WOTSO

WOTSO is a prominent Australian-owned and operated provider of flexible workspaces, offering a diverse ecosystem designed to support businesses and individuals across Australia and New Zealand. Established in 2014, WOTSO emerged from an innovative approach to utilising vacant commercial property, evolving from a subsidiary of BlackWall Ltd (ASX: BWF) to become one of the region's largest flexible workspace operators. The company's unique trajectory saw its CEO, Jessie Glew, begin her journey as a receptionist, embodying the growth and upward mobility fostered within the organisation. WOTSO's core mission is to provide adaptable and affordable workspace solutions, challenging traditional long-term leases with month-to-month memberships and no lock-in contracts, catering to sole traders, small to medium enterprises (SMEs), growing teams, and large corporates alike.

What sets WOTSO apart is its strategic focus on suburban and regional locations, complementing a presence in key central business districts, thereby bringing professional amenities closer to where people live and work. This decentralised approach, combined with vibrant and creatively designed spaces, aims to foster a strong sense of community and reduce daily commutes. WOTSO offers a comprehensive suite of services, including coworking desks, private serviced offices, versatile meeting and event spaces, virtual offices, and specialised offerings like HealthSpace for wellness professionals and StorageSpace for business needs. The WOTSO Passport Program exemplifies true flexibility, allowing members seamless access to any of its numerous locations nationwide.

Under the leadership of CEO Jessie Glew and Non-Executive Chairman Seph Glew, WOTSO has achieved significant expansion, boasting over 30 locations across Australia and New Zealand, with plans to reach 100 sustainable sites. Notable accomplishments include opening a record eight new coworking locations in 2025 and forging successful partnerships with major landlords such as Stockland and Frasers Property Australia. The company's financial performance reflects its growth, with reported revenue increases driven by new locations, strong performance from developing sites, and a rapid 31% growth in coworking ancillary revenue (meeting rooms and virtual office). WOTSO continually innovates its offerings, introducing concepts like the Coworking Café for compact, central workspaces and actively engaging with local communities through initiatives such as supporting DV Safe Phone.
