When we started Otta, the realities of job search were quite bleak. Recruitment was stuck in the dark ages, the big players had failed to innovate, and job seekers were fed-up. Searches were throwing up irrelevant jobs. Recruiters were pushing unsuitable roles. Being ghosted by companies was the norm. Finding a new job was so daunting.
We've left the world of basic job boards behind. Finding a new job is more than just a transaction. It’s exciting, rewarding - and an opportunity to find true fulfilment.
We're the only job search that does you justice. At Otta everything we do aims to bring out the best in you. Whether that's being picky about the companies that make it onto the platform, recommending the kind of roles you jump up and down about, sharing insights to help you make smarter applications, or giving you the tools to express that you're more than just a resume. It’s all about you - and you putting your best foot forward.
Everyone deserves to find a fulfilling job. Our mission is to help you get there.

For too long, men have fallen behind when it comes to addressing their health. We ignore niggles and hide worries. We man up, instead of opening up.
Were here to change that.
Our online platform wants to change the way men approach - and discuss - their health, starting with an issue that affects a staggering number of young men in the UK: Erectile Dysfunction (ED).
Offering complete discretion, authorised treatments, and reliable medical advice, we aim to tackle the taboos associated with a number of male health conditions; ED being the first of many. The causes may be complex, but the solution doesn’t have to be.

We’re rethinking everything. Starting with food.
Using safe, proven fermentation methods we make animal-free whey protein from microflora – not cows – to make dairy that’s identical to traditional milk. The production of our whey protein emits up to 97% less greenhouse gas emissions, uses up to 99% less blue water, and uses up to 60% less nonrenewable energy, compared to the production of protein found in traditional milk.
Our protein comes in a variety of applications including cream cheese, barista milk, ice cream, protein powder, egg replacer, bakery mix, confectionery, and gelato.
Some of our partners in-market include Mars, Nestlé, Natreve, Brave Robot, Myprotein, Strive Nutrition, Nicks, Tomorrow Farms, Villa Dolce, Betterland, and more.
It’s dairy that’s better for everything.

Humin is a new phone and contacts app that captures all of your relationships and remembers them the way you naturally think.
Contacts are the core of your social experience on mobile, and yet it’s the one thing that hasn’t changed since the earliest flip phones. All of your contacts are still stored in one giant alphabetical list. But now, with Humin, your phone will remember the context of your relationships and let you search them the way you think.
The archaic, impersonal era of organizing people alphabetically is finally over. Humin’s search is inspired by the way you naturally think, understanding the unique context and strength of your relationships. Everyone you know from school, work or your weekend crew – Humin brings them all into one place. Instead of struggling for someone’s name when you run into them (starts with an S...?), you can search “works at Humin” or “met at Shake Shack” and find exactly who you are looking for based on the details that you can easily remember.
Located in downtown San Francisco, the team at Humin is passionately building new technologies that are contextual for each user. Our team pushes each other forward to tackle complex world problems with seemingly obvious, "why-hasnt-anyone-thought-of-this-before" solutions. Each new member is greeted with a "Blue Label Ceremony" and the autonomy to use their unique skills to help build a company and a future that is truly remarkable.
