Leena Vänni

Media and Marketing Communications Specialist

firstname.lastname@tela.fi

Who?

I work in TELA as a media and marketing communications specialist. I came to TELA from the Prison and Probation Service of Finland. Before that, I worked in communications for many years, first in a trade union and then at an employers’ association. I have so much work experience that moving into the pension sphere felt logical. I’ve also put the principles of work into a book for kids aged around six (Raisu-koira menee töihin, “Raisu the dog gets a job”, Lector, 2022) – that story ended in retirement too. I hold an M.A. in Communication Studies from the University of Vaasa.

Responsibilities

  • External communications
  • Website maintenance and development
  • Social media
  • Events

Ask me

  • Which competent TELA specialist would be a good event guest or interviewee for you?

The pension system is like a mushroom: it grows and develops almost invisibly, but then becomes visible above ground, ready to be picked.

In my spare time:

My hobbies include snowboarding and skateboarding, and a side-effect of that is that I like to edit videos about them. Sometimes I do resistance band exercises and other workouts. I always love to sing karaoke if given the chance.

Comments by workmates:

Leena is one of those communicators who realizes what the deal and the matter are after half a sentence, even half a word! As the newest addition to TELA, Leena has already made very good suggestions about our communications. She’s also funny! Leena lives in Hyvinkää, so keeps a healthy distance from the Helsinki bubble.
