What We Do
 
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. 
 
What It’s Like to Work at GoGuardian

We are an outcomes-focused learning company with a steadfast focus on improving learning environments, one classroom at a time. Working with us means joining a remote team of diverse, committed, mission-driven employees who are inspired by our vision, dedicated to our customers, and ready to roll up their sleeves. Guardians put their heads together to solve problems, learn together from experiments that fail, and stand together by their work with full accountability. We balance our diligence with an inclusive culture that invites everyone to bring their whole self to work. Join us and learn why “I love the people here” is one of the most frequent comments we hear from Guardians.

The Role

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.

What You'll Do

  • Partner Communications: Develop and manage communication rhythms for GoGuardian’s partner ecosystem, including newsletters, announcements, updates, and enablement messaging that keep partners informed and aligned with company priorities.
  • Enablement Content Development: Adapt and maintain partner-facing enablement materials such as sales decks, one-pagers, competitive positioning guides, product overviews, and quick reference materials.
  • Training & Learning Programs: Support the development and delivery of partner enablement programs including onboarding resources, training sessions, webinars, and recorded learning materials.
  • Cross-Functional Coordination: Collaborate with Channel Managers, Marketing, Product Marketing, and Sales Enablement to ensure messaging and resources remain aligned across internal and external audiences.
  • Internal Channel Enablement: Support internal teams by maintaining organized libraries of partner materials and ensuring teams have the resources needed to work with channel partners.
  • Operational Excellence: Help build repeatable processes for partner communications and enablement programs that support GoGuardian’s long-term channel growth strategy.
  • Continuous Improvement: Monitor partner engagement and feedback to continuously refine enablement programs and communication strategies.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
