Accounting$65k–$85k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Overview? The instructions: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have Overview (company culture) - maybe "About the role"? Actually overview is about company, not role. Could treat as "About the role"? But they said headings examples: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose appropriate headings based on content. We have: - Overview: company culture and benefits (Health, Dental, Vision, ESOP, 401K, PTO, Extras, schedule). This could be Benefits and maybe Schedule. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Required: Qualifications (1-2 years experience OR recent grad, etc.) - Nice To Have: Skills (Experience in construction/engineering, CMiC/Textura, Strong Excel skills) - Salary Range Information: Pay. We need to include sections only when there is real specific content. So we can have:

Responsibilities

with
  • ...

    Qualifications

    with
    • ...

      Preferred Skills

      maybe "Skills". Use

      Skills

      for nice-to-have.

      Benefits

      for health, dental, vision, ESOP, 401K match, PTO, extras.

      Schedule

      for Boston office 3x per week, option to work from home 2x per week.

      Pay

      for salary range. We must not include headings with filler. All have content. We must not include job ID etc. Remove EEO boilerplate etc. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract details precisely. Overview text: "Overview At Shawmut Design and Construction, we take pride in the culture we’ve built as a 100% employee-owned company—one that’s been recognized with more than 100 Best Place to Work awards . We’ve been honored as a National Fortune Best Workplace, a Fortune Best Workplace for Women, Millennials, and Parents, and one of America’s Best Employers by Forbes—along with numerous regional recognitions across our 15 offices nationwide. Here’s a Glimpse Into What We Offer: Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) – Be an employee-owner! 401(K) with Company Match – Receive a company match up to 4% of your eligible pay. Generous Paid Time Off – vacation and sick time, 12 holidays, summer Fridays, and a yearly volunteer day. The Extras – Cell phone, laptop, tuition reimbursement, pet insurance, financial planning services, and more. Please note: this position works out of our Boston office 3x per week, with the option to work from home 2x per week." We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include that overview content maybe as a paragraph before sections? The instruction: Use

      for prose. So we could have a

      containing the overview paragraph (company culture and benefits). But then we also have separate Benefits and Schedule sections. Might duplicate. Better to keep overview as a brief intro paragraph, then separate sections for Benefits and Schedule. However we must not repeat content. The overview includes benefits and schedule; if we then also have Benefits and Schedule sections, we would repeat. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid repetition, but better to avoid duplication. Could we just have Overview as a paragraph and then not have separate Benefits/Schedule? But they want sections only when posting has real specific content for it. The posting does have specific content for Benefits and Schedule, so we could include those sections. However we must not repeat the same info in both overview and sections. We could keep overview as a short paragraph about company culture (the first sentences) and then move benefits and schedule to sections. Let's parse: Overview sentences: - "At Shawmut Design and Construction, we take pride in the culture we’ve built as a 100% employee-owned company—one that’s been recognized with more than 100 Best Place to Work awards." - "We’ve been honored as a National Fortune Best Workplace, a Fortune Best Workplace for Women, Millennials, and Parents, and one of America’s Best Employers by Forbes—along with numerous regional recognitions across our 15 offices nationwide." - "Here’s a Glimpse Into What We Offer:" then list benefits. - "Please note: this position works out of our Boston office 3x per week, with the option to work from home 2x per week." Thus we could split: first two sentences as overview/prose about company culture. Then Benefits section for the list after "Here’s a Glimpse Into What We Offer:" and Schedule section for the note. Thus we avoid duplication. Now Responsibilities: The posting includes a paragraph then "Responsibilities:" then a list. We need to capture all responsibilities bullet points. Let's extract responsibilities paragraph: "Shawmut is looking for an Assistant Project Accountant to support our Group Finance and Project Management teams in the set-up, maintenance and close-out of project financials. This role will be responsible for the entry and maintenance of financial tables, budgets, cost management move, etc. This is an ideal opportunity for an entry level accounting major who would enjoy the opportunity to be involved in different aspects of the project life cycle, working in a fast paced, collaborative environment while demonstrating a high attention to detail and strong customer service skills." Then "Responsibilities:" then list: - Support the Project Accountant and project teams in the project financial life cycle, including: set-up and preparation of templates, cost codes, entry of Schedule of Values, rate tables, budget entry, and project management database , etc. - Ensure accuracy and quality of all data entry and cost moves - Pulling and preparation of supporting documentation for billings and audits - Assist in monthly financial reporting including entry of cash flow data, Work In Progress (WIP) reports, entering project write-offs as assigned, entering labor study details, etc. - Customize financial reports for project teams based on existing templates and additional reporting support - Responds to all financial inquires in an accurate and timely manner - Provides subcontractor specific reporting and details We need to keep all details. Now Qualifications (Required): "Required: Qualifications 1 -2 years of billing, accounting, or AP experience OR recent grad with an accounting or finance related degree Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail Strong written and verbal communication skills Demonstrated client focus and ability to work effectively with others at all levels of the organization Strong sense of urgency" We need to split into list items. Now Nice To Have: "Nice To Have: Experience in the construction/engineering industry CMiC and/or Textura experience Strong Excel skills" We'll list as skills. Now Pay: "Salary Range Information Boston Base Salary Range: $65,000 - $85,000 The range stated is specific to Boston. Placement within the listed range depends on many factors including, but not limited to years of experience, project size capability (for Construction & Field roles) and internal company equity." We need to keep that. Now we need to output HTML fragment with

      headings and
      • for lists,

        for prose. We must not include any markdown fences. Let's craft:

        At Shawmut Design and Construction, we take pride in the culture we’ve built as a 100% employee-owned company—one that’s been recognized with more than 100 Best Place to Work awards.
