We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Prospera" and "Position Summary". The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content: About Prospera (mission description) could be "About the role"? Actually "About Prospera" is about organization, not role. But we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should map content accordingly.
We have:
- About Prospera: description of organization. Could be placed under a heading like "About the role"? Not exactly. Maybe we can create a section "About the organization" but not in allowed list. The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says "use
. The bullet points are sentences starting with verbs. We'll keep them.
We'll need to group them under

It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are examples, not exclusive? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect those headings. So we should use those headings only if we have content. We have content for Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities). We have content for Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (Skills). We have Education and Experience (Qualifications). We have Compensation (Pay). We have maybe Benefits? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned (though hybrid work environment and hours). Could include Schedule if we have info: "Hybrid work environment with standard business hours and periodic extended hours during audits, budget cycles, and other critical periods." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule.
We also have Leadership and Collaboration Expectations, Supervisory Responsibilities, Confidentiality, Physical Requirements and Work Environment. Those could be part of Responsibilities or maybe separate sections like "Requirements"? But we can incorporate into Responsibilities or maybe "Qualifications"? Probably better to keep under Responsibilities (duties) and maybe "Qualifications" for education/experience.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points etc.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. There's none.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:
About the role
maybe include Prospera description? Actually "About the role" could contain Position Summary. We'll put Position Summary there.
Responsibilities
include Essential Duties and Responsibilities (list). Also maybe Leadership and Collaboration Expectations, Supervisory Responsibilities, Confidentiality, Physical Requirements and Work Environment? Those could be separate sections but we don't have headings for them. Could incorporate into Responsibilities as additional bullet points.
Better to keep Responsibilities as the list of duties. Then maybe add a section "Expectations" but not in allowed list. Might be okay to add a custom heading? The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g...). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings; we could also use others but better to stick to those.
Thus we will have sections: About the role (Position Summary), Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities), Qualifications (Education and Experience plus Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities maybe split), Skills (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities), Pay (Compensation), Schedule (Hybrid work environment...).
We need to ensure we don't repeat content.
Let's extract:

Essential Duties and Responsibilities: list many bullet points.
We need to convert each bullet into

Essential Duties and Responsibilities: list many bullet points.
We need to convert each bullet into
- .
We have many bullet points; we can keep them as is.
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: list of bullet points.
Education and Experience: list.
Supervisory Responsibilities: bullet.
Leadership and Collaboration Expectations: bullet list.
Confidentiality: paragraph.
Physical Requirements and Work Environment: bullet list.
Compensation: "$200,000–$225,000 annually"
We need to decide where to put Supervisory Responsibilities, Leadership and Collaboration Expectations, Confidentiality, Physical Requirements. Could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section "Expectations". Since not in allowed list, maybe we incorporate them under Responsibilities as additional bullets.
Thus Responsibilities section will include all duty bullets plus those extra bullets.
We'll need to ensure we don't lose any info.
Let's extract all duty bullets:

Then after that we have "Supervisory Responsibilities": bullet: "The CFO exercises general supervision over the professional, technical, and administrative staff responsible for the Finance and Accounting Department’s activities."
Then "Leadership and Collaboration Expectations": list of bullet points (starting with "Take ownership...").
Then "Confidentiality": paragraph.
Then "Physical Requirements and Work Environment": bullet list.
We'll include all these under Responsibilities.

Now Pay: "$200,000–$225,000 annually"
Schedule: "Hybrid work environment with standard business hours and periodic extended hours during audits, budget cycles, and other critical periods."
We might also include "Ability to work for extended periods at a desk and computer and use standard office equipment. Ability to communicate effectively in person, virtually, and by telephone. Ability to lift and carry items weighing up to 15 pounds. Ability to navigate housing properties, including inclined terrain and stairs. Occasional travel within Prospera’s service region and to other locations as required." That's under Physical Requirements and Work Environment.
We'll include those as bullet list under Schedule? Actually Schedule section is for schedule info; physical requirements could be separate but we don't have a heading for that. Could incorporate into Schedule? Not ideal. Perhaps we can add a section "Requirements" for physical requirements? But the instruction says use headings like Requirements (maybe for qualifications). Actually "Requirements" could be used for education/experience etc. But we already have Qualifications. Physical requirements could be under Requirements? Might be okay to put them under Requirements as they are job requirements. However we already have Qualifications for education/experience. We could split: Qualifications for education/experience, Requirements for physical/other requirements.
