Assurance Experienced Manager - Asset Management

The user wants me to convert this job posting into clean semantic HTML. Let me analyze the content and structure it according to the rules. First, I need to identify the sections: 1. Job Summary / About the role - there's a "Job Summary" section with description 2. Responsibilities / Job Duties - there's a detailed "Job Duties" section with multiple subsections (Control Environment, GAAP, SEC and PCAOB, GAAS, Methodology, Research, Other duties) 3. Supervisory Responsibilities - separate section 4. Requirements / Qualifications - Education, Experience, License/Certifications, Software, Language, Other Knowledge, Skills & Abilities 5. Pay - there are salary ranges by state 6. Benefits - there's an "About Us" section that mentions benefits, ESOP, Total Rewards 7. Schedule - not explicitly mentioned I need to use

for section headings,

• for lists,

  for prose. Don't repeat job title as heading. Don't include Job ID/requisition numbers (none present). Remove boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, scam warnings, application instructions. The posting has: - Job Summary (prose) - Job Duties with multiple categories (each could be a subsection or combined) - Supervisory Responsibilities (list) - Education Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (multiple subsections) - Salary ranges by state (Pay section) - About Us with benefits info (Benefits section) I should structure: - About the role (from Job Summary) - Responsibilities (from Job Duties and Supervisory Responsibilities) - Requirements (from Education, Experience, License, Software, Other) - Pay (salary ranges) - Benefits (from About Us) For Responsibilities, the Job Duties has many bullet points under categories. I could either make each category a sub-list or combine into one big list. Since the instruction says use

  • for any list of duties, I'll create a list for each major category or combine. But the rule says "use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". I think I should group them logically. I'll create:

      About the role

      Job summary text...

      Responsibilities

      • Control Environment: ...
      ... but each bullet is a duty. The original has subheadings like "Control Environment:", "Gaap", "SEC And PCAOB", etc. I could make each a separate list item with the category as bold or just include in the text. Since it's a list of duties, I'll make each bullet a duty, preserving the category context. Better: create a list where each item is a duty, prefixed by the category. Or create nested lists? But the instruction says use
      • for any list. Nested lists are okay but might be overkill. I'll flatten: each bullet is a duty, with the category indicated. Similarly for Requirements: multiple categories (Education, Experience, License, Software, Other). I'll make a list for each category or combine. Let's parse the content. Job Summary: "The Assurance Experienced Manager is responsible for supervising, directing, and reviewing the results through the delegation of tasks throughout the planning, field work and “wrap-up” stages of an Audit client engagement. In this role, the Assurance Experienced Manager is charged with marketing, networking, and business development within an area of expertise, as well as the responsibility of ensuring engagement profitability involving billings and collections. Traditionally responsibilities of the Assurance Experienced Manager will include advising the client on various economic and regulatory risks within their industry, resolving complex accounting issues, apply GAAP and GAAS consistently within complex situations, writing technical consultation memos on GAAP / GAAS issues, and documenting, validating, testing, and assessing various financial reporting control systems." Job Duties: multiple categories with bullet points. I'll extract each bullet as a list item. Supervisory Responsibilities: list of 6 items. Education Qualifications: Bachelor's degree required, Master's preferred. Experience: 6+ years, supervisory experience, industry expertise preferred. License/Certifications: Active US CPA required, etc. Software: Microsoft Office Suite preferred, assurance applications preferred. Language: N/A (drop) Other Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: list of 12 items. Pay: salary ranges by state. About Us: describes culture, ESOP, Total Rewards benefits. This can be Benefits section. Now, I need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's write. First, About the role:
