Härmälä graduated as an economist from the Helsinki School of Economics in 1969. He worked for Enso-Gutzeit from 1970 to 1984 (merged to Stora Enso in 1998), as CFO and Executive Vice President of the sawmill business.

In September 2007, the Finnish press was heavily criticized for cheering on Jukka Härmälä, as Stora Enso's failed 'conquest of America' resulted in a loss of EUR 5 billion. This includes the acquisition of Consolidated Papers in 2000. It was one of the largest and most unsuccessful acquisitions in Finnish economic history. The company's purchase price in 2000 was € 5 billion and the sale price in 2007 was € 1.8 billion.[2]
