Associate Director, US Local Public Affairs

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when content present. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to extract content from posting. First, remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve substantive info. Let's parse the posting. It starts with "About The Department At Novo Nordisk, we want to make a difference..." That's about department. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About The Department" is about department, not role. But we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings if appropriate. We have sections: "About The Department" (maybe treat as About the role? but it's about department). Could also be omitted? The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we need to decide which headings have content. We have content about what they offer: "What We Offer You" list of benefits. That's Benefits section. We have "The Position" description: responsibilities. That's Responsibilities. We have "Relationships" maybe part of responsibilities. We have "Essential Functions" list: that's responsibilities. We have "Physical Requirements": maybe part of Requirements? Could be under Requirements. We have "Development Of People": supervisory responsibilities, maybe part of Responsibilities. We have "Qualifications": that's Qualifications section. We have "We commit to an inclusive recruitment process..." that's EEO boilerplate, remove. We have "At Novo Nordisk, we're not chasing quick fixes..." that's marketing fluff, maybe can be removed as boilerplate? It's not specific to job; could be considered boilerplate. Likely remove. We have "Novo Nordisk is an equal opportunity employer." remove. We have accommodation request line: remove. Thus we need to produce sections: About the role? Could we use "About The Department" as About the role? Might be okay. But we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Associate Director, US Local Public Affairs". Not repeated. We'll create sections: - About the role: maybe combine "About The Department" and "What We Offer You"? Actually "What We Offer You" is Benefits. So About the role could be the introductory paragraph about department and role? The posting includes "About The Department" then "What We Offer You". Then "The Position". So we could put "About the role" as the department description? Might be okay. Better: Use "About the role" for the description of the role (maybe from "The Position" first paragraph?). But we already have Responsibilities separate. Given the instruction to prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones, we could combine About the role and Responsibilities? But they want headings for each if content. Let's decide: - About the role: we can use the "About The Department" paragraph (maybe also include the first sentence of "The Position"? but that is responsibilities). We'll keep About the role as the department description. - Responsibilities: we can combine "The Position" paragraph, "Essential Functions" list, "Development Of People" paragraph, maybe "Relationships" etc. - Requirements: maybe include Physical Requirements? But Physical Requirements is about ability to work in open office, travel 20-30%. That's more like job demands, could be under Requirements or maybe under Responsibilities? Usually physical requirements go under Requirements. We'll put under Requirements. - Qualifications: the qualifications list. - Benefits: the "What We Offer You" list. - Pay: not specified (they mention "Leading pay and annual performance bonus for all positions" but not specific numbers. That's vague; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Leading pay and annual performance bonus for all positions" - that's not specific numbers, but it's a statement about pay. Is that considered specific content? It says "Leading pay" but no numbers. The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). "Leading pay" is vague but not exactly placeholder; still it's not a specific number. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit Pay section. - Schedule: not specified. - Skills: maybe we could extract from qualifications? But we have Qualifications section already; Skills could be separate but we might not need. Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. Now we need to format with

headings, then content: use

for prose,

• for lists. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract exact text. About The Department: "About The Department At Novo Nordisk, we want to make a difference. For more than 100 years, we have led the way in diabetes care. Being part of Novo Nordisk allows our employees to embark on the opportunity to help improve the quality of life for millions of people around the world. In NC, we operate three pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities that are responsible for fulfilling different steps in our injectable and oral treatment supply chains. Our Product Supply Aseptic Manufacturing (PS AM) facility in Clayton, NC is a 457,000 square foot aseptic "fill and finish" site that is responsible for producing innovative, injectable diabetes and obesity treatments. At PS AM, you’ll join a global network of manufacturing professionals who are passionate about what they do." We need to keep that as prose. Could be one

Now Benefits: "What We Offer You Leading pay and annual performance bonus for all positionsAll employees enjoy generous paid time off including 14 paid holidaysHealth Insurance, Dental Insurance, Vision Insurance – effective day oneGuaranteed 8% 401K contribution plus individual company match optionFamily Focused Benefits including 14 weeks paid parental & 6 weeks paid family medical leaveFree access to Novo Nordisk-marketed pharmaceutical productsTuition Assistance Life & Disability InsuranceEmployee Referral Awards" We need to split into list items. The original text seems concatenated without punctuation. We need to parse each benefit: - Leading pay and annual performance bonus for all positions - All employees enjoy generous paid time off including 14 paid holidays - Health Insurance, Dental Insurance, Vision Insurance – effective day one - Guaranteed 8% 401K contribution plus individual company match option - Family Focused Benefits including 14 weeks paid parental & 6 weeks paid family medical leave - Free access to Novo Nordisk-marketed pharmaceutical products - Tuition Assistance - Life & Disability Insurance - Employee Referral Awards We'll make

  • for each. Now Responsibilities: We need to combine: "The Position The Associate Director, US Local Public Affairs leads the Local Public Affairs team in advancing Novo Nordisk's US manufacturing priorities by protecting current operations and enabling future site growth. The role collaborates with the USO Public Affairs team to develop and execute proactive local and state government affairs strategies focused on protecting manufacturing facilities and operations, which includes infrastructure, utilities, permitting, zoning, construction impacts, expansion incentive negotiations, and relevant regulations.

The role serves as a key advocate for Novo Nordisk's manufacturing interests and ensures compliance with lobbying and reporting requirements." Then "Relationships Reports to the Director of DPM-US Public Affairs & Communications" maybe part of responsibilities but could be omitted? It's a reporting line; could be included as prose. Then "Essential Functions" list: each bullet starts with a verb. We need to preserve each as list item. Essential Functions bullets: - Set strategy and execute local government affairs priorities across US GMS sites to reduce risk and support operations and business growth - Lead and develop the local public affairs team by setting expectations, managing performance, and building succession strength - Manage the site external affairs operating model, including planning, priorities, KPIs, and budget/vendor oversight - Monitor policy and regulatory developments affecting site operations and align internal stakeholders on actions and messaging - Guide alliance-building with business, industry, education, and community partners to support workforce, infrastructure, and reputation goals - Lead engagement with government stakeholders to build understanding of Novo Nordisk’s manufacturing priorities and community impact - Own the stakeholder engagement model and maintain senior relationships with key local county and town officials and decision-makers - Lead external issues management by setting response plans, escalation paths, and stakeholder strategies for site-related issues - Mitigate issues that delay, prevent, or stop construction permitting, zoning, infrastructure planning, and other construction-related engagement with local authorities and internal teams - Set community engagement and investment strategy to strengthen the sites’ reputation and social license to operate - Lead economic development and incentives efforts that support site expansion, sustainability, and cross-functional execution - Provide stakeholder intelligence and risk/opportunity insights to help leadership prioritize decisions and engagement - Coordinate with USO Public Affairs and enterprise partners to ensure aligned messaging and a consistent, responsible state public affairs approach - Oversee lobbying and advocacy on manufacturing priorities while ensuring compliance with ethics, registration, and reporting requirements - Follow all safety & environmental requirements in the performance of duties - Other accountabilities as assigned Then "Development Of People Supervisory.

Manage the application and communication of all Novo Nordisk policies, procedures, and Novo Nordisk Way." That's also responsibilities (supervisory). We'll include as prose or list? It's prose; we can make a

    . Now Requirements: Physical Requirements: "Ability to work in an open office environment with the possibility of frequent distraction. Ability to travel 20-30% of the time. (% can change on a case-by-case basis based on the role.)" We'll put as

    . Also maybe other requirements like "Ability to travel 20-30% of the time." Already there. Now Qualifications: list of qualifications. We need to extract each qualification bullet. Qualifications paragraph: "Bachelor’s degree in communications, Government, Public Affairs, Political Science, Public Administration, or related field of study required; advanced degree preferredA minimum of twelve (12) years of progressive experience in local/state/federal government affairs, public affairs, external affairs, or related roles supporting large, complex operations required; manufacturing/industrial environment preferredA minimum of five (5) years of direct people leadership experience (or demonstrated success leading through a matrix), including setting priorities, coaching talent, and driving consistent execution across multiple stakeholders requiredExperience engaging agencies and officials on site operations issues (e.g., permitting, zoning, utilities, infrastructure, emergency services, construction impacts, and incentives) requiredStrong analytical judgment to assess developments and provide clear actions and leadership updates requiredWorking knowledge of legislative and regulatory processes and how public affairs supports manufacturing operations and expansion requiredAbility to set strategy, establish governance, and lead cross-functional teams to deliver outcomes requiredAbility to lead external issues management, including scenario planning and incident response communications requiredCoalition-building and alliance development experience across business, industry, education, and community partners requiredStrong communication, negotiation, and advocacy skills with diverse stakeholders requiredCommitment to integrity and compliance, including lobbying and ethics requirements requiredExecutive presence and strong advocacy
