Directors, VPs and C-suite
Executive CV Writing for Directors and the C-Suite
At senior level, employers and search firms read for scope, judgement and commercial outcome. Our executive specialists write CVs that show what changed because you were in the role.
In short
An executive CV is a 2 to 3 page document for director-level and C-suite roles that leads with leadership scope (budget, headcount, geography) and business outcomes such as revenue, margin, turnaround or transformation. PenworthCV's Executive Pro package is written by an executive specialist and includes an executive bio, cover letter and LinkedIn profile.
Scope up front
Budget, P&L, headcount, markets and reporting lines, stated plainly so a search consultant can place you in seconds.
Outcomes that matter to boards
Growth, margin, cost, risk, transformation and talent. We connect each role to what the business gained.
Executive bio included
A polished third-person bio for board packs, speaker pages and company websites comes with Executive Pro.
Discreet by default
We never contact your employer or network. Drafts and files stay between you and your writer.
