Who this suits

A safe default for business & management roles and for any application going through a large employer's careers portal, where the first reader is software rather than a person.

How it handles ATS parsing

Single column with a linear reading order, conventional section headings, and no layout tables. Contact details sit in the body text rather than a page footer, because footer content lives outside the text layer and many parsers drop it entirely.

What you can change

Accent colour, font body, font heading, spacing, scale, line, section order, which sections appear, page size (A4 or Letter), and every word of the text. Nothing here is locked behind a payment.

How to write a project manager's CV in Charter

Project management CVs are read for scale and control: budget, team, duration, and whether you delivered on time. Charter's structured header band leaves room for methodology, budget and governance detail.

Sections, in this order

  1. Professional summary
  2. Certifications — for example PMP, PRINCE2 or Scrum
  3. Key projects — budget, team size, duration and outcome
  4. Experience
  5. Methods and tools
  6. Education
