I want to add a name to my contacts whereby all their contact details except
name and Job title are the same as an existing one, ie another person in a
company i already have on file. Is there a way I can do this without having
to rewrite all the other details such as address and phone numbers etc.

RIght-click the contact and drag it a little way. Release the button and a
conect menu will appear with the options "Copy" and "Cancel". Choose Copy.
You'll now have two identical, identically named contact records. Open one
and change it.

Open a contact from your selected company - Actions->New Contact from Same
Company.
