Product Ops
Role Summary
Join Omnea as Product Ops, where you will enhance productivity in a fast-growing tech startup focused on streamlining procurement.
About the Organisation
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.

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.
- You've spent 2 to 3 years in product operations, product management, business operations, strategy and ops, consulting or a chief-of-staff role, ideally in B2B SaaS. The strongest candidates will have done more than one of those, and will have built the systems they ran rather than inherited them.
- AI is already how you work. Not something you're planning to get to. You use it instinctively, and more usefully, you know how to design systems that leverage it for other people. You've built agents, automations or internal tools that others adopted and kept using. You can get to a working prototype without waiting for engineering.
- You're comfortable with data. You can pull it, interrogate it and turn it into something a PM will act on.
- You're a systems thinker. You know the difference between a process problem and a structural one, and when to optimise versus when to redesign.
- You write well. You can take a roadmap, a release, or a pile of signals from across the business and make it land with people who didn't build it.
- You can hold an event with a lot of moving parts and senior people in it, and land it.
- You have experience in a start up or scale-up environment.
- You have a track record of top performance, in academia or work or both.
Minimum Requirements
This is the first dedicated Product Operations hire at Omnea. You'll report to our VP Product.
You'll live at the intersection of product and AI. You'll build the operational layer a fast-growing product team needs: the tool stack, the launch rhythm, our top-level metrics, early access programmes, the comms.
Treat the product org as your user. Define the problem, build the thing, get people using it, then check whether it made anyone faster. If it didn't, kill it and try something else.
We want a structured operator with low ego and a builder's instinct. You'd rather automate a problem than write a process doc about it. You'll be hands-on — wiring up integrations, writing Claude skills, pulling data, shipping dashboards.
