accountable for // achieved


Explanation:
En la primera parte, yo empezaría esas oraciones con "Accountable for..." y en la segunda, "Achieved..."

Te copio la definición de "consigna" que da el DRAE:

consigna.
(De consignar).

1. f. En agrupaciones políticas, sindicales, etc., orden que una persona u organismo dirigente da a los subordinados o afiliados.

2. f. En las estaciones de ferrocarril, aeropuertos, etc., local en que los viajeros depositan temporalmente equipajes, paquetes, etc.

3. f. Mil. Órdenes que se dan a quien manda un puesto, y las que este manda observar al centinela.

En la segunda parte también podrías usar "Accomplished", ya que se trata de los logros del autor del CV.
