Welcome to Olamalu
We like to do things a bit differently here. Yes, we are experts in technology, fully loaded with experience and expertise to deliver exactly what your organisation needs to move you forward, but working with us is more than that.
You are not just a brief
When we take on a project we don’t treat you as just a brief. We throw ourselves into delivering the work, but we do so with care, nurture and warmth. We get to know you and your team and the people that will be using and benefiting from the technology we will develop. We spend time understanding how your organisation works now and what your long-term objectives are to ensure that what we build is future proof.
After the project, we don’t disappear. Instead, we offer support, training, advice and more. We’re here to help you to get the most out of your technology for the long-term and to stand alongside you as your digital technology experts.
Our Story
From the very beginning, Olamalu has been a business centred around using web technology to solve problems for customers, in a caring and supportive way. One which looks outward and actively participates in making its community a better place.
Having worked together for many years at global giant GE, Kate and Christoph took a leap of faith, moved back to the UK and started Olamalu, at the same time as starting their family, which kept them very busy! The unusual name originated from a bedtime story invented for their children - the magical Olamalu tree, which was an opening into new worlds and new adventures. This name reflects the ideals on which the business was based: our own creation, which offers up new and exciting opportunities, and has grown into a fantastic team of talented people.
Community and personal relationships with customers, alongside excellent technical expertise, is at the heart of Olamalu as a business. As a team, we draw on the experience gained from working in a large corporation: delivering solutions and projects that are technically excellent, right down to the details. But, unlike in a big company, where impersonal business relationships and large-scale corporate management is the norm, at Olamalu we focus on creating a supportive environment for each other and for our customers - a space where technical excellence can work hand-in-hand with personal relationships.
Each one of us at Olamalu thrives on the thrill and fulfilment of constructing solutions to problems, especially when it helps make people’s lives easier or businesses better. The process of solving problems is ongoing. As a project evolves, we know that our customers' understanding of what they want or need evolves too, and the solution must adapt alongside this. What we want to deliver is a delivering a solution that really works for the customer, both at the start and into the future. The excitement and satisfaction of a problem solved or project delivered drives Olamalu onwards.
Like the magical tree, Olamalu has created many novel and inspiring opportunities for us, which has allowed the business to grow and expand in a fast-moving industry. Over a decade has passed since the foundation of the business, and Olamalu’s core principles have remained the same: providing creative and ongoing solutions to problems, delivering a high standard of work, and supporting their customers and community with care.
