Channel Account Manager - Communications and Enablement

GoGuardian

8d • $100,000 - $120,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

At GoGuardian, we’re helping build a future where all learners are ready and inspired to solve the world’s greatest challenges. Our award-winning system of learning solutions is purpose-built for K-12 and trusted by school leaders to promote effective teaching and equitable engagement while helping empower educators to keep students safe.
We are looking for an organized and highly effective communicator to support GoGuardian’s growing channel partner ecosystem through clear, consistent, and impactful communications and enablement programs. This is a dedicated channel-facing role, focused on partner readiness and sales enablement, and is distinct from broader, end-customer marketing efforts.
This role will play a critical part in ensuring our partners have the information, tools, and resources they need to successfully position and sell GoGuardian solutions. The Channel Communications & Enablement Specialist will help design and execute partner-facing communications, create enablement materials, and support the ongoing development of partner training and engagement initiatives.
You will work closely with Channel Account Managers, Marketing, Sales Enablement, and Sales leadership to ensure that partner messaging, programs, and enablement resources are delivered clearly and consistently and are adapted specifically for the channel sales motion.
Success in this role will be measured by the effectiveness of partner communications, the quality of enablement resources, and the overall engagement and readiness of GoGuardian’s partner ecosystem.
This role is designated as a hybrid position and requires the candidate to be local to the Chicagoland area. The expectation is to work from the CDW offices in downtown Chicago a minimum of two days per week.
