We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: h3 for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. The posting includes a lot of description: Position Overview: Responsibilities (list). There's also Education Qualifications, Experience, Competencies, Required Finance Competencies, Required Leadership Competencies, Relationships, ADA Requirements, Work Environment, Our Expectations, Benefits. We need to map to headings.
We should not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Accelerate the possible..." intro? That's marketing but maybe considered boilerplate? It's not a section heading; it's prose. We can keep as for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have an About the role section with the introductory paragraph(s). Then Responsibilities section with list of duties. Then Requirements/Qualifications/Skills sections maybe combined? We need to decide.
We have Education Qualifications, Experience, Competencies, Required Finance Competencies, Required Leadership Competencies, Relationships, ADA Requirements, Work Environment, Our Expectations, Benefits.
We need to preserve all substantive info. We can create sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list), Qualifications (education + experience + certifications), Skills (competencies, leadership, finance, etc.), Benefits (list). Possibly also Requirements? But we can combine.
We must not create Pay or Schedule sections unless posting states them. No pay/schedule given, so omit.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use
maybe under About the role? The instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have an About the role section with the introductory paragraph(s). Then Responsibilities section with list of duties. Then Requirements/Qualifications/Skills sections maybe combined? We need to decide.
We have Education Qualifications, Experience, Competencies, Required Finance Competencies, Required Leadership Competencies, Relationships, ADA Requirements, Work Environment, Our Expectations, Benefits.
We need to preserve all substantive info. We can create sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list), Qualifications (education + experience + certifications), Skills (competencies, leadership, finance, etc.), Benefits (list). Possibly also Requirements? But we can combine.
We must not create Pay or Schedule sections unless posting states them. No pay/schedule given, so omit.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list, qualifications list maybe, benefits list.
We need to ensure we don't repeat content.
Let's extract substantive content.
Intro paragraph: "Accelerate the possible by joining a winning Amcor team that’s transforming the packaging industry and improving lives around the world.

We can keep that as About the role.
Responsibilities: The posting has "Position Overview: Responsibilities This Shared Services role is part of the North America (“NA”) Beverage Rigid Packaging Solutions (“RPS”) Business Group (“BG”) and reports to the BG Controller. The critical responsibilities of this role are as follows:" Then a list of bullet-like sentences separated by line breaks. Let's extract each responsibility:
- Lead NA BG Shared Services financial reporting and accounting functions supporting 3 BG’s by ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting in compliance with US GAAP and Amcor policies
- Manage the accounting, budgeting, and forecasting for Significant Items and Restructuring programs including monthly actual and forecast reporting to corporate

- Act as a change agent within RPS finance community identifying and driving best practices
- Assist with special project activities including complex technical accounting matters, M&A activities, business improvement projects, restructuring programs, working capital initiatives, etc.
Then there is "Essential Responsibilities And Duties" with subcategories: Financial Reporting & General Accounting, Financial Management, Internal Controls And Compliance, Team Leadership & Talent Development. Each has bullet points.
We need to preserve all substantive info, so we should include those as part of responsibilities list.
Let's extract each bullet under those headings.
Financial Reporting & General Accounting:
- Oversee Financial Reporting team including capital accounting team, ensuring proper recording for all costs, depreciation and creation of fixed assets; tooling and dunnage amortization, and financial planning and analysis for the shared services group
- Oversee General Ledger Accounting team including journal entries preparation and account reconciliation processes supporting approximately 23 locations

Team Leadership & Talent Development:

- Attract, retain, engage, motivate and develop bench strength within the team to enable internal promotion and transfer as opportunities arise
We should combine all responsibilities into a single list under Responsibilities heading.
Now Qualifications/Education: "Education Qualifications: Minimum undergraduate degree in Accounting or Finance Professional accreditation preferred (CPA, CA or similar) Experience 10 years of accounting and reporting experience in an international environment; experience; experience with SEC reporting and manufacturing strongly preferred Experience leading and managing a team of direct and indirect professionals Strong technical knowledge of US GAAP accounting and tax; ability to effectively communicate complex matters to non-technical audience Strong interpersonal and decision-making skills Fluency in English (written and spoken) Effective communicator at all levels with strong oral, written & influencing skills"
We can split into Qualifications (education + experience) and Skills (competencies). But we have also Competencies sections: Amcor Leadership Framework Competencies Core Competencies Customer Focus Learning on the Fly Interpersonal Savvy Drive for Results 3-5 Applicable ALF Competencies Priority Setting Functional/Technical Skills Dealing with Ambiguity Organizing Process Management Required Finance Competencies Financial reporting / consolidation Financial, planning and analysis responsibility in a multi-national public company setting Shared service / transactional accounting management and collaboration Internal controls responsibility Profitability performance Standards & procedures alignment Restructuring program oversight Project management Required Leadership Competencies Strategic agility and problem-solving capability Strong communications skills – interpersonal, presentation, written, spoken Strong business acumen Drive for results Ability to lead and build effective teams; maintain effective relationships with all key stakeholders
We can treat these as Skills.
Relationships: "The position currently has 7 direct / indirect reports Colleagues / Key Interfaces ARP BG & BU Finance roles ARP BG functional leads – HR, IT, Legal, Procurement, R&D, Engineering, Strategy High profile with ARP Lead Team Amcor Ltd Group Functions – Reporting, Internal Audit, Tax, Treasury, Risk Management, IT"
We could include under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Team & Relationships". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put Relationships under Responsibilities or Skills. Probably under Responsibilities as part of leadership.
ADA Requirements: list of physical requirements. Could be under Requirements? But we have no specific heading for ADA. Could be under Requirements (maybe). But we need to decide if we include it. It's substantive info about physical requirements. We could include under Requirements heading (maybe as a list). However the instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have a Requirements section for things like ADA, physical requirements, maybe also experience? But we already have Qualifications for education/experience. We could treat Requirements as "physical/ADA requirements". But we also have "Experience" which is more qualification. Might be better to have Qualifications (education+experience) and Skills (competencies). Then Requirements could be ADA physical requirements. That seems plausible.
Benefits: we have a Benefits section with list.
Thus final sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list of duties), Qualifications (education + experience), Skills (competencies + leadership + finance + leadership), Requirements (ADA physical requirements), Benefits (list). We'll omit Pay and Schedule.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Accelerate the possible..." we keep as About the role paragraph.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat.
Now produce HTML fragment.
We'll wrap each section in heading then content.
For lists, use - .
For prose, use
.
Let's craft.
About the role: combine the intro paragraph(s) into one
. Might be long but okay.
Responsibilities: produce
with each responsibility as - . Need to include all bullet points we extracted.
Qualifications: education + experience. Could be
with items: Minimum undergraduate degree in Accounting or Finance; Professional accreditation preferred (CPA, CA or similar); 10 years of accounting and reporting experience in an international environment; experience with SEC reporting and manufacturing strongly preferred; Experience leading and managing a team of direct and indirect professionals; Strong technical knowledge of US GAAP accounting and tax; ability to effectively communicate complex matters to non-technical audience; Strong interpersonal and decision-making skills; Fluency in English (written and spoken); Effective communicator at all levels with strong oral, written & influencing skills.

Could be a with items: Customer Focus; Learning on the Fly; Interpersonal Savvy; Drive for Results; Priority Setting; Functional/Technical Skills; Dealing with Ambiguity; Organizing; Process Management; Financial reporting / consolidation; Financial planning and analysis responsibility in a multi-national public company setting; Shared
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have a Requirements section for things like ADA, physical requirements, maybe also experience? But we already have Qualifications for education/experience. We could treat Requirements as "physical/ADA requirements". But we also have "Experience" which is more qualification. Might be better to have Qualifications (education+experience) and Skills (competencies). Then Requirements could be ADA physical requirements. That seems plausible.
Benefits: we have a Benefits section with list.
Thus final sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list of duties), Qualifications (education + experience), Skills (competencies + leadership + finance + leadership), Requirements (ADA physical requirements), Benefits (list). We'll omit Pay and Schedule.
