Through our remote-first operating model, we help organisations optimise customer interactions, reduce costs, and increase efficiency, combining automation and data-driven insight with a strong human focus.

Founded in 2020 by Aidan and Hilary O’Shea, Otonomee was created to challenge the traditional “big city, big building” BPO model.

Otonomee is built to be better for people, partners, and the planet. We have been a certified B Corp since September 2023 and were recently recognised as an EY Entrepreneur of the Year finalist.
