This is rather easy to do in PHP
Since you already have some kind of a login system, you really ( very simplisticaly) need 2 php pages.
1. "secure.php" wil be for accepting the CV pages via a form that you could "spice-up" with a WYSIWYG editor for the <textarea> etc, that has all the "login" stuff in it's header ( assuming you working with sessions to regulate access). The "action" for this page would then also include the "security headers" and the INSERT sql to put the CV into the DB and correctly links it to the specific user.
2. "public.php" will be a simple "lookup" page that contains the SELECT sql to query the database for all the users and list/display them.
I don't think you are going to find something like this that you can simply "install" into your existing website. You will most likely need to have these (at least 2) pages created custom for your site - specifically with the user access in mind. Alternatively you can migrate your entire website to something like Joomla which have functionality like this built into it to a certain degree; but I think it will be easier and cheaper to just get someone to write this for you - you will most likely have to give a developer access to your existing code in order for this to work though ( if you don't have someone "in-house")
