Change negotiations support Veikkaus’ renewal: more new positions opening than existing roles ending
In line with its strategy, Veikkaus continues its journey towards July 2027, when Finland’s gambling system will change.
The new market situation ahead requires Veikkaus to reshape its organisation through change negotiations. The negotiation proposal was issued today, Wednesday, 2 September. It concerns Veikkaus’ Data & AI unit, two business units, and Finance teams.
Some current roles are planned to end, but at the same time new positions are opening within the company. By filling these positions, Veikkaus aims to strengthen its position in an increasingly competitive environment.
In total, 15 positions are planned to potentially end, while 17 new positions are planned to be created. Substantial changes may be made to four positions.
The negotiations are estimated to last approximately three weeks.
– The new market situation requires us to be able to renew our capabilities and ways of working. What is essential in this change is that the focus and content of work will change: while some current roles are planned to end, more new roles are being created in terms of number. We want to ensure that we are ready to meet future requirements with our strong expertise, says Reija Airas, EVP, People, Culture & Communications.
