Employer brand work and the practical nurse campaign winners at Magnet Awards 2024
Mehiläinen was awarded the Grand Prix for the Most Magnetic Employer Brand at the Magnet Employer Branding Awards 2024 gala that celebrates the best employer brand initiatives. The award is given to an employer brand that has been developed over a long period of time and in a manner that yields results.
In addition, Mehiläinen’s “Practical nurses are on a lifelong mission” campaign was chosen “Best Employer Brand Campaign” and Mehiläinen’s Head of Marketing and Employer Branding Reetta Rautkivi was selected as the winner in the “EB Professional of the Year” category. The grounds for giving the award to the “Practical nurses are on a lifelong mission” campaign were the excellent campaign results and the positive encouragement that the campaign created by showcasing the practical nurse’s work.
This year was the second time that the Magnet Employer Branding Awards were given in Finland. In 2023, we took the first place in the category “Creating an Employer Brand”.
Rekrygaala – Employer Brand of the Year 2022

The jury of professionals justified its choice with Mehiläinen's long-term work for its employer image in a sector suffering from a severe shortage of skilled labour.
