What Cognite is: Relentless to achieve

Cognite operates at the forefront of industrial digitalization, building AI, and data solutions that solve the world’s hardest, highest-impact problems. With unmatched industrial heritage and a comprehensive suite of AI capabilities, including low-code AI agents, Cognite accelerates the digital transformation to drive operational improvements.

We thrive in challenges. We challenge assumptions. We execute with speed and ownership. If you view obstacles as signals to step forward - not backwards - you’ll feel right at home here.

Our Moonshot is bold: Unlock $100B in customer value by 2035, and redefine how global industry works. Join us in this venture where AI and data meet ingenuity, and together, we will forge the path to a smarter, more connected industrial future.

How you’ll demonstrate Ownership

At Cognite, we're transforming the world's most asset-intensive industries through Industrial AI. Our customers rely on us to turn complex industrial data into meaningful business outcomes—and this is where you come in.

We're looking for a Project Manager who enjoys solving complex challenges, takes ownership of outcomes, and is motivated by delivering measurable value. This role goes beyond managing timelines; you'll lead transformational AI implementation projects that help some of the world's largest industrial organisations modernise the way they operate.

From contract signing through deployment and value realisation, you'll partner with customers and cross-functional teams to deliver successful projects that create lasting business impact.

The Impact you bring to Cognite

As the Project Manager, you'll be accountable for the successful delivery of complex Industrial AI implementation projects by:

  • Leading end-to-end project delivery from kickoff through deployment, adoption, and value realisation.
  • Owning project scope, schedule, budget, quality, customer outcomes, and commercial performance.
  • Collaborating with Solution Architects, Software Engineers, Data Scientists, Product teams, and Customer Success to deliver high-quality solutions.
  • Translating customer objectives into measurable success metrics and facilitating Value Realisation Workshops to demonstrate business impact.
  • Managing project financials, including forecasting, revenue recognition, profitability, cost management, and reporting.
  • Building trusted relationships with customer stakeholders, leading steering committees, and providing clear communication throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Identifying and managing risks, dependencies, and scope changes while ensuring appropriate governance and transparency.
  • Supporting customer adoption through change management, enablement, and training while recognising opportunities to expand customer value.
  • Contributing to the continuous improvement of delivery practices by applying Cognite's PMO methodologies, playbooks, and lessons learned.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
