I am trying to learn Latex, but struggling to achieve what I want.

I want to learn Latex using the awesome-cv template and customizing it.

I want to achieve this:

enter image description here


So I tried to modify the template:

%--------------------------------------------------------- \cventry {Manager, XYZ} % Job title {ZYX} % Organization {Foo} % Location {Apr 2016 - Present} % Date(s) { General description of work

Career: \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
\item {Manager: Jan 2017 - now} \item {Senior Consultant: Apr 2016 - Jan 2017} \end{cvitems} Projects: \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
\item {IFRS 9} \item {BI} \item {Back-office} \end{cvitems} } \end{cventries}

The result is this:

enter image description here

I know that I need to modify this part, but I don't know what to do:

\newcommand*{\cventry}[5]{%
  \vspace{-2.0mm}
  \setlength\tabcolsep{0pt}
  \setlength{\extrarowheight}{0pt}
  \begin{tabular*}{\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}} L{\textwidth - 4.5cm} R{4.5cm}}
    \ifempty{#2#3}
      {\entrypositionstyle{#1} & \entrydatestyle{#4} \\}
      {\entrytitlestyle{#2} & \entrylocationstyle{#3} \\
      \entrypositionstyle{#1} & \entrydatestyle{#4} \\}
    \multicolumn{2}{L{\textwidth}}{\descriptionstyle{#5}}
  \end{tabular*}%
}

The command to define an entry of cv information requires five parameters.

\cventry{<position>}{<title>}{<location>}{<date>}{<description>}    

Some may be empty. Having two "sections" under the same company requires having to apply it twice; the second time without the name and location of the company.

\cvsection{Profesional Experience}

\begin{cventries} \cventry {Career:} % Job title {ZYX} % Organization {Foo} % Location {Apr 2016 - Present} % Date(s) {% \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
\item {Manager: Jan 2017 - now} \item {Senior Consultant: Apr 2016 - Jan 2017} \end{cvitems} }

\cventry {Projects:} % Job title {} % leave empty {} % leave empty {Apr 2016 - Present} % Date(s) {% \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
\item {IFRS 9} \item {BI} \item {Back-office} \end{cvitems} }

\end{cventries}

IMHO it's very hard to learn LaTeX trying to modify someone else's uncommented code. Why don't you start using LaTeX commands to produce a document yourself? You may be trying to emulate the awesome-cv main features: layout, fonts, colors, ... Start with the article class step by step.
