Quick answer: To list multiple positions at the same company, write the company name once, then list each job title underneath in reverse-chronological order with its own dates. If the roles were similar, you can stack the titles and share one set of bullets. If they were different, give each title its own three to four bullets. Show the total time at the company next to the company name and dates for each role under it. This makes promotions and growth obvious and avoids looking like you changed jobs several times.
Holding several positions at one company is a great story: it says the company trusted you, promoted you, or gave you new challenges. The problem is that many resumes tell that story badly. Each role gets listed as a separate job, the company name repeats three times, and suddenly it looks like you quit and got rehired over and over.
This guide shows you how to list multiple positions at the same company, with formats for similar roles, different roles, promotions, lateral moves, and leaving and returning.
Why It Matters
- It shows growth and loyalty: promotions prove the company valued your work
- It avoids looking like job-hopping
- It saves space by not repeating the company name and location
- It helps ATS read your work history correctly when company and titles are clear
Format 1: Stacked Titles (Similar Roles)
Use when your roles were similar and the same achievements apply to both.
BrightPath Logistics, Denver, CO | 2020 – Present
Senior Operations Analyst | 2023 – Present
Operations Analyst | 2020 – 2023
- Built Tableau dashboards tracking 6,000 daily shipments, saving leadership 10 hours per week
- Identified carrier overcharges worth $240K through invoice analysis
- Automated weekly reporting with SQL, cutting prep time from 6 hours to 30 minutes
- Trained 4 new analysts on reporting tools and processes
Pros: compact and clean. Cons: harder to show what changed between roles.
Format 2: Separate Entries Under One Company (Different Roles)
Use when your responsibilities changed meaningfully. This is the most common and versatile format.
Summit Health Partners, Chicago, IL | 2019 – Present
Practice Manager | 2023 – Present
- Manage operations for a 12-provider clinic serving 18,000 patients
- Cut patient wait times by 20% by redesigning scheduling templates
- Lead a team of 22 front-desk and clinical support staff
Front Desk Supervisor | 2021 – 2023
- Supervised 8 front-desk staff and reduced check-in time by 3 minutes per patient
- Introduced text reminders that cut no-shows by 18%
Patient Services Representative | 2019 – 2021
- Scheduled 80+ appointments daily and verified insurance for 4 providers
Tips:
- Give your current role the most bullets (3–5), and older roles fewer (1–3)
- Focus older roles on achievements that show the skills that led to your promotion
Format 3: Showing a Promotion Clearly
Make the promotion explicit so recruiters don't miss it:
Northline Apparel, Dallas, TX | 2017 – Present
Store Manager | 2021 – Present (promoted from Assistant Store Manager)
- Grew comp sales 12%, ranking #2 of 38 stores
Assistant Store Manager | 2017 – 2021- Selected for promotion after leading the store to 108% of plan as acting manager
You can also mention it in a bullet: "Promoted within 18 months for exceeding sales targets." For more formats, see how to show a promotion on your resume.
Format 4: Lateral Moves or Transfers
Use the same structure as Format 2. Highlight what you gained from the move:
Acme Software, Remote | 2019 – Present
Product Manager | 2022 – Present
- Own the roadmap for a billing product used by 3,000 businesses
Customer Success Manager | 2019 – 2022
- Managed 45 accounts and gathered feedback that shaped 6 product features, leading to my transfer into product
For transfers between locations, add the location to each title line:
Software Engineer, Seattle, WA | 2023 – Present
Software Engineer, Austin, TX | 2021 – 2023
Format 5: You Left and Came Back (Rehire)
Treat each period as a separate entry, in reverse-chronological order, with other jobs in between:
Riverside Medical Center, Columbus, OH | 2023 – Present
Charge Nurse
- ...
Valley Health Clinic, Columbus, OH | 2020 – 2023
Registered Nurse
- ...
Riverside Medical Center, Columbus, OH | 2017 – 2020
Registered Nurse
- ...
Being rehired is a positive signal. You can note it: "Rehired as Charge Nurse after 3 years at Valley Health."
Formatting Tips
- Dates: show the total tenure next to the company, and individual dates next to each title
- Use month and year if roles were short (for example, "Jan 2023 – Present")
- Reverse-chronological: current or most recent title first
- Keep tenses right: present tense for your current role, past tense for previous ones. See past or present tense on a resume
- Don't repeat identical bullets under each title
- Match LinkedIn: list each title as a separate position under the same company so LinkedIn groups them. See how to add your resume to LinkedIn
How Far Back Should You Go?
If you've been at one company for many years with several roles, focus on the last 10–15 years. Older titles can be condensed into one line: "Earlier roles: Sales Associate, Key Holder (2010–2014)." See how far back should a resume go.
