Associate Director, Housing Facilities

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The job summary is like a description. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. We have content: Job Summary (could be About the role). Responsibilities And Duties (Responsibilities). Qualifications And Skills (Qualifications and Skills). Salary and Benefits (Pay and Benefits). No explicit Schedule info (though mention work hours may include after hours/weekends). That could be Schedule? It says "The work hours for this position may include after hours and/or weekends pertaining to “Move In Weekend” event and urgent facility issues or maintenance emergencies." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: could be the Job Summary paragraph(s). We'll combine the first paragraph(s) up to before Responsibilities. Let's extract: "Job Summary Towson University (TU) has earned distinction as both a top 100 public university and one of the nation's great colleges to work for. Located north of Baltimore, TU currently enrolls over 20,000 students and is the second-largest university in the prestigious University System of Maryland. Towson University fosters a climate that is grounded in respect and supports the intellectual and personal growth of the entire university community. Under the general supervision of the AVP of Housing & Residence Life, the Associate Director of Housing Facilities is responsible for coordinating the Department's maintenance, repair, and renovation services to over 4800 residents living in 15 buildings. This is a highly collaborative position reporting to Housing & Residence Life with daily communication with the university’s Operations and Maintenance team. The Associate Director maintains the inventory control system, including residential furniture and building maintenance projects. The Associate Director provides leadership, strategic planning, and oversight of daily housing operations in support of custodial services, facilities management, security, and building planning. This position develops readiness efforts for new and existing buildings for occupancy. This position is also responsible for coordinating large-scale purchases and project planning. The AD collaborates with various campus departments such as University Finance, Sustainability, Events & Conference Services and Planning, Design, and Construction, represents Housing & Residence Life on building projects, and provides administrative leadership to the department. This role has primary responsibility for coordinating efforts for all facilities needs and initiatives within the department, communicating information to stakeholders and campus partners, as well as general operations." That's the summary. Responsibilities And Duties: we have many bullet-like sentences. We'll turn each into

• . Qualifications And Skills: includes Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. We'll separate maybe Requirements (required) and Skills (preferred). But we have headings Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could put Required Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred under Skills, or combine. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements (required), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe other). But we have both required and preferred. Could put required under Requirements, preferred under Skills, and maybe Qualifications not needed. But we need to avoid empty sections. Let's decide: Requirements = Required Qualifications. Skills = Preferred Qualifications (including proficiencies). Qualifications maybe we could omit if no distinct content. But we have "Qualifications And Skills" heading originally; we could treat that as Qualifications section containing both required and preferred? But we already have Skills. Might be redundant. Better: Requirements = Required Qualifications. Skills = Preferred Qualifications. Omit Qualifications section. Pay: Salary and Benefits includes salary range and benefits. We'll split Pay = salary range, Benefits = benefits description. Schedule: mention work hours may include after hours and/or weekends. Now we need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML:
