We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. The posting includes sections: About the firm? Actually first paragraph about firm. Could be "About the firm" or "Our Firm". Use h3 for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content. We have: - Intro about firm: "Our Firm Sorren is a top 50 national advisory firm..." Could be "About the firm" but not in list. The allowed headings list includes "About the role". But we can use other headings? The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, but we should use those headings when appropriate. Probably we should stick to those headings. However we have content about firm overview; maybe we can put under "About the role"? Not exactly. Could treat as "About the firm" but not in list; maybe we should not create a heading for it and just put as

before sections. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to use those headings where applicable. We have: - Position Summary: could be "About the role". We'll put that. - Your Impact (Essential Duties): that's responsibilities. So

Responsibilities

with list. - Your Background Required: that's qualifications/requirements. Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". We'll use "Requirements". List of required items. - Why Choose Us? / What We Offer*: that's benefits. So

Benefits

with list. - No explicit Pay or Schedule sections; we should not create them. - Also there is "Your Journey" paragraph about team members expectations; could be part of responsibilities or maybe "About the role". Might incorporate into responsibilities or a separate section like "Expectations". But not in allowed headings; maybe we can incorporate into responsibilities or omit as boilerplate? It's substantive: describes expected behaviors. Could be part of responsibilities. We'll include as part of responsibilities list? It's prose; we can put as

under responsibilities before list. - Also there is "Meet annual billable hour and other targets..." that's duty. - Also "Full-time commitment and flexibility to work beyond regular hours to meet team deadlines" is requirement. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all points. Let's extract: Firm overview paragraph: "Our Firm Sorren is a top 50 national advisory firm that blends deep expertise with a human-first approach. We don’t just work with numbers—we work with people, building lasting relationships and delivering strategic solutions in accounting, assurance, tax, advisory, and private client services. At Sorren, we believe that success is a shared journey.

We can put that as a

before sections, maybe under an "About the firm" but not required. We'll just put as a

That's also about expectations; we can incorporate into responsibilities or a separate section like "Expectations". Since not in list, maybe we can add as a

under responsibilities heading. Then "Position Summary Responsible for leading and managing complex business valuation and strategic advisory engagements, providing clear, data-driven insights and facilitating high-level strategy development with C-suite clients. This position oversees advanced financial analyses, drives business development, mentors team members, and represents the firm in client meetings and industry events to support growth and thought leadership." That's about the role; we can put as

under About the role heading.

We’ll support you as you advance in your career while also giving you the flexibility to enjoy life outside of work. We believe balance fuels success, and we’ve designed our culture and benefits to reflect that." That's intro to benefits; we can put as

      under Benefits heading. Then "What We Offer*:" list: - Generous paid time off - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life and disability insurance - 401(k) retirement savings plan - Paid holidays, including a firmwide winter break (December 24 – January 1) - Paid parental leave (available after one year of service) - Mentorship and career development programs - CPA exam support to help you succeed on the path to licensure - Firm-sponsored events and spontaneous team activities - Celebrations to mark milestones like the end of busy season and the holidays - Benefits are available to full-time employees regularly scheduled to work at least 30 hours per week. We'll output as
