    A CV should have some subjects which you build around. Your personality, your work experience, your present employment, academic background and hobbies.
    You should structure it to be eye catching.

    some bullet points you can build on include:

    Job title: In this case its Project Manager

    Objective of Job: you fill in the blanks

    Duties:

    From the description you have detailed I perceive that you spend time Coordinating a team. and this involves multiple roles. I suggest you build this CV with your objectives and goals as the subject. Including as much detail as possible. If some one picks it up, they should be able to tell what you spend your time doing and all the work experience that you have gathered over the years.

    You have to present the information in a professional way. Avoid cluster and repetition. While every experince counts, you need to stir the reader in the direction you want to go.

    Once you understand the concept, you will appreciate that only you can build a CV for you because you have the knowledge.

    Everything you listed is considered a standard job duty. Every person applying for the job will have the same things listed on their resumes too.

    The way you make yourself “stand out” is to quantify your experience. Also you need to list anything you have done that has saved the company money or made them more profitable.

    Example:

    Project Manager (underline your former job title)
    XYZ Corporation
    City, State

    * Designed & Implemented a new procedure to produce profit/loss reports resulting in time savings from more efficient use of existing technologies.
    * Conducted internet research that found the company 20 new clients, resulting in a net increase of $1,000,000 in new sales.
    * Using superior proofreading skills, caught multiple errors before they were transmitted to our clients.

    The resumes that impress me always show quantifiable ways in which the applicant has made/or saved a previous employer money

    Good Luck
