Job Description

Fiber Project Manager - Operations

Do you want to make sure people, businesses, and society stay connected — by helping us maintain and protect the fiber Infrastructure of Finland?

To be part of this journey, we believe you’ll need:

• Project management experience within fiber or telecom-related environments
• Experience working with local authorities and municipalities
• A driver’s license and comfort with on-site work
• Fluent Finnish (mandatory) and proficient English skills
• Based on or willing to relocate to Helsinki

About the role and the team:
At GlobalConnect, we don’t just build infrastructure. We safeguard it. As a Fiber Project Manager, you’ll play a hands-on role in making sure our fiber network stays safe, smart, and ready for the future.

You’ll be part of a dedicated team ensuring that our cables are exactly where they need to be — and not where they shouldn’t. From managing contractors to liaising with local authorities and planning maintenance or repairs, you’ll work to minimize disruptions, avoid incidents, and keep the quality high and costs down.

Some days will be about measurements and inspections. Others about coordinating forced fiber moves, reviewing plans, or solving unexpected hiccups. But every day will be about protecting what keeps Finland connected.

What you’ll be working on:

• Handling maintenance, fiber relocations and permanent repairs across the Finnish fiber network
• Ensure quality of fiber network handover from construction to operations.
• Acting as the go-to person for local authorities, municipalities, and contractors
• Planning and executing projects that prevent damage and reduce downtime
• Making decisions that balance budget and quality
• Participating in ongoing improvement initiatives within the team

Join GlobalConnect

You’ll be joining our Fiber Operations team, with colleagues spread across Finland — and working closely with other teams across the Nordics. This role is based on-site in Helsinki with some travel as needed.
We’re not a traditional telecom company. We’re on a mission to make digital infrastructure work smarter, safer, and more sustainable for everyone. If that speaks to you, you’ll feel right at home here.

Join us and be part of the transformation in the most exciting company within critical digital infrastructure in Northern Europe! Apply today! No need for a personal letter– just send us your CV or LinkedIn profile. If you have any questions about the role, please feel free to contact us.

"One of the coolest things I’ve seen is the way people act towards each other here. There are no employees that are more important than others. It is like a big family. I still feel that way, even though we are a much bigger company today than we were when I first joined."
