People Project Manager in Toronto

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’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.

You will 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:

• Has 3+ years of experience in 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

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/£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.

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.

We strive to create an inclusive work environment for all; we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities.
