Business Advisory Senior
About the role
thenwith that paragraph. Next: "As a Business Advisory Senior, you will provide support on a variety of consulting engagements and will be working in a team environment with our professionals in our Business Advisory Services group on wide-ranging projects including investigations of potential fraud and financial misconduct, due diligence, technical accounting advisory projects, financial modeling, post-merger integration, accounting triage, outsourced corporate accounting and finance support including financial statement preparation, and valuations of closely held businesses. This is an opportunity to transition from a traditional accounting role to one focused on advisory / consulting services to support the ever-emerging needs of our clients." That's responsibilities. Use
Responsibilities
then- each bullet? The paragraph includes list separated by commas. We can break into list items: investigations of potential fraud and financial misconduct; due diligence; technical accounting advisory projects; financial modeling; post-merger integration; accounting triage; outsourced corporate accounting and finance support including financial statement preparation; valuations of closely held businesses. Also mention transition opportunity maybe separate sentence. Could include as a bullet: opportunity to transition from traditional accounting to advisory/consulting. We'll include.
Next: "We understand the importance of work-life balance. That's why we've embraced a hybrid work model, allowing you to enjoy the flexibility of working from home as well as in the office."
That's about work flexibility; could be part of Benefits or maybe Schedule? It's about hybrid work model. Could be under Benefits or maybe a separate section like Work Flexibility but not in allowed headings. Could fit under Benefits (flexibility) or Schedule (hybrid). Since we have Schedule section only if posting states schedule specifics. It mentions hybrid work model, flexibility. That's schedule-related. We'll create Schedule section with that sentence.

Next: "What You’ll Do Consult with clients on complex accounting and finance issues which may include, but are not limited to, technical accounting issues, financial reporting, operational accounting, and post-merger integrationTechnical accounting advisory projects require detailed assessment, research, detailed testing procedures and technical writingAssist with the execution of financial and operational due diligence for clients, including transaction-oriented accounting and reporting assistance for mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and management buyoutsParticipate on and complete forensic and litigation engagements/special assignmentsAssist our managed accounting services group with outsourced accounting and finance services performing Controller-level and Accounting Manager-level responsibilities for the clientCompile material for deposition or trial as requestedPrepare valuationsPrepare and analyze complex financial modelsAnalysis of large data sets to identify trends, patterns and relationshipsExcellent analytical, research, and organizational skills with strong attention to detailStrong judgment, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities"
This seems like more responsibilities and skills. We need to parse.
We already have Responsibilities section; we can add more items. Also we have skills: Excellent analytical, research, and organizational skills with strong attention to detail; Strong judgment, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities.
We could create Skills section.
Next: "What You’ll Need Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance or other related technical disciplineMinimum of three years of Audit, transactions and/or consulting experiencePrior public accounting experienceCPA, CFE or CFF certificate preferred, but not required"
That's Requirements/Qualifications. We'll put Requirements.
Next: "WHERE CULTURE COUNTS At Schneider Downs, our culture is our identity. And it’s our culture of care that makes us unique. Even as we grow, we work hard to retain this culture to continuously promote a positive, supportive work environment through our core values: Care & Respect, Integrity, Be Great, Adaptive and We Not Me."
That's about culture; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like Culture but not in allowed headings. Could fold into About the role.
Next: "ENJOY MORE OF THE THINGS THAT MATTER MOST Competitive compensation Insurance, including health, dental, and vision, that begin on day one 20+ days of paid time off and 13 paid holidays Flex Fridays and office closures for summer and winter breaks Parental leave, family care leave, and volunteer time 401(k) plans and profit sharing CPA exam bonus, education assistance program, and pet insurance"
That's Benefits. We'll create Benefits section with list items.
Next: "A PLACE WHERE INCLUSIVITY COUNTS Schneider Downs is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, veteran status, and other protected characteristics. We believe a culture of care that celebrates diversity, equity, and inclusion contributes to a better company, better client services, and a better world."
That's EEO boilerplate; remove.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Schedule. Possibly Qualifications but we have Requirements covering. Could also have Qualifications separate but not needed.
We must not create Pay section unless posting states pay; it says Competitive compensation but no specific number; that's vague. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. For Benefits we have specific items, so okay. For Schedule we have hybrid work model mention; that's schedule info, so okay. For Pay we only have "Competitive compensation" which is vague; not specific like salary range. According to instruction, we should not create Pay section if only vague. So omit Pay.
Now craft HTML.
We need to use
for section headings. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. Let's draft. About the role: combine intro paragraphs and culture paragraph maybe. Content for About the role: "As a trusted advisor in the professional services industry, you know what matters most to clients: Big thinking with a personal focus. You also know what matters most to your own success, including: career growth, work-life flexibility, leadership that cares about your ability to succeed, the opportunity to give and receive one-on-one coaching and mentoring, as well as learning opportunities that inspire professional development. Experience them all at Schneider Downs, where we’ve been providing accounting, tax, consulting, business advisory and wealth management services through our team of innovative thought leaders for over 65 years.

Even as we grow, we work hard to retain this culture to continuously promote a positive, supportive work environment through our core values: Care & Respect, Integrity, Be Great, Adaptive and We Not Me." That's fine. Responsibilities: list items. We need to extract duties from both paragraphs. First paragraph duties: - Provide support on a variety of consulting engagements - Work in a team environment with professionals in Business Advisory Services group - Investigations of potential fraud and financial misconduct - Due diligence - Technical accounting advisory projects - Financial modeling - Post-merger integration - Accounting triage - Outsourced corporate accounting and finance support including financial statement preparation - Valuations of closely held businesses - Transition from traditional accounting to advisory/consulting services (opportunity) Second paragraph duties (What You’ll Do): - Consult with clients on complex accounting and finance issues which may include, but are not limited to, technical accounting issues, financial reporting, operational accounting, and post-merger integration - Technical accounting advisory projects require detailed assessment, research, detailed testing procedures and technical writing - Assist with the execution of financial and operational due diligence for clients, including transaction-oriented accounting and reporting assistance for mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and management buyouts - Participate on and complete forensic and litigation engagements/special assignments - Assist our managed accounting services group with outsourced accounting and finance services performing Controller-level and Accounting Manager-level responsibilities for the client - Compile material for deposition or trial as requested - Prepare valuations - Prepare and analyze complex financial models - Analysis of large data sets to identify trends, patterns and relationships Also skills: Excellent analytical, research, and organizational skills with strong attention to detail; Strong judgment, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities. We could put skills separate. Thus Responsibilities section will have many items; we can combine duplicates. Let's create list items (unique): - Provide support on a variety of consulting engagements - Work in a team environment within the Business Advisory Services group - Conduct investigations of potential fraud and financial misconduct - Perform due diligence for mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and management buyouts - Execute technical accounting advisory projects (including assessment, research, testing procedures, and technical writing) - Develop financial models and perform complex financial analysis - Support post-merger integration activities - Conduct accounting triage - Deliver outsourced corporate accounting and finance support (including Controller- and Accounting Manager-level responsibilities, financial statement preparation) - Prepare valuations of closely held businesses - Assist with forensic and litigation engagements/special assignments - Compile material for deposition or trial as requested - Analyze large data sets to identify trends, patterns, and relationships - Consult with clients on complex accounting and finance issues (technical accounting, financial reporting, operational accounting, post-merger integration) - Opportunity to transition from traditional accounting to advisory/consulting services We may have duplicates; but okay. Now Requirements section: list items. - Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or other related technical discipline - Minimum of three years of audit, transactions, and/or consulting experience - Prior public accounting experience - CPA, CFE, or CFF certificate preferred (but not required) We'll put as list.
