Recruiter tips for Project Manager CVs

  • NHS project management CVs should lead with your methodology certification (PRINCE2, MSP, Agile) and any NHS Digital or STP experience.
  • Show that you can work across clinical and operational stakeholders, this is the core skill for NHS PMs.
  • Use NHS-specific language: ICS, ICB, STP, CQC, EPR, PAS, RiO, TPP, they signal insider knowledge.
  • Include your programme budget ownership and the complexity of the governance structures you've operated within.

Common CV mistakes for Project Managers
