We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No headings for job title, no Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Role: Associate Director in charge of Contracts Development & Contracts Delivery team. - About the role: description: "What We Need" paragraph: "The Associate Director ... responsible for all activities in the organization’s contract administration function, specifically account and member contracts, ensuring that contractual and benefit information is readily available to enable the company to achieve premier customer service performance.

This position reports to the Senior Director of Government and Regulatory Affairs (GRA). This position is eligible for the Flex persona." - Responsibilities: "Your Day To Day" bullet list (though it's sentences). Need to extract duties. List of responsibilities: - Define, and ensure implementation of, strategic direction, goals, and objectives of the business unit. - Proactively support strategy execution by delivering meaningful, accurate, and timely input and analysis. - Ensure senior-level representation for corporate document generation automation initiatives. - Represent the GRA Division on the assessment/implementation of new/emerging state or federal mandates. - Keep Vice President abreast as needed. - With the help of the Contracts Senior Managers direct management, oversee the Contracts Development & Contracts Delivery team to ensure that all team responsibilities and required deliverables are successfully managed end-to-end. - Work directly with the Contracts Senior Managers and the Contracts Delivery lead to ensure that personnel development and growth is being fostered across all the analysts in order to create a thriving, successful, and cohesive team that, as a group unit, is ultimately responsible for: - managing the development and maintenance of legally-compliant evidences of coverage for all product lines and financial arrangements - providing contractual and business expertise and leadership for the sales and product areas - ensuring that all accounts have executed a binding agreement with the company. - issuing annual account agreement renewals, account agreement amendments, and integrated benefit descriptions. - Ensure timely and accurate completion of team’s corporate responsibilities during constant high-volume times such as (but not limited to): submission of annual SERFF Plan Management Filings; completion of federal Health Information Oversight System (HIOS) and Rates & Benefits Information System (RBIS) filing process on behalf of the business. - Work with internal business partners to provide contractual documentation for other corporate filings and annual reporting such as: Medex Rate Filing, HMO License Renewal, and/or Accreditation Filing. - Required Skills: list under "Required Skills Include But Are Not Limited To". Need to extract bullet points. List: - A comprehensive understanding and knowledge of health insurance and insurance laws, regulations, and applicability, as well as contract life cycles and types of contracts. - Understand contract obligations and collaborate with the Business to ensure contract obligations are operationalized. - Ability to lead Senior Managers and Contracts Managers in the overall coordination and implementation of new products and account specific benefit programs as well as the development and maintenance of all member and account contract forms, ensuring that benefits and contract language are in compliance with operational requirements and health insurance laws and regulations. - Foster and maintain positive relationships with internal senior leaders and external regulatory agencies, including the Massachusetts Division of Insurance (DOI) and Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and act decisively and quickly to meet requirements and the needs of the business and/or its customers. - Strong oral/written communication, presentation skills, and strategic planning skills with the ability to negotiate and influence others. - Agile and flexible thinking with a problem-solving mindset to meet multiple conflicting and aggressive timelines and provide consultative solutions and propose new ideas, while still ensuring regulatory compliance and assessing business risk. - Ensure overall team success through working with Contracts Lead personnel; ensure a dedicated commitment to the functional development of analysts. - "We’re Looking For" list: similar to skills but maybe separate? It includes: - Ability to lead a large team to meet multiple conflicting and aggressive timelines - Excellent communication and presentation skills. - Ability to create a positive, learning environment for staff - Ability to negotiate and influence. - Ability to formulate, present, and implement new ideas, processes, and policies. - Excellent overall business acumen. - Strong consultative skills with solution-oriented resolutions. - Comprehensive understanding and knowledge of health insurance, insurance laws and regulations and their applicability as well as corporate policies and products. - "What You Bring": qualifications: - 7-10 years management experience; healthcare field preferred with a focus on contracts administration. - 3-5+ years of experience in contract administration, including product development and implementation. - BA/BS degree required. Law degree or Master’s degree in related area preferred. - Direct experience in Massachusetts state government and regulatory experience preferred. - Massachusetts health care knowledge is strongly preferred. - Minimum Education Requirements: "High school degree or equivalent required unless otherwise noted above" (but we have BA/BS required, so maybe ignore? It's a generic line; but it's still content. However it's generic and maybe not needed? It says "High school degree or equivalent required unless otherwise noted above". Since we have BA/BS required, this is redundant. Might be considered boilerplate? It's a minimum education requirement but we already have BA/BS required. Could include but it's not specific. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit because it's generic and not adding new info beyond BA/BS required. - Location: Hingham - Time Type: Full time - Salary Range: $156,960.00 - $191,840.00 - Benefits: "We offer comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off, medical/dental/vision insurance, 401(k), and a suite of well-being benefits to eligible employees." - Schedule: Not explicitly given besides Full time. Could infer schedule is full-time but not explicit hours. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It states Benefits and Pay (salary range). Schedule: not explicitly stated besides "Full time". That is a time type, not schedule. Might consider schedule not given. So we may not include Schedule section. - Also "Flex persona" mention maybe indicates flexible work arrangement but not explicit schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Required Skills (maybe Skills), Qualifications (What You Bring), Benefits, Pay. We need headings:

for each section. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. We need to drop boilerplate like EEO etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. Section About the role: prose paragraph(s). Could combine the "What We Need" paragraph and maybe the reporting line. Use

    . Section Responsibilities: list of duties. Use

    • . Each duty as separate li. Might need to break down sub-bullets (like the ultimately responsible for list). Could embed as nested list? The instruction: use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could have nested lists but still
        • . We'll keep top-level li; for sub-items we can also use
          • inside. Section Skills: combine Required Skills and We’re Looking For? They overlap. Could combine into Skills section. But we need to avoid duplication. Might list unique items. However instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we combine and deduplicate, we might lose some nuance but not lose info if we keep all items. Duplication is okay? Might be considered redundant but not invented. Safer to keep both as separate sub-sections? But we only have headings for Skills. Could have two sub-lists under Skills: "Required Skills" and "Additional Competencies". But that adds headings not allowed (only h3 for section headings). Could embed as paragraphs with bold? Not allowed. Better to just merge and keep all items, even if some repeat. It's still preserving info. Thus Skills section:
            • each item from Required Skills and We’re Looking For. Qualifications: What You Bring + Minimum Education Requirements (maybe include high school line). We'll include bullet list. Benefits:
              • each benefit. Pay:

                with salary range. We should not include Schedule. Let's extract items precisely. About the role paragraph: "The Associate Director in charge of the Contracts Development & Contracts Delivery team is responsible for all activities in the organization’s contract administration function, specifically account and member contracts, ensuring that contractual and benefit information is readily available to enable the company to achieve premier customer service performance. This position directly manages the team’s leaders with direct reports and therefore also manages the organization’s overall success metrics. This position reports to the Senior Director of Government and Regulatory Affairs (GRA). This position is eligible for the Flex persona." We'll put that as

                . Responsibilities list: 1. Define, and ensure implementation of, strategic direction, goals, and objectives of the business unit. 2. Proactively support strategy execution by delivering meaningful, accurate, and timely input and analysis. 3. Ensure senior-level representation for corporate document generation automation initiatives. 4. Represent the GRA Division on the assessment/implementation of new/emerging state or federal mandates. 5. Keep Vice President abreast as needed. 6. With the help of the Contracts Senior Managers direct management, oversee the Contracts Development & Contracts Delivery team to ensure that all team responsibilities and required deliverables are successfully managed end-to-end. 7.

Work with internal business partners to provide contractual documentation for other corporate filings and annual reporting such as: Medex Rate Filing, HMO License Renewal, and/or Accreditation Filing. We'll format as li; for sub-items under #7 we can nest ul. Skills list: From Required Skills: - A comprehensive understanding and knowledge of health insurance and insurance laws, regulations, and applicability, as well as contract life cycles and types of contracts. - Understand contract obligations and collaborate with the Business to ensure contract obligations are operationalized. - Ability to lead Senior Managers and Contracts Managers in the overall coordination and implementation of new products and account specific benefit programs as well as the development and maintenance of all member and account contract forms, ensuring that benefits and contract language are in compliance with operational requirements and health insurance laws and regulations. - Foster and maintain positive relationships with internal senior leaders and external regulatory agencies, including the Massachusetts Division of Insurance (DOI) and Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and act decisively and quickly to meet requirements and the needs of the business and/or its customers. - Strong oral/written communication, presentation skills, and strategic planning skills with the ability to negotiate and influence others. - Agile and flexible thinking with a problem-solving mindset to meet multiple conflicting and aggressive timelines and provide consultative solutions and propose new ideas, while still ensuring regulatory compliance and assessing business risk. -
