WORKING AT OTEMBA

We’re a family-run business — and it shows.We work hard, keep it fun, and look out for each other.
No drama, just a solid team.

Two locations, one crew:
West or De Pijp — pick what suits you.
Prefer to stay in one spot or mix it up? We’re flexible.

We’re into good energy, initiative, and people who bring their own style.
Be yourself — that works at Otemba.
