Job description

Our Mission

Omnea is the agentic operating system for procurement. Procurement touches every pound a business spends, yet requests still stall for weeks and approvals get lost in inboxes. Our AI‑first platform changes that: our agents capture requests, route approvals, onboard suppliers, flag risk and track every renewal, while anyone in the business can ask a question and get an answer grounded in their own company’s data. Buying becomes painless for everyone, procurement gets a seat at the table, and our customers have saved more than 100,000 hours of manual work so far.

Companies like Spotify, PayPal, T. Rowe Price, JustEat, Adyen and S&P Global run procurement on Omnea. We’re backed by $75M from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners and Accel, and we’ve been named the UK’s number one startup in the Startups 100, ranked 11th on Sifted’s 2026 list of Europe’s fastest‑growing companies, and recognised as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies.

Talent density matters more to us than almost anything else. We keep the bar high in every team, so everyone here has real ownership and real impact. Our team is full of former founders and operators who’ve scaled unicorns, and we’re looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers alongside them.

The Role

AI is changing what it means to deploy enterprise software. Configuring a customer’s procurement workflows used to mean weeks of manual setup, integration by integration, edge case by edge case. Increasingly, that first‑draft build work can be directed rather than done by hand: AI agents can generate workflow configurations, draft integration mappings, and produce the initial pass on a customer’s setup.

The job shifts with it. Instead of building every workflow yourself, you specify exactly what needs to exist, direct AI to build it, and apply the judgement AI can’t: is this the right configuration for this customer’s approval policy, will Legal and Finance actually sign off on it, does it hold up once real spend starts flowing through it. In practice, that might mean catching that the approval chain AI just drafted works perfectly for HQ, but misses a regional delegation‑of‑authority rule that would fail an audit in the customer’s APAC entity.

As Omnea’s AI Solutions Lead, you own deployment of the Omnea platform end to end – typically running 3‑5 enterprise deployments concurrently – for some of Europe’s most recognisable companies. You advise customers on the best‑fit configuration, direct AI‑assisted build work to get there fast, and validate every output against what the customer actually needs. You’ll also deal with the politics that come with every enterprise rollout: the Legal team wanting one more sign‑off, the Finance stakeholder who doesn’t trust the new approval flow, the exec sponsor who’s gone quiet. You become the internal voice of the customer, and you’re judged on outcomes you can point to: time to launch, post‑go‑live CSAT, and whether that customer becomes a case study or reference.

This is an early hire on Omnea’s customer team, working directly with our sales, customer, product, and engineering leadership. The future shape of the role is yours to define!

What You’ll Do

• Discover and design:
  Run discovery with customer stakeholders across Procurement, Finance, Legal, and IT, and translate their process into an Omnea configuration
  Design the target workflow: approval chains, routing logic, integrations, and the edge cases that make procurement hard
  On a deployment with a dozen‑plus integrations, you own the sequencing – what has to land first, what blocks what – and the harder calls underneath it: which system is the source of truth for a given entity, and how records reconcile when two systems key that entity differently
  Define success criteria and a realistic path to go‑live with the customer’s project sponsor
• Build with AI, not instead of it:
  You’re not just directing AI to draft your own deliverables faster – you’re configuring the specialised agents Omnea’s customers rely on every day: an intake agent that knows how to ask a procurement analyst the right follow‑up question, a risk agent that flags what actually matters to this customer’s Legal team
  The real leverage comes from chaining agents together – an intake agent that hands clean, structured requests to a risk agent, which in turn routes into approvals with the right context already attached. You design how those agents work as a system, not just individually
  Writing a spec for one agent is a skill. Writing one that holds up across a chain of agents – where one agent’s output becomes another’s input – is the actual bar here
  Validate every AI‑generated output against the customer’s actual process, policy, and edge cases before anything ships
  Handle what AI can’t: judgement calls on ambiguous requirements, custom logic, and anything that needs a human read on internal politics
• Deploy and prove value:
