Commercial Associate
Summary
You’ll build enterprise sales pipelines from scratch for an AI-driven procurement platform, starting with outbound outreach and live deal support before quickly moving into a full quota-carrying role.
Our Mission
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.

About the role
The Commercial Associate (CA) role is part of our flagship GTM programme, designed to build the next generation of enterprise sellers and founders. From day one you own a territory, work live deals, and drive real revenue. Most people are promoted into a closing role within 9–12 months – the fastest in 6.
We treat sales as a craft. Selling is building. Like law, medicine, or finance, great sellers are made through apprenticeship: learning the fundamentals alongside people who've mastered them, while building relationships that compound over a career.
Challenges you'll tackle
Our goal is for you to start closing enterprise deals as quickly as possible. In this role you will:
Get a territory – on day one you own a market. Alongside a senior sales leader, you'll prioritise accounts, research the landscape, and build a strategy to win new business.
Learn how to pitch – in your first month you'll go through a bootcamp on how to sell, position, and close, taught by the top sellers in the business.
Build relationships – embed yourself in your market by running targeted events, hosting dinners, and building a lasting network of C-suite executives.
Win new business – once ramped, you'll own a qualified deals target and support senior leaders on late-stage deals.
Own a revenue line – as soon as you're ready, you'll carry a full revenue target and double your payout.
About you
You've outperformed in a high-calibre environment before
You're naturally competitive and drawn to hard things – a startup, a founding journey, competitive sport, a demanding degree
You're a natural at building relationships and communities
You want to move as fast as possible
