Amphibian Conservation Specialist

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes mission, why work with us, description, duties, skills, education/experience, physical responsibilities, work schedule, pre-employment requirements, pay range. We need to use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education/experience), Skills, Benefits (why work with us), Pay (pay range), Schedule (work schedule). Also maybe Physical responsibilities could be part of Requirements? But we can include a separate section if content is specific. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Physical responsibilities into Requirements or maybe a separate "Physical Requirements". But the allowed headings list includes only those given: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those headings. Not required to use all; only when content exists. Thus we can have:

About the role

with mission and why work with us? Actually "About the role" could contain description of role (the description paragraph). Could also include mission and why work with us maybe under Benefits? But Benefits is separate. Better: About the role: description paragraph (Under limited supervision...). Responsibilities: list of duties (Animal Husbandry, Maintenance, Public Education). Requirements: education/experience (BS or masters etc). Qualifications maybe not needed; but we could combine education/experience into Requirements. Skills: list of skills. Benefits: why work with us bullet list. Pay: pay range. Schedule: work schedule. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, drug-free, etc. Remove pre-employment requirements? That's boilerplate? It says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Pre-employment requirements (background check, drug screening, TB) might be considered boilerplate? Not exactly EEO but still generic hiring requirement. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's specific to this zoo? It says "Pre-employment Requirements Nashville Zoo is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer and maintains a drug-free work environment. All employment is at-will. All candidates are required to successfully complete a criminal background check and drug screening prior to hire.Pre-employment and annual tuberculosis (TB) screenings are a condition of continued employment." This is somewhat generic but could be considered boilerplate. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. It doesn't explicitly say to remove pre-employment requirements, but it's similar to standard hiring. Safer to omit it. We also need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from description, duties, responsibilities, skills, education/experience, physical responsibilities? Physical responsibilities is substantive; we need to include it somewhere. Could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section but not in allowed headings. Could we add a custom heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings (e.g...). Likely they expect only those headings. However we could incorporate physical responsibilities into Requirements or maybe into a "Responsibilities" but that's more about duties. Could add a subsection within Requirements using

. But we need to preserve all substantive info; we can include physical responsibilities as a paragraph under Requirements or maybe under a separate "Physical Responsibilities" heading but that might deviate. Safer to include it under Requirements as a paragraph. Similarly, work schedule is substantive; we will have Schedule section. Now we need to format lists with

• . For duties, we have categories: Animal Husbandry (with sub-bullets), Maintenance, Public Education. We could flatten into a single list of duties, but preserve detail. Could create nested lists? The instruction didn't forbid nested lists but we can just make a flat list with each duty as a line item, preserving details. However some duties are long sentences; we can keep them as list items. Similarly for skills: list of knowledge and capabilities. Benefits: list from "Why Work With Us". Now we need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. First, About the role: include mission statement and description? The mission statement is about zoo; maybe not directly about role but could be included. The description: "Under limited supervision, employee will serve as the primary conservation person for a given taxon in the Ectotherm department. Primary responsibility is to manage conservation populations to the highest standards possible. and participate in the general care of assigned collection animals; maintain exhibits, perform light exhibit construction; operate zoo vehicles; maintain integrity of existing graphics and exhibits. Employee will be responsible for ensuring that all supplies and needs for their areas (ordering feed products, acquisition of tools and cleaning supplies etc.) are ordered by them or informing the appropriate staff member of the need. Employee will remain a positive role model for coworkers and other conservation biologists and researchers. Attend meetings as required and give presentations." We'll put that in

  . Now Responsibilities: we need to list duties from "Duties And Responsibilities" broken into Animal Husbandry, Maintenance, Public Education. We'll create list items each maybe with sub-bullets? Could do nested

  inside
  • . That's okay. Let's extract Animal Husbandry bullets: - Prepare food and water for research and conservation populations destined for release or for grant funded research - Field collection and conservation work with species. - Maintain regular and reliable attendance - Maintain professional conduct at all times and consistently model the organization’s values in all interactions with colleagues, guests, and stakeholders. - Document and collect data. - Collaborate with Curator and Assistant curator on all aspects for conservation for individual conservation projects. - Clean animal exhibits, and service areas. - Participate in capturing, incapacitating, and moving animals. - Assist Veterinarian staff in the treatment of collection animals. - Act as primary keeper for some collection animals and conservation populations of amphibians. - Participate in and train other keepers in basic animal conditioning techniques. - Provide coaching and guidance to keeper staff.

We'll combine into a single list. Education/Experience: "A BS in zoology, animal biology, animal husbandry or related field and/or at least 7 years of work experience with amphibians. Alternatively, a master’s degree in an appropriate field and 2 years of paid experience with the taxa." We'll put in

    . Physical responsibilities: we need to include that content. We'll put under Requirements maybe as a separate paragraph after education. Work Schedule: "Must be willing and able to work any combination of five days in the seven-day workweek including weekends and holidays." Pay Range: "$22.29 - $24.96 USD" Benefits: list from "Why Work With Us": - Comprehensive healthcare coverage – including medical, dental, and vision plans to keep you and your family healthy. - Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – confidential support services for mental, emotional, and financial well-being. - 401(k) retirement plan with company matching – helping you build a secure future while you make a meaningful impact today. - Generous paid time off and sick leave – because rest and recovery are vital. - Exclusive zoo perks – enjoy discounts on park experiences, retail, and food services, plus complimentary membership benefits. - A collaborative and inclusive culture – be part of a diverse team where your voice matters, your growth is nurtured, and collaboration thrives across all departments. - AZA-accredited facility – Nashville Zoo is committed to top-tier animal care, ethics and global conservation efforts. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO etc. We'll omit pre-employment requirements. Now produce HTML. Structure:

    Check that we didn't repeat job title. Good. Now ensure we preserve all substantive info: Did we miss anything? The description also includes "Nashville Zoo Mission" and "Why Work With Us" which we used for About the role and Benefits. The mission statement is included in About the role? We placed mission statement in About the role paragraph along with description. Let's include both: maybe separate paragraphs: first mission, then description. But we can combine. We need to preserve mission statement: "Nashville Zoo is dedicated to inspiring a culture of understanding and discovery of our natural world through conservation, innovation, and leadership. With a diverse collection of animals and a commitment to wildlife preservation, we provide engaging experiences for visitors of all ages." We'll include that as a paragraph before description. Now About the role section: we can have two

    elements: one for mission, one for description. Now Responsibilities: we need to ensure we didn't miss any duty like "Maintain regular and reliable attendance" etc. Already included. Now Skills: ensure we captured all. Check "Thorough knowledge of:" includes "Aquatic animal behavior, Life support systems, water quality." We split. Also "Care, feeding, and handling invertebrates." included. "Ability to self-direct work tasks while ensuring safety and productivity." included. "Safety practices around exotic animals." included. "Animal biology or zoology or another related field." included. "Techniques for restraining and capturing
