In addition to all the points raised about what the RM does I would also recommend emphasising the very considerable financial responsibility. Cross refer this to all the discussions on business cases.
 
This is a difficult area as the 'budget' is of course hidden in the service areas and not under the direct control of the RM but when evaluating the job we certainly need to push that a good RM can save the authority as a whole hundreds of thousands per annum (or more).

In addition it is worth downloading (which is free as a PDF) ARMA's Records and information management core competencies available at http://www.arma.org/bookstore/productdetail.cfm?ProductID=2277. This document does map out competency levels progressing through difference professional/management levels and can be applied within local government.
 
The SoA has previously published salary surveys from its own ARC advertisements.
