Job summary

Omilia is casting voices to power synthetic speech for enterprise brands, across IVR and related services. We seek native speakers with authentic regional accents, who can read scripts and adapt quickly to direction. Two tracks exist: national neutral and distinctly regional accents.

Remote auditions are welcome from eligible regions, with paid rounds and a clear licensing framework. Auditions involve short samples, followed by a custom script and a directed session.

Job description

About the project Omilia builds the conversational AI that answers the phone for some of the world's largest banks, insurers, healthcare providers and utilities. When a customer calls their bank at 11pm, ours is the voice that picks up.

We are casting the voices that will do that job next. Your recorded speech will be used to build a synthetic voice that speaks on behalf of enterprise brands — reading balances, confirming appointments, resolving claims, guiding people through problems.

This is not narration or commercial VO. It is service speech: the register of a calm, competent professional who is genuinely helping someone.

Locales we are casting Each locale is cast separately. We are not looking for a generic "European French" or "neutral Spanish" — we cast for the region.

For Latin American Spanish, the list above is not exhaustive — we are casting across all Latin American locales and accents. If your country is not named, apply anyway.

We are casting on two tracks: national neutral (the educated broadcast standard of your country) and distinctly regional accents. Both are wanted. Do not neutralise your accent for the sample — record how you actually speak, and tell us where you are from.

All genders, adult age ranges from early 20s upward.

Native speakers only. The accent must be authentically of the region. Talent living abroad is welcome, provided the accent has not drifted.

Bilingual and multilingual talent strongly encouraged. If you can deliver two or more of the above at native or near-native level, say so — it is a real advantage in selection.

What we're listening for

Warm, clear, unforced. Conversational, not announcer-y.

A voice that is pleasant to hear every day and never draws attention to itself.

Comfort taking live direction and adapting quickly between characters.

Prior IVR, e-learning, audiobook or voice-AI experience is an advantage, not a requirement. We have cast excellent voices with no professional credits.

Equipment Your own studio or professional booth is preferred, but not required. A microphone with a pop filter and a free recording app in a quiet room is enough to be considered. No equipment at all is not a blocker — please still apply and we will arrange.

How selection works Round 1 — Short sample. 30–60 seconds in your own voice, on any script you like. Any recording device. We are listening for the voice and the accent, nothing else.

Round 2 — Custom script. Shortlisted talent receive a recording brief with our scripts and characters, plus an optional live coaching session with our voice team.

Round 3 — Directed session. A single remote recording session of roughly one hour, guided end to end by our team. Short scripts, a few takes each. No long or repetitive recording days.

Paid engagement. Fees, licence scope and terms are set out in writing with shortlisted talent before anything is recorded. Samples submitted in Rounds 1 and 2 are used for selection only — never commercially.

Omilia is an equal opportunity organisation. We cast voices from all backgrounds, ages and genders.
