Working at Fondia

We are a tribe of passionate professionals with a slightly rebellious spirit. Since 2004, we have been breaking new ground between in-house legal teams and traditional law firms.

Today Fondia is the first publicly listed company in our field in the Nordics, strengthening our foothold in Northern Europe. In 2019, our group revenue was 20,1 million euros and we continue to grow.

Currently, we employ over 165 people across Finland, Sweden and the Baltics: our customers can enjoy services provided by more than one hundred of our experienced and very approachable business law experts. Our success formula is all about people and we have been recognized as a great place to work both in Finland and in Europe.

Our unique culture and no asshole policy mean that it also feels great to come to work on Monday mornings. It all starts from our values. We really talk about our values in our everyday life.

At Fondia, our values do not only direct how we treat each other; they drive how we work and solve our customers’ needs.

Our values today - driven by Pride & Passion:

• Dare to Create - Yes you can
• My Place to Work - Be yourself
• Law Made Smart - Minding our customers' business is our business
• Give and receive - We help each other shine

We nurture our no-asshole culture and a can-do, pragmatic approach.

Our unique business model and up-to-date digital tools help you keep up as a forerunner in the legal field.

We can offer you the opportunity to work extensively across different fields of law, and with various companies and colleagues. Our time bank and flexible ways of working ensure a good work-life balance. We invest heavily in maintaining our knowledge at a high level. Fondia gives you freedom & responsibility: we cherish our flat, non-hierarchical organization.

It was an honor to see Fondia once again shortlisted as one of the most innovative law firms in Europe at the Financial Times (FT) Innovative Lawyers Awards 2018. As a gesture of Fondia’s culture, Fondia’s six representatives at the ceremony in London were selected by draw from all Fondians.

The FT Innovative Lawyers Awards were held for the 12th time. The list of candidates included 87 European law firms, legal service companies and company in-house legal departments selected from over 800 applicants. This time, we achieved a whopping third place and were shortlisted as a standout firm in the category ‘Business of Law, Innovation in Business and Service Models’.

Fondia has also had success in the FT Innovative Lawyers Awards in the past: in 2013, Fondia won the ‘Most Innovative Law Firm in Corporate Strategy’ category and, in 2015, Fondia was ranked second in the ‘Top Game Changers of the Past 10 Years’ category.

We cherish our open and transparent culture. Here you can get to know a few fellow Fondians. If you wish to know more or have any questions, just give one of them a call.

Building a great workplace is a strategic choice for Fondia and we are constantly seeking skilled individuals to join us. In particular, we are looking for senior lawyers from various backgrounds and industries in Finland, Sweden and Estonia.
