A QUARTER OF A CENTURY
OF AMBITION, GROWTH
AND CONNECTIONS
Twenty-five years ago, on the 8th of March, OTTO Work Force began with the placement of four Polish employees. Today, we have grown into Europe's largest employment organisation.
On 14 March 2025, we will celebrate this remarkable 25th anniversary together with our valued business relations, friends, and partners. These festive days will also mark the official farewell of Frank van Gool and Karolina Swoboda as they step down from the OTTO organisation from their roles as CEO and Vice-CEO respectively.

ABOUT OTTO FOUNDATION
While OTTO Work Force supports many worthwhile initiatives, we are particularly proud of the OTTO Foundation. This foundation allows us to give back to the regions where many of our colleagues come from - places that could really benefit from additional help and support. Through the OTTO Foundation, we try to improve these areas by contributing to their development and helping people in difficult circumstances.
Unfortunately, some of the regions in which we work are affected by war. This has a devastating effect on the people there. Through the Foundation, we aim to provide both humanitarian and economic support to those affected by these conflicts.
