Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

The photo sits beside the header block as a vertical portrait with rounded corners.

Layout

How the Management Split template is built

Knowing how information sits on the page before you pick a template directly affects how your application gets read.

Luxury minimal

Very wide margins, large name typography and few sections. The page carries as little as possible and everything left breathes. For profiles with little content but high quality.

Typography

Body and headings share one sans-serif family, reading equally cleanly on screen and in print.

Section headings

Section headings are distinguished by weight alone, leaving no decorative element on the page.

Use of colour

Colour appears only in fine rules and headings; the rest of the page stays white.

Density

Line spacing is balanced — the middle ground between readability and fit for most applications.

How skills are presented

Skills are listed on one line separated by dots. It is the safest form for keyword matching.

When not to choose this template

  • Applications where a visual portfolio is expected in the document itself
  • Applications where the employer mandates its own template
  • Very long career histories running past three pages

You can compare the alternatives side by side in the template comparison table.

Frequently asked questions

About the Management Split template

Is the Management Split template ATS-friendly?

ATS compatibility for this template is rated “very good”. Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

Does the Management Split template include a photo?

The photo sits beside the header block as a vertical portrait with rounded corners. A photo is not required: turn off “Show photo on resume” in the editor and the area is removed, with the page falling back to its photo-free layout.

Can I change template later?

Yes. The template is only a presentation layer; what you write is stored separately and carries over intact when you switch.

Will the PDF match this preview?

Yes. The preview and the PDF come from the same component: A4 (210×297 mm), accented characters and a selectable text layer are all preserved.

Can I change the colour in the Management Split template?

Yes. The accent colour control in the editor applies to this template too — pick any of the six presets.
