Enterprise Account Executive
Omnea
Sales Lead
"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.”
- Claire Hughes Johnson, Ex-COO, Stripe
Omnea named top 10 SaaS companies in the UK to watch 2022 by Beauhurst.
Mission
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.). No one likes the way it is and it’s slowing businesses down.
Omnea’s platform handles the entire purchasing process: giving employees an easy place to make requests and automating the necessary approvals for the purchase to be made.
Given the current market outlook, there has never been a more vital time for businesses to get control of their spend. This is Spend Control 2.0 — built for tougher times.
We are looking for an entrepreneurial & commercial powerhouse to join us as Omnea’s first 'quota-carrier.' You'll be excited to scale an early stage business & have a massively accelerated career trajectory.
You’ll be joining us at an incredibly exciting time, just as things are starting to take off! Last summer, we raised an initial $5m from two tier 1 VCs and 30+ renowned founders, and we’ve spent the past 12 months building & deploying our platform with well known tech companies. Now we’re ready to scale fast and we need someone to drive our GTM efforts and close deals. We’ve built an experienced team — every engineer was a top performer & tech lead at their previous business (Freetrade, Cazoo, Primer.ai, etc.), and I went on a similar journey with Tessian six years ago, driving revenue from $0-30m+ ARR, and from pre-seed to Series C (Sequoia, Accel, etc.).
There are no limits with this role, and we expect this person to be a future commercial leader at Omnea as we scale.

What Can You Expect?
-
You’ll be the first 'quota-carrier' at one of Europe’s most promising early-stage companies working alongside an experienced team who have done this before & worked with the best investors and teams out there
You’ll report into our Founder CEO and partner with our Commercial Lead (who have both done the $0-10m+ ARR journey before) -
You’ll be the engine for our revenue growth, learning how to take a product to market and scale to $millions in ARR by actually doing it
-
You’ll navigate complex sales cycles with the world’s leading mid-market and enterprise tech businesses (~300-8,000 employees), initially securing mid-five and then low-six figure deals
-
You’ll build & manage our sales pipeline, close deals, and partner with our CEO on GTM strategy as we expand our ideal customer profile & find success in other sectors and geographies…hopefully, you’ll manage a geography/sector/team in the next 12 months
-
You’ll help to create our sales processes as you build them, experimenting with different messaging & outbound strategies
-
You’ll become the best person in the company at explaining & pitching the product
-
You’ll have close relationships across product, engineering, and customer success, giving feedback gathered from the front line/speaking to prospective customers, allowing you to help steer our roadmap & experience first-hand how great products & great businesses are built
-
You’ll work more broadly across the business than any other ‘normal’ sales role, stepping up to help with marketing, events, community, onboarding customers, and whatever else needs to be done
-
You’ll network with CFOs & procurement leaders, attend events across the world, and become well-known in this space
-
As we scale our GTM function, you’ll have an outsized impact on the business either bringing in the largest, most strategic customers or building out future teams as we expand globally. We operate as a meritocracy & there are no limits to your growth
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.

About You
You’re ambitious and hard-working, and will succeed at whatever you put your mind to. You make up for any potential lack of experience with intelligence, grit, and a constant growth mindset. You have natural hustle and know how to get people on side. You know you can sell and are hungry for an entrepreneurial & high impact journey. You derive energy from building meaningful relationships and setting & achieving lofty goals. You get bored when things don’t move fast or when you can’t have an outsized impact.
- You have 3-7 years of experience succeeding in a B2B SaaS sales role or something comparable (i.e. you know you can sell!)
If you’ve done B2B sales before, you will have consistently performed top or nearly top of your team
It might even be ok if you haven’t done B2B / SaaS sales before but you will have consistently excelled at something incredibly challenging that demonstrates your grit & perserverance, and your ability to perform in the top 1%. If you’re less experienced, our Commercial Associate role is likely a better fit
- You’re entrepreneurial and want to be part of building a business. You want to rise faster or earn more than would be possible in any ‘normal’ career and you’re happy to roll up your sleeves and do whatever’s required. FYI, we've signed up to the Future Founder Promise
- You’re ambitious, competitive, and care lots about your career. You are probably happiest when working really hard and solving challenging problems/winning deals. You know this requires dedication & some sacrifice but you think it’s worth it
- You’ve got a track record of exceptional performance, whether it’s in academia, work, sport, a sales team, or whatever else you’ve put your mind to
- You’re intelligent and have the capacity to rapidly understand our product inside and out
- You have good commercial intuition, and the ability to build rapport, influence people & drive change, whether it’s with a distinguished exec or a junior operator. You can get on well with anyone and have the gravitas to sell to senior leadership (eg. CFOs), or the ability to learn quickly
- You’re an outstanding communicator; verbal, written, and when presenting
Know anyone great? Refer them to us by emailing Claire at [email protected] and we’ll pay you £10,000 once they pass probation!

Our Team
Omnea Life
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!
Omnea Benefits
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.
