I'm given role to communicate (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impart

'communicate' is the definition.
(imparting is a kind of communicating)

'i'm given role' is the wordplay.
'given' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'role' becomes 'part' ('part' can be a synonym of 'role').
'im'+'part'='IMPART'

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for impart that I've seen before include "Reveal, make information known" , "Give - convey" , "Reveal about armpit" , "17 down (anag)" , "Divulge, inform" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
