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 Saffron as a CV
Saffron needs nothing changed to serve as a UK, Irish or Australian CV — those markets mean by "CV" exactly what the US means by "resume", and this is already that document. Add a photo and personal details only if you are applying into continental Europe.
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 Saffron the right choice?
Who it suits
Applications with a long tools list that still want some warmth. Gold rules and four skill columns, set slightly tight.
What it does to ATS parsing
Single column with a four-column skills block. Parsers read it as one list.
At two pages
Good. The coloured rules carry the structure across.
Use something else if
Citrine for a denser version, or Rampart if you would rather box the name.
