Job description

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.

• Execute an enterprise B2B communications strategy that translates company-wide priorities into a program with clear audiences, narratives and outcomes for global customers and partners.

• Establish relationships with communications teams at partner and customer companies

• Lead campaigns across earned and owned channels that deepen understanding of Cohere's technology, build trust, and demonstrate business value

• Create a robust library of customer, partner and ecosystem stories and testimonials that show real impact across markets and priority industries.

• Shape narratives and messaging that turn complex technology and product developments into clear, compelling stories for business audiences

• Lead communications for launches, executive moments and tentpole events, ensuring strong coordination across teams.

• Cultivate trusted relationships with leading business, technology, trade, and new media

• Advise and prepare senior spokespeople for media, speaking and stakeholder opportunities, including briefing materials and talking points

• Partner closely with regional and global teams to set clear ways of working, share insight and make sure local perspectives shape overall strategy.

• Spot emerging opportunities and reputational risks early, offering sound counsel and helping the team respond quickly and confidently.

• Manage agency partners, holding a high bar for strategic thinking, creativity and execution.

• Support an ambitious, collaborative and low-ego culture where people are comfortable being flexible and scrappy.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in communications, ideally in AI, enterprise software, or developer-focused environments
