Marketing intern @ a startup fighting depression

Salary €750 - €1,500

We're on a mission to fight depression – and help millions of people to live happier, healthier lives. Launched in Finland Oct 2018, Lifeclass brings scalable support to both people living with depression and their loved ones. Our experienced team is backed by top healthcare professionals and startup investors. We're now looking for a marketing intern to join the team.


There are 350 million people currently suffering from depression. One in five Finns experiences major depressive disorder during their lives. Every single one of us faces depression in the role of a friend, colleague or family member.

Our mission is to reduce the number of suicides and the amount of suffering caused by mental disorders. Lifeclass' premium online classes help both people with depression and their loved ones to better cope with the difficult situation. 

The service was launched in Finland in Oct 2018 with large-scale media attention (Huomenta Suomi, HS, IS, IL, KL, Me Naiset...) and support from a number of influencers (Arman, Mikko Leppilampi, Jenni Rotonen...). We'll be expanding abroad with an English product version in 2019.

In addition to building a consumer brand we also work with healthcare providers, pension funds and companies to bring scalable support to people in need.
