Founding US Talent Lead - GTM

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.

What we're looking for

• Omnea is scaling fast after raising our Series B in September 2025, and hiring is one of the most critical levers we have. We're looking for a Founding Talent Lead (US GTM) to take end-to-end ownership of Go-to-Market hiring, building pipelines at scale, and establishing the foundations of our US talent function.
• You'll report directly to our Head of Talent and own the complete hiring cycle for GTM roles, from strategic sourcing and outreach, through pipeline development, to candidate close. In year one, you'll focus relentlessly on building deep, qualified pipelines and meeting our hiring targets. As we scale, you'll move into defining process, coaching hiring managers, and shaping how we scale our talent function across the team.
• We're building a very different kind of talent function, one focused on quality and care rather than volume and speed. This role is for someone who wants real ownership, to be embedded with senior leaders, and to help shape Omnea's team as we scale from the US market.
• What can you expect?
• Year one is pipeline-focused.
• You'll spend significant time mapping talent markets, running sourcing campaigns, managing outreach at scale, and building a personal network of top-tier GTM talent. You'll become the person who knows the best Sales, Customer Success, and Growth leaders in the market.
• You'll meet challenging hiring targets for GTM roles while maintaining our bar for top 1% talent. You'll be hands-on in screening, initial conversations, and candidate management. This isn't a desk role.
• You'll partner directly with GTM leadership to shape role specs, define success profiles, and stay aligned on hiring needs. You'll have real influence over who we hire and how we build the team.
• Once pipelines are firing, you'll shift into defining hiring process, coaching interviewers, and building scalable systems. You'll elevate our bar by refining scorecards, obsessing over what "great" looks like, and ensuring consistency across hiring.
• You'll craft compelling outreach and messaging campaigns like a salesperson. You'll cut through noise to engage passive candidates with authentic, personalized messaging that resonates.
• You'll build and nurture a personal network of top GTM talent through community involvement and becoming known as the go-to person for exceptional GTM hires.
