Otolo is on the hunt for a passionate Chief Technology Officer to join our management team as we look to our next stages of growth.
🙌 About Us:
Otolo is the new global community connecting people passionate for hospitality, on a mission to disrupt the way hospitality people develop, connect and grow their careers, with quality blended mentoring, career coaching and e-learning. At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, which had devastated operations, employees and customers of UK and global hospitality businesses, we founded an online mentoring service, connecting hospitality students and early career professionals (mentees) with experienced industry leaders (mentors) who have seen, survived and performed in past crises and challenges.
We’ve grown over the last 12 months at a great pace! We now have an online platform of 2000 members & 100 mentors offering:
- Community – a place to discuss, meet, inspire & learn with peers;
- Connections – matches with vetted mentors at events, 1 to 1 or group mentoring; &
- Courses – more formal programmes for those looking to achieve accreditation.
Plus exciting news – we recently won a new grant to continue our mission!
If you are an enthusiastic people-person, who can identify with our values and is excited at the prospect of helping us build and develop a new global network of hospitality businesses, universities and associations to help the hospitality industry at this huge time of need, we would love to hear from you.
