No, we do not have a separate template for roles and responsibilities because we think it is better to define information security roles and responsibilities in each policy and procedure - e.g. in your IT procedures you should define who is responsible for performing the backup, configuring the firewall, etc. By the way, ISO 27001 does not require you to have a centralized list of security roles and responsibilities - you can document those any way you find appropriate.

If you had a separate document where you listed the detailed roles and responsibilities in a centralized way, this would be a duplication of the rules - this would mean a much more difficult maintenance of the documentation, and possible conflicting rules.

We did however list general roles and responsibilities in our Information Security Policy - e.g. responsibilities for the top management level, responsibilities for ISMS coordination, etc.
