OUR MISSION
At Omnea, we’re reinventing how enterprise businesses operate, starting with the most painful parts: procurement – where a single
purchase can drag on for months, trigger 50+ emails, and pull in Finance, Legal, Security, and IT just to get something approved.
We’ve raised $75M from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners, and Accel to change that. Our AI-native platform connects every person,
step, and system so buying is fast, safe, and efficient – one place to request, automated approvals and renewals, real-time
supplier risk, and complete spend visibility.
The opportunity is massive. Every enterprise on the planet has this problem and nobody has solved it. We’ve 10x’d ARR to
double-digit millions in 18 months and are trusted by global enterprises like Spotify, MongoDB, Monzo, and Albertsons. We’re now
the 4th fastest growing startup in Europe & the Sunday Times' #1 Best Medium Sized Tech Company To Work for.
Our team previously scaled Tessian (cybersecurity tech, backed by Sequoia, Balderton, Accel, acquired post-Series C), and our team
includes ex-founders operators who’ve grown unicorns, shipped world-class products, and executed at the highest levels. You’ll
work alongside leaders like Ben, Abs, Sabrina, and Rebe.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We’re looking for our first US Account Manager to join Omnea’s customer team. You’ll be excited to own expansion quotas and
renewal outcomes for our rapidly scaling customer base, to build a function and to have a massively accelerated career trajectory.
You will own the relationship with our customers throughout the entire customer lifecycle, playing a crucial role in managing our
largest and most strategic customers. Your key focus will be to ensure customers get meaningful value from Omnea from the earliest
stages & beyond, and through your expertise and the building of deep & long-term relationships with our champions, you will drive
renewals, expansion and upsell opportunities. You’ll become a trusted advisor & partner to our customers & stakeholders at all
levels (from the procurement managers up to the CFOs) and be the voice of the customer internally, working closely with teams
across the business (both technical and commercial) to help ensure we are truly operating with customer-centricity at our core.
You’ll be joining us at a pivotal time. We’ve just raised $50M in Series B funding from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners, Accel,
Point Nine, and First Round Capital. In the past year we’ve grown revenue 5x, tripled our customer base, and maintained >99%
retention with enterprises like Spotify, Wise, Albertsons, Adecco, and McAfee. Our team is small but high-calibre -- it took over
10,000 interviews to hire our first 50 Omneans.
Now we’re scaling fast and building the category of AI Supplier Relationship Management. And we are looking for the first Account
Manager out there to help turn procurement into a true competitive advantage!
OVERVIEW

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
You'll do whatever it takes to make sure our customers get real ROI and drive exceptional commercial outcomes. You'll go from
being deep in a renewal negotiation to collaborating with sales to update our ROI calculator & business case, to attending events
to network with C-Suite stakeholders, to being the voice of your customers in a product strategy workshop. You own NRR across a
book of enterprise accounts, so everything you do is tied back to commercial outcomes.
- Own a revenue number: You'll carry an NRR quota covering both expansion and retention across your enterprise book. That means
proactively identifying upsell opportunities, running commercial conversations at exec level, and owning the renewal process
end-to-end.
- Build relationships that go all the way to the top: Your relationships will run from procurement managers to CFOs. You'll
multi-thread across each account, building genuine trust across multiple stakeholders, and you'll be the person customers call
when something goes wrong or when they're thinking about what's next.
- Build the playbook from scratch: There's no fully built playbook yet - you'll help shape it. You'll work alongside an
exceptional implementation team, product experts, and leadership that have scaled world-class companies to define the
commercial rhythms, norms, and processes to set the standard as the function grows.
- Shape what Omnea builds next: You're the closest person to what our customers will and won't pay for. You'll feed that signal
directly to Product and Revenue leadership, surfacing what's blocking adoption, what's driving expansion, and where we should
be investing.
ABOUT YOU
We don’t expect you to know exactly how to do absolutely everything when you join! We are looking for someone with the right
attitude & skillset to take on this challenge. TL;DR you're commercially sharp and instinctively know how to navigate complex
organisations. You might come from consulting, sales, or a generalist commercial role - what matters is that you've worked in
proper enterprise environments, managed senior stakeholders with high expectations, and have a track record of getting things=
done.
- You have 4-8 years of experience in a top-tier & fast-paced environment; perhaps that’s a start-up or scale-up, VC, consulting,
banking (or any prof services), or an entrepreneurial endeavour
- If you have experience in a commercial role, you've worked on six-figure ARR+ accounts, navigated multi-stakeholder buying
committees, and built genuine executive relationships.
- You have the ability to build rapport, influence people & drive change, whether it’s with a distinguished exec or a junior
operator. You have the gravitas and executive presence to engage and influence senior leadership (ideally into CFOs, Legal or
Procurement). You’re a natural communicator and can get on well with anyone.
- You're comfortable in ambiguity. You don't need a fully built playbook, you'll build it as you go and improve it as you learn.
You're organised enough to manage a complex book of business without dropping anything, and confident enough to push back on
customers when they're wrong.
- You're ambitious, competitive, and care about doing excellent work. You probably have a track record of high performance in
whatever you've turned your hand to, whether that's sales, academia, sport, or something of your own. You take ownership
seriously, and you'd rather work really hard on something meaningful than coast on something safe.
- You work hard & care lots about your work. Your level of ambition & desire to have a successful career make the required
sacrifice & dedication worth it
- You are great at being ‘in the weeds’ and zooming out to consider the bigger picture. Perhaps you’ve had to execute & manage
projects yourself before, so you’re used to shifting gear between operational & strategic work
- You’re an outstanding communicator; verbal, written, and when presenting. You are able to be clear & concise even when
explaining complex things
- You’re highly organised & focussed on outputs > inputs - you know the level of discipline, organisation, and ruthless
prioritisation it takes to be productive and you pride yourself on these qualities.
At Omnea, we embrace diversity. To build a product that's loved by everyone, we're best served by a team with all sorts of
backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't quite match the full job
spec! And regardless of your race, religion, colour, gender, or anything else! If you think you could be a good fit for Omnea,
please reach out.
