We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The job description includes: "Job Description" intro, then responsibilities broken into sections: President's Office Operations & Strategic Coordination, Executive & Institutional Communications, Board of Trustees & Advancement Support, Stakeholder Engagement & Institutional Leadership. Then Requirements. Then Working Arrangements (schedule). Then Compensation & Benefits (pay and benefits). We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. Remove boilerplate: application instructions, EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Keep all substantive info. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role? Could be a brief summary paragraph from first paragraph: "Champlain College is seeking a Chief of Staff (CoS) to serve as a strategic partner to the President. The CoS manages executive and institutional communications, leads crisis communications, coordinates Board of Trustees operations, and partners with Advancement to support the President's engagement in fundraising activities. The CoS participates in meetings with or on behalf of the President and may lead cross-functional, institutional initiatives. The ideal candidate is a relationship-driven leader with a warm, collaborative approach and the sound judgment to manage sensitive information, navigate complex stakeholder dynamics, and serve as a trusted proxy for the President across the college community." That's about the role. Could be placed under

    About the role

    with

    . Responsibilities: we have multiple bullet-like paragraphs. Could group under

    Responsibilities

    with
    • each duty. The responsibilities are grouped into four categories; we could list each bullet as a duty. Might be better to keep categories as subheadings? But only allowed headings are those listed; we could still use

      for sections only. Could embed categories inside
    • as prose. That's fine. Requirements: list of requirements bullet points. Use

      Requirements

      with
      • . Skills: maybe combine with Requirements? The posting includes many skill-like items: ability to work collaboratively, positive disposition, proven ability to work with confidential info, excellent organizational, managerial, written communication skills, problem-solving, analytical abilities, project management, verbal communication, critical thinking skills, leadership style rooted in inclusion. Those could be under Skills section. But we already have Requirements covering degree, experience, etc. The instructions: Use sections only when posting has real, specific content. We have content for Requirements (degree, experience). Also we have content for Skills (the listed abilities). Could split: Requirements for degree/experience; Skills for abilities. Or combine all under Requirements. But better to follow typical structure: Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (abilities). We'll create both. Benefits: we have Compensation & Benefits section with salary range and benefits list. So we need Pay and Benefits sections? The instruction: Use headings for Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have salary range (Pay) and benefits list (Benefits). Also schedule (Working Arrangements). So we need three sections: Pay, Benefits, Schedule. However we also have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills maybe. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. But we must include sections only when posting has real, specific content. We have content for all those. Could combine Pay and Benefits into one Compensation & Benefits section? But they ask to use headings for Benefits, Pay, Schedule separately. It says: "Use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It's examples, not mandatory to use all. We should include only those with real content. We have Pay (salary range), Benefits (list), Schedule (working arrangements). Also we have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills. Qualifications maybe similar to Requirements; we can skip Qualifications if we have Requirements. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Benefits, Schedule. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We must ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, except boilerplate. Let's extract content: About the role paragraph: as above. Responsibilities: we have four categories with details. Let's list each duty as separate
      • maybe grouping. Category 1: President's Office Operations & Strategic Coordination - Manage the day-to-day operations of the President's Office - Strategize and prioritize presidential projects, initiatives, communications, and activities to advance institutional goals - Engage appropriate administration, faculty, and staff to move important work forward - Research key issues with stakeholders and achieve resolution Category 2: Executive & Institutional Communications - Manage institutional and executive communications, including campus-wide employee forums and events - Write and manage communications originating from the President's Office - Lead crisis communications and serve as the primary contact in the President's Office during college emergencies - Develop and implement change management strategies for institutional communications Category 3: Board of Trustees & Advancement Support - Support operations of the Champlain College Board of Trustees and its subcommittees - Coordinate the President's engagement in advancement activities to meet campaign goals - Prepare and manage board materials before and after meetings Category 4: Stakeholder Engagement & Institutional Leadership - Serve as the President's proxy with key stakeholders and liaise with staff in other organizations as needed - Assist the President in meetings and manage relationships across internal and external constituencies - Support campus leadership to advance key strategic initiatives - Assist the President in recruiting, evaluating, and inspiring potential new hires, keeping in mind the talent needs of the college Now Requirements bullet list: - Bachelor's degree required; graduate degree preferred - A minimum of ten years of related experience - Ability to work collaboratively across a variety of internal and external stakeholders and build strong, trusted relationships - A positive, warm, and friendly disposition characterized by integrity, respect, honesty, openness, flexibility, sound judgment, and adherence to high ethical principles - Proven ability to work with and hold confidential information - Excellent organizational, managerial, and written communication skills - Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities with sound, independent judgment - Highly developed project management, verbal communication, and critical thinking skills - A leadership style rooted in a commitment to inclusion and working respectfully across lines of difference But note some of those are skill-like; we might split: Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (the rest).
