IBM is currently executing an exciting transformation that places its ecosystem of partners at the center of the company’s growth strategy. That’s why IBM has strengthened its strategic partnerships with companies of all types – including value added distributors (VADs), value added resellers (VARs), independent software vendors (ISVs) and others in the “channel”. We’re looking for an external communications professional who wants to not only be part of IBM’s ecosystem transformation story, but will help create it. This individual will be responsible for articulating our ecosystem strategy and the role of strategic partners in driving our hybrid cloud and AI leadership. They will communicate partner news, milestones and success through proactive and consistent media relations and external content channels. This individual will work directly with senior executives and our partner communications leads to inform story angles, media strategy and messages, and will operate as part of a high-performing team consisting of IBMers and PR agency partners.
