Clinical Research Associate - Ohio Region

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to parse the posting. Key parts: - Intro paragraph about BMS purpose etc. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role" is generic; but we can put a

for the introductory prose before sections. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for: - About the role: maybe the introductory paragraph about BMS purpose and the role summary. - Responsibilities: many bullet-like sentences (though not bullet list). We need to turn them into

  • . The posting repeats some lines; we need to preserve all substantive info, but we can deduplicate? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove duplicated lines. So we should deduplicate repeated responsibilities. - Qualifications & Experience: list of qualifications. - Competencies: list of competencies (knowledge, skills). Could be under Skills or Requirements? The headings list includes Skills. Could treat Competencies as Skills. - Travel: mention travel up to 70% travel. That could be under Schedule? Or maybe a separate section? The headings list includes Schedule. Travel could be part of Schedule? But we have no explicit schedule besides travel. Could create a Schedule section with travel info. - Compensation Overview: Pay range. So we need a Pay section with the salary range. - Benefits: Benefits section. - How We Work: maybe not needed; but could be omitted as not in headings list. - Supporting People With Disabilities etc: boilerplate; remove. - Candidate Rights etc: remove. - Data Protection etc: remove. - Job ID line: "R1606243 Clinical Research Associate - Ohio Region" - we should fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Probably we can include a

    with Job ID and location. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content. First, introductory paragraph: "At Bristol Myers Squibb, our employees often ask, “Who are you working for?”—a question that fuels collaboration, accountability, and urgency in our work. Our purpose-driven culture inspires us to discover, develop, and deliver innovative medicines to prevail over serious diseases. We offer uniquely interesting and meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and a supportive environment that values inclusion, wellbeing, flexibility, and comprehensive benefits. This is work that transforms the lives of patients, and the careers of those who do it." Then "Position Summary The Clinical Research Associate (CRA) is a primary point of contact at the site level for both internal and external stakeholders, responsible for overseeing the quality, integrity and compliance of clinical trial sites in accordance with the protocol, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), International Council for Harmonization (ICH) Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (GCP), and applicable regulatory requirements." We could combine into About the role section. Now Responsibilities: Let's list unique responsibilities. From text: - Conduct site qualification, initiation, routine monitoring and close-out visits across all trial phases in accordance with the Site Monitoring Plan, ensuring adherence to protocol, BMS Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and ICH GCP (appears twice, but we keep once) - Maintain the ethical and scientific integrity of clinical trials by verifying data within electronic systems and paper records (as applicable) to ensure the accessibility, completeness and accuracy of data submitted by study sites - Monitor site adherence to ICH GCP and local regulations, including compliance with the principles of ALCOA to maintain data integrity and reliability.

This includes the development and implementation of site corrective and preventive actions. - In specific instances, may support start-up and submission related activities, including ICF reviews and collection of documents to/from site. - Support provision of access to relevant BMS and vendor systems is available for clinical trial site personnel and ensures internal BMS systems are kept up to date for site monitoring activities. - Support coordination of site activities related to database locks to ensure timelines are met as required locally. - Perform timely site closure activities when all required protocol visits and follow-up are completed. We need to ensure we didn't miss any. Now Qualifications & Experience: - Bachelor’s degree required, preferably within life sciences or equivalent - Valid driver’s license (as locally required) - 2-3 years of relevant clinical research experience, able to work independently, demonstrates proficiency in all aspects of the role - Relevant prior Pharma/Biotech Sponsor employment or experience as a clinical study coordinator preferred - Experience in the drug discovery/development process.

Note there is duplication: "Microsoft Suite" appears twice; we can deduplicate. Travel: "This position may require up to 70% travel" Pay: "Compensation Overview Field - United States - US $104,680 - $126,845 The starting pay range(s) listed above is for full-time employees (FTE). You may also be eligible for additional discretionary incentive cash and stock opportunities. We determine starting pay thoughtfully – carefully considering the nature of the role, required skills, work location, schedule and the knowledge and experience you bring. Final compensation is guided by pay equity principles and applicable employment laws. Compensation programs are reviewed on an ongoing basis and may be adjusted over time to reflect evolving market factors, and individual, team or Company performance." We need to output Pay section with the range. Probably just include the range and maybe note that it's for FTE etc. But we should preserve all substantive info; we can include the whole paragraph but maybe condense? The instruction: do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the detail, not summarize. However we can keep the paragraph as is; it's not a list, so

    . Benefits: The benefits paragraph is long. We need to preserve all substantive info. We'll put in a

    under Benefits heading. How We Work etc: Not in headings list; we could omit as not required. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can skip How We Work. Supporting People With Disabilities etc: boilerplate; remove. Candidate Rights etc: remove. Data Protection etc: remove. Job ID line: we can put a short

    at top: "Job ID: R1606243 – Location: Ohio Region". Or we could drop it. The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. We'll include a short

    . Now structure: We'll start with a

    for intro (maybe combine intro and position summary). Then

    About the role

    with

    containing the intro and position summary? Actually About the role could be the intro paragraph plus position summary. We'll put that in a

    . Then

    Responsibilities

    with
    • each responsibility. Then

      Qualifications

      with
      • each qualification. Then

        Skills

        with
        • each competency/skill. Then

          Travel

          ? Not in headings list but we have Schedule heading. Travel could be under Schedule. We'll use

          Schedule

          with

          about travel up to 70%. Then

          Pay

          with

          containing compensation overview. Then

          Benefits

          with

          containing benefits paragraph. Finally maybe a

          for Job ID. We must not repeat job title as heading. Good. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. Let's craft. We need to be careful to not include duplicated lines. Let's write responsibilities list items exactly as in text, but ensure no duplication. I'll write them: - Conduct site qualification, initiation, routine monitoring and close-out visits
