What defines this layout
- Sans-serif typeface
- Single column
- No photo
- Headings over a full-width rule
- Dates right-aligned against each role
Every one of these is a setting, not a constraint — accent colour, font, size, spacing and page margins stay yours under Customize, and switching template later re-renders what you’ve written rather than starting it over.
Using Gridiron as a CV
Gridiron works as a British or Australian CV as it stands, where CV and resume name the same two-page document. The second column is the thing to check before sending: copy the text out of the exported PDF and confirm it reads in a sensible order.
It is set tight, which helps on the two-page limit most non-academic CVs are read against.
More on the differences: CV templates and CV examples.
Is Gridiron the right choice?
Who it suits
Applications with a long tools list and a second column. Four columns of skills alongside a ruled right-hand rail is the most this will hold.
What it does to ATS parsing
Two columns with a four-column skills block. Check the extracted order once.
At two pages
Good. Set tight and built for volume.
Use something else if
Graphite for a single-column version, or Rampart if you would rather box the name.
