From day one, interns work on real projects. You won’t just watch—you’ll take part and help shape results.
You’ll test how you handle stress, deal with change, and work with freedom and trust. You’ll build skills in areas like project planning, talking with clients, research, writing, and improving systems. You’ll also get to choose tasks based on what you enjoy and what you want to learn. Most of the learning comes from doing, trying, and even making mistakes. That’s how real progress happens.
We shape each internship around your goals and studies. The tasks are varied so that everyone can find something useful. But the most important part is your own drive to learn and try new things.
Katrium’s Core Values in Intern Support
There are values we want to share with every intern: responsibility, bouncing back from setbacks, working alone, taking action, trying without fear, and always being ready to learn. We believe mistakes are normal and help us grow. We want you to step outside your comfort zone.
Interns are full team members, and what they bring matters. Your new ideas can help us work better. Every intern can leave their mark—whether by improving how we do something or by suggesting a new tool. We’re always open to new ways to improve.
Diverse Projects and Practical Support for Interns
Our interns work on many types of tasks. The amount of responsibility changes depending on the project. Sometimes the pace is fast, other times it’s calm. This helps you get used to different work styles and develop flexibility. We welcome all kinds of skills—whether you’re leading a task or working behind the scenes.
Although we want interns to be independent, you’ll never be alone. When you start, you’ll team up with another intern for a few weeks. You’ll also get written guides to help you learn the basics. After that, feel free to ask questions any time. Asking is always encouraged, no matter how small the thing may seem.
We want every internship to be a true learning experience, not just work. You’ll get real tasks, the freedom to test new things, and space to learn from your mistakes. We also shape your tasks to match your personal goals. We suggest staying for at least two months, so you have time to adjust and gain useful experience.
A Strong Foundation for a Career – in Finland and Abroad
Katrium gives you the chance to start your international journey during your internship. You’ll work in a diverse remote team, deal with global clients, and take part in many different projects. This gives you a solid start for any global career. We’ve helped interns for over 20 years and seen many grow into confident professionals.
At the same time, Katrium is also a great place to build a career in Finland. You’ll develop skills like taking responsibility, teamwork, stress control, and working on your own—all important in Finnish work life. Remote work also helps you manage your time and lead yourself, which is useful in any job. Since we match tasks to your strengths and goals, you’ll get real experience that supports your future plans—no matter where you choose to work.
Multilingualism at Katrium is not a barrier—it’s an opportunity to develop language skills.
Things still run smoothly even when we speak different languages. You’ll get to practice and improve your language skills in a natural way. We also encourage interns to use AI tools. They help with writing, finding ideas, and sorting information. While they don’t replace people, they’re great for support.
What Do We Expect from a New Intern?
From day one, we want interns to feel like a part of the team. It’s okay to make mistakes. What matters most is your willingness to grow. You should be ready to take initiative, solve problems, and stay strong in tough moments. Good communication is the base of everything. Ask for help when needed, and be open to learning. We’ll support you—but you need to want to develop. We’re looking for interns who are curious, open-minded, and eager to explore.
