Senior Manager, Talent Development

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! ========================== 📌 This is an active role, but we're currently building our talent pipeline so we're ready to move quickly once we have capacity to begin interviewing. At this stage, we're reviewing and shortlisting applications rather than scheduling interviews, so we aren't able to provide individual timelines or application status updates. If you're selected to move forward, we'll reach out as soon as we're ready to begin the interview process. To help us keep the process fair and efficient, we kindly ask that you don't follow up with the hiring team directly, as we won't have any additional updates to share until interviews begin. Thank you for your patience—we're looking forward to connecting with you when the process gets underway. ========================== Why This Role? We're hiring our first Senior Manager, Talent Development to help define how Cohere develops managers, leaders, and talent as we scale. This is a rare opportunity to own and shape a function from the ground up. Rather than inheriting a mature learning organization, you'll design the programs, frameworks, and ways of working that help one of the world's leading AI companies grow its people. You'll work directly with the Head of HR to shape the Talent Development function from the ground up. This is a high-trust, high-autonomy role with significant influence across the People team and the wider business. You'll partner closely with HR Business Partners and senior leaders to build the capabilities the organization needs as Cohere scales.…
