RSA is seeking a channel-first communications leader to own global channel communications and manage RSA's core communication forums — including the RSA Partner Portal — across the Americas & International global audiences. This is a role for a highly self-motivated builder, someone who thrives in a greenfield environment, is energized by the opportunity to define the communications framework from scratch, and takes genuine ownership of outcomes without waiting to be directed.
This role reports to the Head of Channel Growth Operations within the marketing and growth organisation and exists to solve a gap consistently voiced by the channel community: partners do not clearly understand what RSA does, why RSA wins, and how to strategically partner with RSA.
You will translate RSA strategy, product marketing, and channel priorities into clear, consistent partner communications delivered through RSA's communication forums — most notably the RSA Partner Portal, partner newsletters, webinars, and Partner Councils. You will own the Global Channel Communications strategy and calendar, and will collaborate closely with the Global Channel Enablement & Marketing teams to ensure enablement content, programs, and releases are communicated clearly and land on time with partners.
Critically, this person is the ‘voice of the channel’— representing partner and channel perspective in marketing strategy, planning, and campaigns, and ensuring the channel community's needs and feedback shape marketing decisions rather than being addressed after the fact.
This is a channel communications and partner engagement role tied to measurable outcomes.
Principal Responsibilities
- Own the partner-facing “Why RSA” story and channel messaging
- Act as the Voice of the Channel – representing partner and distributor perspective, needs, and feedback in marketing strategy, planning, and campaign development.
- Build and maintain RSA’s partner-facing messaging architecture, including “Why RSA,” category value, differentiation, competitive positioning, case studies, and proof points.
- Translate product marketing and enablement content into partner-facing communications, with guidance by partner type (reseller, distributor), by motion (net-new, expansion, renewal), and by ICP buyer persona.
- Develop concise partner talk tracks, elevator pitches, and objection-handling messaging, aligned across channel sales, distribution, and field teams based on field and internal feedback.
- Global channel communications engine
- Own the global channel communications strategy and calendar, coordinating program updates, launches, enablement releases, and Partner Portal messaging into a consistent cadence.
- Create partner communications that drive clarity and action, including newsletters, launch kits, Partner Portal updates, webinars, and distributor communications.
- Build frictionless selling guides and FAQs that help partners understand and act on key updates.
- Manage RSA's communication forums — including the RSA Partner Portal
- Own and manage RSA’s partner-facing communication forums, with the RSA Partner Portal as the primary channel and single source of truth for partner communications.
- Manage Partner Portal content governance — what gets published, when, and how it is organised — in partnership with Partner Operations and PRM owners.
- Run and manage other partner communication forums (webinars, distributor briefings, partner newsletters, community/PRM discussion channels) to keep partners informed and engaged.
- Ensure content flowing through these forums is accurate, current, and consistent by working closely with the Global Channel Enablement, Product Marketing, and Channel Sales teams.
- Partner onboarding and lifecycle communications
- Build and run partner onboarding and activation communications that move partners from signed to selling faster.
- Create onboarding communications and partner readiness journeys (30/60/90 day experience), coordinating with the Global Channel Enablement team on quick-start kits, training paths, and first-deal support guidance.
- Develop lifecycle communications for quarterly readiness, launches, program requirements, and renewal readiness.
- Collaborate with Global Channel Enablement
- Partner closely with the Global Channel Enablement team so enablement assets, toolkits, and training are communicated clearly and reach partners through the right forums at the right time.
- Align the communications calendar with the enablement roadmap to avoid conflicting or duplicated messaging.
- Coordinate Partner Council content and messaging. Use councils to validate messaging, identify friction, gather feedback, prioritise communication needs, strengthen partner loyalty, and capture the voice of the partner community.
- Act as the communications and Partner Portal point of contact for enablement launches, ensuring a consistent partner experience across both functions.
- Measurement and operational rigor
- Define and report KPIs that connect communications and forum engagement to business outcomes.
- Build a quarterly operating cadence with channel leadership to review insights, identify gaps, and prioritise communications improvements.
