If a resume reads like a job description, it won't get attention. Lose the word "responsible". "Responsible" shows up throughout a job description given to an employee when they first start a job. "Responsible" is the minimum expectation for performing a job. A Resume should show how expectations were exceeded and significantly contributed to making a difference in the success of a department / organization.
Use action words. For goodness sake, take advantage of the Thesaurus usually provided with most word processors.
Some suggested actions words are:
Developed ....
Implemented ....
Coordinated .....
Managed ....
