Full Job Description

People Projects Manager job at Cohere in New York

Cohere is recruiting a People Projects Manager to join the team in New York or Washington. Expect a hybrid setup: this is full-time work with regular office days. The salary range published with the job is $80,000 to $150,000 a year.

Here is the role as Cohere describes it.

Who are we?

Cohere is the leading security-first enterprise AI company. We build cutting-edge foundation AI models and end-to-end products that are designed to solve real-world business problems.

We’re training and deploying frontier models for enterprises who are building AI systems. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI and we are looking for folks that want to be part of that.

We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are all passionate about their craft.

We are a global technology company headquartered in Toronto with key offices in London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul. Join us!

Why This Role?

We're hiring a People Project Manager to join our HR PMO and help deliver an ambitious portfolio of HR programs, products, and initiatives as we scale globally.

This is not a business-as-usual project management role. We're a hypergrowth company building at speed, and our HR team is building alongside it. We're looking for someone who gets genuine energy from bringing order to chaos, creating structure where there isn't any yet, and getting important things shipped.

  • Hypergrowth, for real. Things move fast, priorities evolve, and there's always something meaningful to jump into. If you love pace, variety, and figuring things out as you go, you'll have a huge canvas here.

  • A chance to build. Our HR PMO is taking shape within a hugely ambitious HR team. You'll help create the workflows, rhythms, and tools we need to build a world-class function at scale.

  • Real ownership. Take projects from idea to delivery - creating structure, driving actions, managing dependencies, and keeping teams moving.

  • Global from day one. Work across our distributed HR team and with stakeholders around the world.

  • You'll thrive if you:

  • Create order from chaos: Turn fast-moving, ambiguous problems into clear plans and outcomes

  • Are relentlessly organized: Stay ahead of details, dependencies, decisions, and follow-ups

  • Love pace: Move quickly, adapt as things change, and keep momentum high

  • Build great workflows: Find simpler, smarter, more scalable ways to get things done

  • Collaborate brilliantly: Bring stakeholders together and create clarity across teams

  • Think and do: Build the plan, then roll up your sleeves to get it over the line

  • You'll help drive:

  • HR projects: Manage programs and initiatives across our global HR roadmap

  • Planning & delivery: Build plans, milestones, workstreams, and clear ownership

  • Cross-functional execution: Coordinate across HR, Finance, Legal, IT, and other teams

  • Project governance: Drive decisions, manage risks and dependencies, and keep stakeholders aligned

  • Better ways of working: Build repeatable workflows and tools that help HR execute at scale

  • We're looking for someone who:

  • 3+ years of experience: Project or program management in a fast-moving, high-growth organization

  • Is an excellent project manager: Can independently drive complex, multi-stakeholder projects from start to finish

  • Is hyper-organized: Exceptional attention to detail and strong systems for managing work

  • Builds, not just operates: Gets excited by creating something new rather than maintaining business as usual

  • Manages stakeholders well: Creates alignment and accountability without relying on authority

  • Communicates exceptionally: Produces crisp plans, updates, and documentation

  • Is pro-team: Collaborative, low-ego, and invested in making the whole team better

  • Location

    This is a global, remote role, working across our distributed HR organization and with stakeholders around the world.

    Full-Time Employees at Cohere enjoy these Perks:

  • A weekly lunch stipend of $75/Β£75 or equivalent in your local currency for lunch.

  • Full health and dental benefits, including a separate budget for mental health.

  • RRSP matching, 401K, Pension Scheme.

  • 100% Parental Leave top-up for up to 6 months, for either parent.

  • Annual enrichment benefits:

    Arts & culture, fitness/wellness, quality time, and a workspace improvement credit.

    Education & learning stipend for conferences, courses, and coaching.

  • 6 weeks of paid vacation (30 working days!)

  • Budget for traveling to other offices if you are remote, plus an annual company offsite.

  • How and Where We Work:

  • Cohere is remote-friendly, but we also have offices in Toronto, London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul with more opening soon.

  • For those in the office: a daily lunch program, plenty of snacks, and regular community and social events.

  • For those not near an office: a co-working benefit so you can work alongside others in your city.

  • Everyone receives a $500 home office stipend to set up your workspace properly.

  • If any of the above doesn’t line up exactly with your experience, we still encourage you to apply.

    We strive to create an inclusive work environment for all; we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities. Should you require any accommodations during the recruitment process, please submit an Accommodations Request Form, and we will work together to meet your needs.

    We may use AI-enabled tools to screen and assess applicants against the criteria for this position. This helps our recruiters identify potentially qualified candidates, but it doesn't limit the applications our recruiters may review or consider.
