About the role We're hiring a Marketing Chief of Staff to keep Cohere's marketing org moving at full speed without coming apart at the seams. You'll report to the VP of Brand and work across the whole function: brand, editorial, design, product marketing, demand generation, and integrated marketing. This is not a strategy-only role, and it isn't a glorified project-management seat either. In any given quarter the org is shipping product launches, field events, partner campaigns, and demand programs in parallel, often across regions and time zones. That pace is the reason the role exists. Your job is to make sure the right work wins when everything feels urgent, that plans turn into shipped work, and that the VP of Brand and the leadership team spend their time leading instead of firefighting. Be clear-eyed about the shape of the work. A lot of it is operational: the planning calendar, the budget, the headcount plan, the weekly business reviews, the cross-functional handoffs that break when nobody owns them. The grind is the job. You should want that part, not tolerate it. One boundary worth naming up front. Marketing Ops owns th
