About this template
Aurora is the most popular template for marketing, product, and growth professionals on CVEdge. The two-column layout with skill chips gives your resume the visual energy that creative and growth roles expect, while the structured layout maintains the ATS readability that automated screening requires.
The skills section uses coloured chip tags — perfect for marketing roles where you need to show fluency across channels (SEO, paid social, email, analytics) at a glance. Hiring managers for marketing roles spend 7 seconds on a first scan; Aurora makes those 7 seconds count.
The avatar option works well for marketing professionals — personal branding is part of the role, and a professional photo adds approachability without looking out of place. For brand and content roles, the visual signal Aurora sends is exactly right: creative but organised.
Pair Aurora with CVEdge's Job Match tool — paste the job description and see which of your marketing keywords need to be added.

Why this template works for marketing
Aurora uses a two-column structure with chip-styled skill groupings, which suits marketing CVs specifically: marketers accumulate long lists of channels, platforms and tools that read badly as prose but scan well as chips. It keeps those visible without spending main-column space on them.
Recommended section order
- 1Header: contact, title, summary
- 2Main: experience, campaigns
- 3Side: channels, tools, certifications
Campaign work deserves separation from employment history — a marketer's case is usually made by specific campaigns and their numbers rather than by the sequence of job titles.
What to put where
Summary
Name your channel specialism and the metric you own. 'Performance marketer, paid social and search, £2M annual budget, 3.1x blended ROAS' establishes everything in one line.
Experience
Every bullet needs a number — spend managed, CAC, ROAS, conversion rate, pipeline generated. Marketing is one of the most quantifiable disciplines and unmeasured bullets are conspicuous.
Campaigns
Two or three with objective, budget, channel mix and result. This is where range shows in a way employment history alone cannot.
Channels & tools (side)
Chips work well here — Meta, Google Ads, HubSpot, GA4, Klaviyo. Group by function rather than listing alphabetically.
Common mistakes with this template
- Vanity metrics — impressions and reach — where the reader wants efficiency and revenue.
- Claiming campaign results from a large team without stating your specific role.
- Tool lists as the main qualification; every marketer lists the same platforms.
- No budget scale anywhere, which makes the level you operate at impossible to judge.
When to choose something else
Applications through strict corporate portals where two-column parsing is a risk will usually be better served by the single-column Bold Accent layout.
Questions about this template
Is Aurora template good for marketing roles?+
Aurora is specifically popular with marketing, growth, and PM professionals. The chip-based skills section showcases channel expertise (SEO, paid, email, analytics) at a glance.
Does Aurora work for senior marketing roles?+
Yes — Aurora scales well from associate to VP level. Senior marketers use it to show strategic breadth alongside channel depth. The layout accommodates 8–10 years of experience without feeling crowded.
What metrics should a marketing resume show?+
Efficiency and revenue rather than volume. Budget managed, customer acquisition cost, return on ad spend, conversion rate, pipeline or revenue attributed, retention and lifecycle metrics. Impressions, reach and follower counts are weak on their own because they do not demonstrate commercial judgement. The strongest marketing bullets pair a result with the spend behind it — a 40% lift on a £2M budget is a different achievement to the same lift on £20k.
How do I show campaign results I did not solely own?+
State your specific contribution alongside the team outcome, and be straightforward about it. 'Owned paid social within a £2M integrated campaign; the channel delivered 3.4x ROAS against a 2.5x target' is credible and verifiable. Claiming an entire campaign's results when you ran one channel is the fastest way to lose credibility in an interview, because the follow-up questions expose it immediately.
