Built from your own CV, not a theme
Send us one Word CV your team already uses. We rebuild it field by field: logo, fonts, colours, tables, headers and footers. Tweak it as often as you like while you trial.
A blind version of every template, free
Switch any CV to anonymous in one click. Names, contact details and photos come out, and employer names can be swapped for neutral descriptions before it goes to a client.
Your consultant details on every CV
Recruiter name, email, phone and your agency footer are added automatically, and empty sections drop out, so clients get a clean page that tells them who to call.
One template per client or brand
Keep a different layout for each client, region or sub-brand and switch before you download. Unlimited team members, so everyone uses the same approved templates.

What is a custom branded CV template?
A custom branded CV template is the layout a recruitment agency uses for every candidate CV it sends to clients: its logo and letterhead, fonts and colours, section order, a candidate profile table with recruiter details, and a footer with its terms or confidentiality notice. It makes every shortlist look like it came from one professional firm, and keeps the agency as the client's point of contact.
With CVFormatter you don't design that template in a builder. You send one CV in Word, formatted the way your clients already know it, and the CVFormatter team builds it for you. After that, every CV or resume your team uploads, whether a PDF, Word file, scan or LinkedIn profile, is formatted into that template automatically, in seconds.
Custom CV template FAQs
- What is a custom CV template on CVFormatter?
- A custom CV template on CVFormatter is your agency's own CV layout, built by the CVFormatter team from a sample Word CV you send. Once it is live, CVFormatter formats every candidate CV and resume your team uploads into that template automatically, as an editable Word file, a PDF or a client share link.
- Is the first CVFormatter template really free?
- Yes. CVFormatter builds your first branded CV template free, with unlimited tweaks during your trial, and no credit card is required. Anonymous versions of your templates are also free. Each additional template is a one-off US$49 set-up fee.
- Why does CVFormatter charge $49 for additional templates?
- Because the CVFormatter team builds every template for you from your own Word sample, rather than handing your team a self-serve builder. The US$49 is a one-off set-up fee per template, not a subscription, and it covers recreating details such as tables, cover pages, photo boxes, two-column layouts and footer disclaimers. There is no monthly fee to keep a template and no per-seat fee for your team.
- What do we need to send CVFormatter to build our template?
- Just one CV in Word, formatted exactly the way you send CVs to clients. That sample shows CVFormatter your logo, fonts, colours, spacing, section order, recruiter fields and footer, so you don't need to write a design brief or a field-mapping document.
- What if our agency doesn't have a CV template yet?
- Choose a starting point from CVFormatter's popular template styles, such as Classic Chronological, Modern Sidebar, Executive Brief or Consultant Profile. CVFormatter adds your logo, colours, recruiter fields and footer during set-up, and it still counts as your free first template.
- How do changes to a CVFormatter template work?
- Once CVFormatter has built your template, try it on a few real CVs. If anything should change, list the tweaks in one email and the CVFormatter team updates the template for you. Tweaks are unlimited during your trial.
- Can CVFormatter templates use two columns, tables, cover pages and photos?
- Yes. CVFormatter templates can be single or two-column, and can include candidate profile tables, cover pages and candidate reports, photo placeholders, headers, footers and confidentiality disclaimers. Section headings can be in any language, and sections without content are hidden automatically.
- Can the CVFormatter template include recruiter details like role, client and availability?
- Yes. CVFormatter templates can include recruiter fields such as client, role, consultant name and email, availability or an EA registration number. Your team fills them in on CVFormatter for each CV, and they appear in the right place in the template.
- Can CVFormatter create an anonymous version of our template?
- Yes, free of charge. Each CVFormatter template can have an anonymous version that removes the candidate's name, contact details and photo, and can replace employer names with industry descriptions. Switch a CV to the anonymous template whenever you need a blind submission.
- Can we use different CVFormatter templates for different clients?
- Yes. CVFormatter lets your agency keep multiple templates, for example one per client, market or brand, switch between them in one click, and set one as your team's default.
- Do CVFormatter templates work with our ATS or CRM?
- Yes. CVFormatter integrates natively with JobAdder and TrackerRMS, so formatted CVs in your template go straight back to the candidate record. If your agency uses another ATS or CRM, CVFormatter can build the integration on request.
