Enterprise B2B Communications Manager

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!

Role Overview

Cohere is built on a simple advantage: AI that actually deploys at production-scale. With enterprise-ready products, a CEO who co-authored the Transformer Paper that launched modern AI, and the newly combined strength of Aleph Alpha, we’re becoming the transatlantic leader in sovereign AI for enterprises and governments. A company with this much momentum needs a storytelling engine to match, and this role is part of the team building it.

Reporting to the Director of Corporate Communication, the Enterprise B2B Communications Manager will earn the attention and trust of business audiences by showing, through real customer stories, how organizations use Cohere to change the way they work, serve their customers, and create value. You’ll translate Cohere’s global priorities into stories that resonate with what customers and partners care about, pairing sharp strategy with consistently strong execution.

You’ll partner closely with GTM, marketing, product, legal, government affairs, and sales to make it happen.
