Posti to hire 1700 seasonal workers for Christmas

National postal and logistic services operator Posti will hire about 1700 employees for the Christmas season across Finland, said Posti in a press release on Monday.

Christmas workers will be needed for logistics, delivery, sorting, and customer support tasks, as well as temporary pickup points.

E-commerce growth has increased the number of parcels we deliver, and Christmas cards are still a cherished tradition for many.

“We at Posti deliver Christmas cheer everywhere in Finland and help our customers with their Christmas preparations. The work of our Christmas makers is extremely important to us. We offer a good training for the work and team support,” said Jenni Ailio, who oversees Posti’s recruiting.

Seasonal work is especially popular among students because of the flexible work shifts.

Depending on the task, work is available for mornings, days, evenings, and weekends in November and December.

Recruitment has already started and there will be more openings during October.
