[5] Damet began his managerial career at age 16 with the sixth-tier club Beaune FC, where he spent five years as the under-13 coach.

[6] In March 2017, he left Montreal to join FC Cincinnati in the United Soccer League as an assistant coach.

[5] On 7 May 2019, Cincinnati head coach Alan Koch was fired after starting the season with just 8 points through 11 games and, according to club president Jeff Berding, "a series of recent issues and a team culture that had deteriorated".

[7] As a result, Damet was named interim head coach while an international search was undertaken for a permanent replacement.

Damet's tenure as interim coach ended after 15 matches when FC Cincinnati announced the hiring of Ron Jans on 4 August.
