We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key parts: - Intro: "The Procurement & Property Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is seeking an Associate Subcontract Administrator to join the Procurement Service Center. This role will purchase high-volume, low-risk pCard and purchase orders—including lab and office supplies, chemicals, raw materials, tools, equipment, and off-site equipment maintenance and support services—in support of research at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory as governed by the Prime Contract, University of California Laboratory Procurement Standard Practices, Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), US Department of Energy Acquisition Regulation (DEAR), and generally accepted best business practices. Working under close supervision, the Service Center Subcontract Administrator is responsible for understanding the Service Center’s key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics, and contributes to the fulfillment of projects and functional area objectives. We're here for the same mission, to bring science solutions to the world. Join our team and YOU will play a supporting role in our goal to address global challenges! Have a high level of impact and work for an organization associated with 17 Nobel Prizes!" That's about the role. Could be "About the role" section. - Then "You Will" with 80% Subcontract Administration bullet list (actually paragraphs). Then "20% Customer Relationship Management" bullet list. We need to put responsibilities maybe under "Responsibilities". The "You Will" sections are responsibilities. - Then "We Are Looking For" bullet list of qualifications/requirements. - Then "Desired Skills/knowledge" bullet list. - Then "Additional Information" includes: Application date, Appointment type, Salary range, Designated Official, Background check, Work modality, Work authorization, Want to learn more..., EEO, Misconduct Disclosure Requirement. We need to extract substantive info: Application date (priority consideration Oct 12, 2026; applications accepted until posting removed). Appointment type: full-time 1-year term appointment with possibility of extension or conversion. Salary range: $72,000 to $85,000. Work modality: hybrid schedule, combination teleworking and onsite, must reside within 150 miles, REAL ID required. Work authorization: must be eligible to work in US, visa sponsorship not available. Also maybe "Designated Official: financial disclosure" etc. Could be included under "Additional Information" but we may not need separate headings for each; we could put under "Additional Information" as a

or

    . However guidelines: Use

    for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They want us to use those headings only if content exists. So we need to map content to these headings. - About the role: intro paragraph. - Responsibilities: the "You Will" sections (both 80% and 20%). Could be combined. - Requirements: maybe the "We Are Looking For" (minimum qualifications). Could be under Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe the "Desired Skills/knowledge" (preferred). Could be under Qualifications or Skills. They have separate headings for Qualifications and Skills. We could put "We Are Looking For" under Requirements (or Qualifications). And "Desired Skills/knowledge" under Skills. - Benefits: not explicitly mentioned. No benefits info. So we should not create Benefits section. - Pay: we have salary range. So we can create Pay section with that info. - Schedule: we have work modality (hybrid) and maybe appointment type (full-time 1-year term). Could be Schedule section: includes full-time, 1-year term, hybrid schedule, residence requirement, REAL ID. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like specific governing regulations, KPIs, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus produce something like:

    About the role

    ...

    Responsibilities

    • ...
    • ...
    But note: responsibilities are paragraphs with multiple sentences; we could break into
  • items for each duty. The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we should convert duties into list items. For prose sections like About the role, we can use

      . Similarly for Requirements (We Are Looking For) we can use

      • . Skills: Desired Skills/knowledge as list. Pay: maybe

        with salary range. Schedule: maybe

        • for each item: full-time 1-year term appointment, hybrid work schedule, residence within 150 miles, REAL ID required, work authorization (eligible to work in US, no visa sponsorship). Also appointment type details. We need to ensure we don't lose any substantive info: e.g., "Working under close supervision, the Service Center Subcontract Administrator is responsible for understanding the Service Center’s key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics, and contributes to the fulfillment of projects and functional area objectives." That's part of About the role. Also "We're here for the same mission, to bring science solutions to the world. Join our team and YOU will play a supporting role in our goal to address global challenges! Have a high level of impact and work for an organization associated with 17 Nobel Prizes!" That's also About the role. Now responsibilities: The "You Will" sections have many sentences. We'll break each sentence or clause into list items. Let's extract responsibilities: 80% Subcontract Administration: - Purchase high volume, low risk goods and services with a value within the delegated procurement authority limit for this position using the appropriate purchasing methodology while maintaining compliance with LBNL’s policies and procedures. - Following Laboratory’s Standard Practices and Procedures, place pCard and purchase orders based on understanding the customers’ requirements and suppliers’ capacity and resolve purchase order issues of limited scope and minimal complexity. - Document and maintain all PCard and purchase orders in accordance with LBNL Policies and Guidelines. - Provide notice to other functional areas with contractual-related responsibilities such as Property Management or Environmental Health, Safety and Security (EHSS). - In accordance with Laboratory’s Standard Practices and procedures, assure timely and accurate reconciliation and close-out of pCard and purchase orders. - In accordance with department operating standards, respond to customer inquiries in a timely manner and keep customers informed of PCard and Subcontract status. - Ensure all subcontract information is entered into FMS timely and accurately. - Proactively provide status on all open requisitions and orders to customers in accordance with established operating standards. - Contribute to the successful achievement of Service Center KPIs. 20% Customer Relationship Management: - In accordance with Help Desk Operating Standards, provide customers with support and advice on incoming procurement related inquiries and issues. - Develop resolutions to issues of limited scope and complexity. - Track incoming customer inquiries in the Help Desk ticketing database. - Collaborate with colleagues and make recommendations for standard responses to inquiries. - Contribute to the successful achievement of Help Desk KPIs. Note there is a duplicate line "training opportunities. Proactively contribute to the successful achievement of Help Desk KPIs." Actually after "Collaborate with colleagues and make recommendations for standard responses to inquiries." there is "training opportunities. Proactively contribute to the successful achievement of Help Desk KPIs." Might be a fragment; but we should keep as is: "training opportunities. Proactively contribute to the successful achievement of Help Desk KPIs." We'll treat as separate item maybe. Now Requirements (We Are Looking For): - A Bachelor’s degree or equivalent training and experience, and a minimum of 0-1 years of related experience. - Effective oral and written communication skills. - Knowledge of procurement activities and systems, and an understanding of, or the ability to learn, Department’s policies and procedures in order to provide advice and guidance to internal and external customers. - Ability to apply concepts and principles to research and resolve procurement related issues of limited scope and complexity. - Ability to professionally and effectively interact and build relationships with internal and external customers, including dealing with difficult customer service issues. - Ability to manage multiple tasks and handle a high volume workload. - Ability to work in a team environment. - Must maintain a high level of accuracy and attention to detail. - Experience with MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Internet browsers. - Experience with PeopleSoft or an electronic purchasing system. - Ability to work in excess of a normal workweek to meet assignments/deliverables. - Ability to work well under pressure and successfully meet deadlines. - Ability to work on a computer for extended periods of time.

Additional Information: - Application date: Priority consideration will be given to candidates who apply by October 12, 2026. Applications will be accepted until the job posting is removed. - Appointment type: This is a full-time 1-year, term appointment with the possibility of extension or conversion to Career appointment based upon satisfactory job performance, continuing availability of funds and ongoing operational needs. - Salary range: The budgeted salary range for this position is $72,000.00 to $85,000.00 depending upon the candidate’s skills, knowledge, and abilities. This includes education, certifications, and years of experience. - Designated Official: This position is subject to the financial disclosure requirements of the California Political Reform Act of 1974. The successful candidate for this position will be required to file financial interest statements upon assuming this position, annually while holding this position, and when leaving this position. - Background check: This position is subject to a background check. Any convictions will be evaluated to determine if they directly relate to the responsibilities and requirements of the position. Having a conviction history will not automatically disqualify an applicant from being considered for employment. - Work modality: This position is eligible for a hybrid work schedule - a combination of teleworking and performing work on site at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, 1 Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA. Work schedules are dependent on business needs. Individuals working a hybrid schedule must reside within 150 miles of Berkeley Lab. A REAL ID or other acceptable form of identification is required to access Berkeley Lab sites (for more information click here). - Work authorization: Candidates must be eligible to work in the U.S. at the time of hire. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position. - Want to learn more about working at Berkeley Lab? Please visit: careers.lbl.gov - Equal Employment Opportunity Employer: ... (boilerplate) we should remove EEO boilerplate per instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should omit the EEO paragraph. - Misconduct Disclosure Requirement: ... also legal boilerplate? It's a condition of employment; might be considered legal. The instruction says remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Misconduct disclosure might be considered legal; safer to remove it as well. We'll omit. Thus we keep only substantive info: Application date, Appointment type, Salary range, Designated Official, Background check, Work modality, Work authorization, Want to learn more link. But Designated Official and Background check maybe also considered legal? They are specific to the position; not generic boilerplate. Probably keep them. Now we need to map to headings. We have: - About the role: intro paragraph. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements
