Mission The way businesses buy software and services 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 (Intake), managing the necessary approvals for the purchase to be made (Approvals Engine), and automating all renewals management & supplier risk assessments. And Omnea gives finance & procurement leaders visibility into how money is being spent. Given the current market downturn & increased focus on capital efficiency, there has never been a more vital time for businesses to use Omnea and get control of their spend. This is Spend Control 2.0 - built for tougher times. We are looking for an experienced & exceptional product leader to be our Head of Product. You will own how we shape and ship our product, from scoping features all the way to crafting the longer term product strategy, and later building out our product function as we scale. You'll be joining us at the most exciting possible time. We raised an initial $5m from two tier 1 VCs & 30+ renowned founders, and we've spent the past 18 months building & deploying our platform to many of the greatest tech companies out there (Lookout, McAfee, Onfido, Typeform, Tractable, etc.), all whilst managing to stay lean & operate efficiently. We've built an incredible & passionate team - every member was a top performer at their previous business (Cazoo, Primer, Freetrade 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.). Now we need someone to own everything 'Product', ensuring we remain a product-led business. There are no limits to this role, and we expect this person to be a future leader at Omnea and to help us scale into one of Europe's leading tech businesses. Co-Founder & CEO What can you expect? You'll be the first product hire and the product leader at one of Europe's fastest growing early-stage B2B SaaS companies, working alongside an experienced team who have done this before and worked with the best companies & investors out there. Shape the product Customer focus: We have amazing customers who love our product & are highly invested in the future of Omnea's platform. You will put our customers at the centre of all product discussions, building a deep understanding of their needs Product strategy & vision: Once you're ramped in the role, you will be the key decision-maker, working with our CEO to decide what we build next. You'll help to drive the company strategy with your insights from Customers and the Customer & Sales teams, evaluating which modules & features are most impactful as we expand our ICP and grow into new markets Commercial focus: You will work closely with our Sales & Customer leaders to help them sell, deploy, and support the product as we scale. You'll also work on our initial product marketing strategy, communicating product updates internally & externally Ship the product Product scoping: You'll ensure that everything we build is well-scoped and has clearly defined requirements. You'll keep a keen eye on business value and will constantly make trade-offs when prioritising growth vs improvements, clearly articulating your research, opinions and decision-making process Product process: You'll be responsible for the entire product development lifecycle from discovery to launch, ensuring we are delivering high-quality features on time. This includes working closely with our Engineering Leaders in managing, prioritising and maintaining the product backlog. You'll also define & own our product success metrics Scaling the function: You'll set the groundwork for the expansion of the product function, and as we scale, you'll build out the team Keep everyone aligned & ensure we are a 'product-led' company: You'll collaborate closely with everyone to bring transparency and clarity to our product roadmap, both the 'now' and our future vision. You'll ensure alignment across the org and drive accountability for how we deliver our next product iterations 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.

Mission The way businesses buy software and services 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 (Intake), managing the necessary approvals for the purchase to be made (Approvals Engine), and automating all renewals management & supplier risk assessments. And Omnea gives finance & procurement leaders visibility into how money is being spent. Given the current market downturn & increased focus on capital efficiency, there has never been a more vital time for businesses to use Omnea and get control of their spend. This is Spend Control 2.0 - built for tougher times. We are looking for an experienced & exceptional product leader to be our Head of Product. You will own how we shape and ship our product, from scoping features all the way to crafting the longer term product strategy, and later building out our product function as we scale. You'll be joining us at the most exciting possible time. We raised an initial $5m from two tier 1 VCs & 30+ renowned founders, and we've spent the past 18 months building & deploying our platform to many of the greatest tech companies out there (Lookout, McAfee, Onfido, Typeform, Tractable, etc.), all whilst managing to stay lean & operate efficiently. We've built an incredible & passionate team - every member was a top performer at their previous business (Cazoo, Primer, Freetrade 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.). Now we need someone to own everything 'Product', ensuring we remain a product-led business. There are no limits to this role, and we expect this person to be a future leader at Omnea and to help us scale into one of Europe's leading tech businesses. Co-Founder & CEO What can you expect? You'll be the first product hire and the product leader at one of Europe's fastest growing early-stage B2B SaaS companies, working alongside an experienced team who have done this before and worked with the best companies & investors out there. Shape the product Customer focus: We have amazing customers who love our product & are highly invested in the future of Omnea's platform. You will put our customers at the centre of all product discussions, building a deep understanding of their needs Product strategy & vision: Once you're ramped in the role, you will be the key decision-maker, working with our CEO to decide what we build next. You'll help to drive the company strategy with your insights from Customers and the Customer & Sales teams, evaluating which modules & features are most impactful as we expand our ICP and grow into new markets Commercial focus: You will work closely with our Sales & Customer leaders to help them sell, deploy, and support the product as we scale. You'll also work on our initial product marketing strategy, communicating product updates internally & externally Ship the product Product scoping: You'll ensure that everything we build is well-scoped and has clearly defined requirements. You'll keep a keen eye on business value and will constantly make trade-offs when prioritising growth vs improvements, clearly articulating your research, opinions and decision-making process Product process: You'll be responsible for the entire product development lifecycle from discovery to launch, ensuring we are delivering high-quality features on time. This includes working closely with our Engineering Leaders in managing, prioritising and maintaining the product backlog. You'll also define & own our product success metrics Scaling the function: You'll set the groundwork for the expansion of the product function, and as we scale, you'll build out the team Keep everyone aligned & ensure we are a 'product-led' company: You'll collaborate closely with everyone to bring transparency and clarity to our product roadmap, both the 'now' and our future vision. You'll ensure alignment across the org and drive accountability for how we deliver our next product iterations 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.
