You may have to re-explain the finally bit but try this to start with

Put your Jobs and names in Columns A & B and select them, then

Data|List|Create list.

Select a job in Column A will display the people who do those jobs in Column
B and filter out the rest.

U can use the Pivot Table to get the desired result.

Data - -Pivot Table , go through the entire wizard, select the appropriate
Layout [Row Column] and get the table created.
In that u will get the filter type option.
