Concurrent with this appointment, Frank Colletti has left his role as N-able's Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer.

A Proven Revenue Leader Built for the Channel

Russell Rosa joins N-able with a more than 25-year proven track record executing highly successful channel sales strategies and partner-driven go-to-market motions across global markets. Most recently, Rosa served as Chief Revenue Officer at Sumo Logic, where he led the global sales and partner organization across North America, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific, consistently delivering double-digit growth while building high-performing, collaborative teams. Prior to his CRO role, he served as Sumo Logic's Senior Vice President of Americas Sales, overseeing enterprise and public sector teams across North America, Canada, and Latin America.

Before Sumo Logic, Rosa built decades of progressive sales leadership at Cisco, Actifio, and VCE (a joint venture of VMware, Cisco, and EMC). At Actifio, he built worldwide sales channels and a go-to-market strategy from the ground up. Across these roles, Rosa developed a career defined by scaling channel programs and achieving strong growth. He holds a BSBA in Marketing and an MBA in Management from Suffolk University’s Sawyer Business School.

Rosa's appointment reflects a deliberate investment in N-able's channel-first commercial model. His commitment to customer outcomes and partner-driven growth is a natural fit for N-able's robust channel approach, serving businesses of all sizes through MSPs, VARs, and distributors worldwide.

John Pagliuca, Chief Executive Officer of N-able, said:

"Businesses around the world are navigating unprecedented complexity and risk, and the partners who serve them—whether MSPs, VARs, or distributors—need a trusted cybersecurity vendor that understands their business and the threat landscape firsthand. Russell has spent his career building exactly that kind of channel organization. His track record at scale in cybersecurity, combined with a genuine commitment to partner success, is precisely what N-able needs to accelerate our next phase of growth. We are thrilled to welcome him to the team."

Russell Rosa stated:

"The depth and diversity of N-able’s channel is incredible. MSPs, VARs, and distributors all play a role in how N-able protects customers ranging from small businesses to large enterprises, and navigating that complexity is what I’ve built my career around. My focus will be on strengthening those partner relationships, building programs that help the channel grow, and running a sales organization built for consistent, repeatable execution. I am thrilled to join the N-able team and look forward to getting to work!"
