Project manager CV template and example

Hiring managers for project roles want evidence that you deliver: projects landed on time and on budget, scope kept under control and stakeholders who stayed informed. They look for the size of what you ran in budget, team and duration, and for the methods you work in. Certifications like the PMP help you pass screening, but a concrete delivery record wins the interview.

How to write a project manager CV

1. Quantify each project with budget, team size, duration and outcome, for example '$3.2M ERP rollout, 18 people, delivered two weeks early'.
2. Show how you handled risk and change, such as a scope change you negotiated or a slipping project you brought back on track.
3. Name your methods and tools, like Agile, Scrum, Waterfall, Jira or MS Project, matched to the wording of the job ad.
4. Put PMP, PRINCE2 or Scrum certifications near the top, since many recruiters filter on them.
