Why is buying the stuff you need to get your job done so painful? Why does it involve loads of emails, hours wasted, and frustration on every side?
The way businesses buy stuff is completely broken. Whether it’s SaaS, hardware, or contractors, the average B2B purchase takes over 3 months, requires 50+ emails, and involves multiple different stakeholders (IT, Legal, InfoSec, Finance, etc.).
It should not be this way. Omnea is building one platform to handle the entire purchasing process: giving employees an easy place to make requests and automating the necessary approvals for the purchase to be made.
No more interruptions, wasted time or email chasers when you needed the tool a week ago.
We are lucky to be supported by the two best VCs out there (one European, one US) and 20+ of the most renowned Founders of the last decade,who have invested an initial £4m to help us develop our core product.
Being part of the early Omnea team and going after this multi-billion dollar problem space is the ideal opportunity for anyone looking to get in at the very start of something huge.
Omnea is a long awaited disruption in a critical problem space. Their focus on quality product design and engineering, combined with a gigantic market opportunity, makes this an amazing career choice.
Omnea is using some of the most cutting-edge tech in the market to build a scalable product while innovating at the speed their users want. Delighted to be partnering with them on their journey to solve a billion dollar problem!
Omnea’s vision is as exciting as it is challenging. This is an incredibly unique opportunity for ambitious engineers who want to have an outsized impact at the start of something big.
If you've ever built a company you know Omnea is solving a critical pain point. This could be an entirely new category in enterprise SaaS.
Our product is broad & complex, so we’ve partnered with procurement leaders from 20+ world-renowned businesses who advise us and ensure we’re building this right!
It's about time a procurement tool was actually understood & used by everyone else in the org.
My most popular response last year was 'please see the buying process document in the wiki'... why can it not be configured into a tool?
IT, InfoSec, Legal, and Finance use their own siloed tools & my team has somehow become the shepherds of this process.
I've hired four more people just to project manage buying processes and 70% of their time is spent chasing other people.

The Omnea team at our December social at Monopoly Live 🎲
Omnea is made up of a small but mighty team in pursuit of fixing a problem that most companies in the world are struggling with – how they buy stuff.
We have experience leading some of Europe’s fastest-growing start-ups, working with the best investors (Sequoia, Accel, Balderton, etc.), and bringing multiple products to market.
We have done this before but naturally, don’t have all the answers! And we’re looking for like-minded people to come and join us to build a product, team and business that we are all proud to be a part of.

Bea already bored of her coding lesson…
Sorry Rowan.
We are thinking carefully about all things that foster a rewarding, healthy and fun culture. As an early team member, you will have the opportunity to shape this with us, so this list will keep growing!
Some things we’ve settled on including:
Meaningful upside. We’ve stayed disciplined on valuation and the amount of money we have raised to ensure that early team members have significant financial upside. We genuinely want this to feel like everyone’s business and for it to be a life-changing opportunity for the early team.
The biggest career-boosting opportunity out there. Join a small but proven team who have scaled businesses to hundreds of thousands of users & tens of million in revenue before, and have funding from the best investors in the world. No scale-up can match the growth potential that comes with being part of the early team at Omnea.
You’ll personally have a massive impact. As part of the early team, you will have a direct and visible impact on the product, team & company. And you’ll get to leave your mark on a huge new category of enterprise SaaS, building & shipping a product that will be used by hundreds of thousands of people.
Clear pathway to grow. You’re getting in on day 1. You’ll be given as much opportunity as you can handle, whether that’s building & managing a team, owning an entire part of the product as we scale, or making key architectural decisions.
Culture of trust, transparency, and candour. You’ll operate with autonomy, work directly with the founders, and be empowered to make decisions.
The way we work at Omnea is a really important part of creating a strong team foundation and culture. Read more about why we made the decision for a hybrid working model.
We are looking for an entrepreneurial & commercial powerhouse to join us as Omnea’s first sales hire. You'll be excited to build a business from the ground up & have a massively accelerated career trajectory.
We are looking for an exceptional software engineer that is ready to build & shape Omnea's first product. We're moving fast and want people who are hungry to jump in and code, learn, and ship in equal measure.
As an early engineer, this is a unique opportunity to help build a product from scratch. You'll be working broadly across Engineering, Product, Support and People to implement the vision for Omnea and set the direction for the next 10 years.
Want to join but don't see a spot for you?
We aren't yet hiring for our first sales, customer success, marketing, or product roles just yet but if you think you could be a great fit, please get in touch! We are open to hiring anyone amazing immediately. Just email our Chief of Staff, Claire (claire.w@omnea.co) with what role you're looking for.
If you have any other questions or want to chat, please reach out to claire.w@omnea.co We're happy to help!
Omnea is supported by the two best VCs out there and 10+ of the most renowned Founders of the last decade, who have invested an initial $5m to help us develop our core product, helping how businesses streamline their purchasing processes.
We are now building our ambitious team to go on this journey with us and build one of Europe’s fastest-growing start-ups! Join us on this adventure!

Omnea is made up of a small team in pursuit of one mighty goal; to help businesses thrive. Our journey has led us to guide some of Europe's fastest-growing start-ups, working with the best investors and bringing multiple products to the market.
We understand that persistent progress needs a certain kind of mindset. One, that wants to define their career by personally having a direct, visible and meaningful impact on the industry. Nowadays it is easy to swap meaningful and exciting trajectories for elaborate company perks, such as free food and regular sponsored time working abroad.
But at Omnea we want to give you both. All while our focus feeds a culture, where we give you autonomy over your area, create a diverse team with the best peers to learn from and help you work towards goals, that actually excite you.
To ensure that Omnea feels like your business, we are giving early team members equity above the market rate.
Here, we are building in a space that hasn't been disrupted in over 20 years. The opportunities we are creating for some of the most exciting companies out there are vast and of incredibly high quality. If this sounds like you, come and join the ride!
We are carefully thinking about all things that foster a healthy, balanced and fun work-life balance. Although we might not always have the most advanced & out-there company perks, here at Omnea we want to ensure that the environment created and the benefits received contribute to your life in a meaningful way. We find that so many companies nowadays will prioritize fancy perks and work environments over actually taking care of their employees - we want to make sure employee wellbeing actually comes first.
We are hoping you can help us shape the culture and promise to listen to the feedback of our team to expand this list.
