Overview
About Omnea
Omnea is an AI-native procurement platform helping enterprises buy faster and more efficiently. Founded in 2022 by Ben Freeman and Ben Allen, it provides a single front door for purchasing requests, orchestrates stakeholder workflows, and centralises supplier data. Trusted by Spotify, MongoDB, Monzo, and Albertsons, Omnea has raised over $75 million from Insight Partners, Khosla Ventures, and Accel.
Why Join
Our Take
Omnea is one of the most exciting B2B SaaS companies in Europe right now. In just three years since its founding, it has raised over $75 million from world-class investors, grown revenue 5x in the past year alone, and more than tripled its headcount to 160+ people across London and New York. The company is now the 4th fastest-growing startup in Europe and has 10x'd ARR to double-digit millions in 18 months. What stands out on Glassdoor (4.8/5 from 17 reviews, 100% recommend) is how consistently employees praise the talent density, the pace of learning, and the calibre of colleagues. People describe working alongside ex-founders, former operators from Google, Meta, TikTok, McKinsey, Morgan Stanley, and top startups like Tessian, Pigment, and Pleo. Omnea's careers page states they interviewed more than 10,000 people for their first 50 hires, and the hiring bar remains exceptionally high. The company works in person three days a week (Tuesday to Thursday) in London and New York, which is not for everyone, but reflects their belief that early-stage collaboration benefits from face-to-face time. Equity is structured so every employee has a meaningful stake, and the Senior Software Engineer listing shows salary ranges of £80K–£120K with £25K–£50K in equity. The main thing to be aware of is that this is a genuinely fast-paced environment: multiple Glassdoor reviews note that this is not a 9-to-5, though they add that working alongside exceptional people on a mission that matters makes it worth it. If you want to be part of a category-defining company at one of the most exciting stages of its growth, surrounded by some of the strongest talent in European tech, Omnea is hard to beat.

Mission
Company Mission
Fix the most broken process in business.
Problem They Solve
Procurement is one of the most broken and least-loved processes in business. On average, it takes six months and 11+ stakeholders to complete a single purchase. The process spans finance, legal, security, IT, and compliance, yet it is still managed through fragmented tools, email threads, and spreadsheets. This leads to duplicative suppliers, missed renewals, shadow IT, and wasted spend. In a global procurement software market expected to reach $13.9 billion by 2030, the opportunity to fix this is enormous.
Who their customers are
Omnea serves enterprises across technology, financial services, media, retail, professional services, and cybersecurity. Customers range from high-growth tech companies such as Spotify, MongoDB, and Monzo to Fortune 500 and Global 500 enterprises such as Albertsons and Adecco Group, as well as financial institutions such as Hargreaves Lansdown and Moelis & Co.
Long-term vision
"Businesses hold a treasure trove of supplier data, but its value is locked away in spreadsheets, inboxes and siloed point solutions. Our AI SRM platform unlocks that data at every level of the organisation." — Ben Freeman
Team
What Employees Say
"What I love about working at Omnea is the mix of intensity and care. You’re trusted with a lot of ownership, but you’re also surrounded by people who genuinely want you to succeed. Being part of a team that strives for excellence and drives real impact is what makes it special."
Current Employee
Leadership
Omnea was co-founded and is led by Ben Freeman (CEO) and Ben Allen (CTO). Before Omnea, Freeman spent 5 years building Tessian from 5 to 200+ people and from $0 to $30M+ in ARR, raising $130M from Sequoia, Accel, and Balderton. He launched and led Tessian in the US, built the global go-to-market teams, and personally closed roughly half of the first $10M in ARR. He holds a BSc in Management from King's College London. Shortly after founding Omnea, Freeman reunited with former Tessian colleagues Sabrina Castiglione (CFO, formerly CFO of Tessian and COO of Pento) and Abhirukt Sapru (CCO, formerly CRO of Tessian). In early 2026, Omnea appointed Arie Barendrecht, founder of WiredScore, as US General Manager to lead the next phase of US growth.
Founder-led?
Yes, this company is still led by its founder(s).
Do I Feel Safe at Work?
Omnea has built a culture centred on what they call "talent density": the belief that great people grow faster and do their best work when surrounded by other great people. Values include grit and perseverance, customer-centric, craft at speed, positive mindset, solution focus, team before self, and game-changing. Glassdoor reviews (4.8/5, 100% recommend, 5.0 for culture and values) consistently describe the team as supportive, driven, and filled with some of the smartest and kindest people reviewers have worked with. The DEI rating on Glassdoor is 4.7/5. That said, the pace is high, and this is not a 9-to-5 environment, as multiple reviewers note. But the consistent message is that the quality of people and the shared mission make it worth it.
Work Reality
Onboarding
Omnea operates in person three days a week, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, at its offices in London and New York. The company is clear that, at this stage of their growth, in-person collaboration is essential. Expect to take on real ownership quickly: founding engineers were promoted to tech leads as quickly as one to two years, and the company emphasises learning by doing in a fast-moving environment.
What Employees Say
"You’re not just handed a playbook, you get to write it. I’ve experimented with new approaches without needing permission. It’s rare to find an environment where you’re trusted with that level of agency and supported by a team that wants to win together."

How Success is Measured
Omnea measures success by output and impact, not hours. Their value "craft at speed" captures the expectation of delivering high-quality work quickly. Engineers are product engineers who own problems end-to-end, from understanding the customer need to shipping and running the solution. The company's Commercial Associate programme has been particularly effective, with two-thirds of above-target revenue coming from elite contributors who started in that programme.
Communication Style
With offices in London and New York, Omnea keeps teams connected through messaging and video calls alongside their in-person days. The culture leans heavily toward direct, high-agency communication. The company also runs customer advisory boards and team events to bring people together.
Growth
Promotions
Omnea has grown from 2 founders to 160+ people in three years, and the pace is still accelerating. Founding engineers have been promoted to tech leads and engineering managers within two to three years. As the company expands rapidly across both London and New York, new roles and responsibilities are continually opening up. The Series B funding is being used to accelerate hiring, creating real scope for career-defining growth.
L&D Support
This is one of Omnea's strongest draws. You will work alongside people from Google, Meta, TikTok, McKinsey, Morgan Stanley, and a number of successful startups. The company invests in building AI-native products at the cutting edge of enterprise procurement, and engineers work with the latest LLM capabilities in production. The broader GTM team echoes this: "We want one year at Omnea to accelerate your career more than four years anywhere else."
Internal Mobility
As a rapidly growing company with expanding product lines (intake, sourcing, TPRM, AI SRM) and two offices, there is increasing scope for people to shift focus or take on new challenges as the company scales. There is no publicly documented internal mobility programme, but the pace of growth creates natural opportunities.
Average Tenure
Omnea is a very young company (founded in 2022), so tenure data is limited. That said, multiple founding engineers and early hires remain in leadership positions, which is a strong signal for a company at this stage.

- Glassdoor tells a remarkable story: 4.8/5 from 17 UK reviews, with 100% of employees recommending it to a friend and a perfect 5.0 for culture and values. Employees consistently describe the team as smart, kind, driven, and deeply mission-focused. The company prides itself on "talent density".

Insight Partners and Khosla Ventures led the $50 million Series B in September 2025, with Accel, Point Nine, First Round Capital, and Prosus joining.

- What does Omnea actually do?
- Omnea is an AI-native procurement orchestration platform. Employees submit purchasing requests in natural language through a single front door, and Omnea handles the rest: routing approvals to the right people across finance, legal, security, and IT, keeping supplier data and renewals in one place, and embedding third-party risk management throughout the process. It connects to existing systems like ERPs, spend management platforms, CLMs, and ticketing tools. Spotify, TeamViewer, and Hargreaves Lansdown are among the companies using it to move away from email chains and spreadsheets toward automated, governed workflows.
