Communications Director

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Simply Put, A Great Place to Work Benesch..." then "Communications Director Benesch is seeking..." then "Location", "The Impact You Will Have", "What We Are Looking For", "Why Benesch", "Learn More About Pay Transparency At Benesch Pay Range $60—$80 USD", "Equal Opportunity & Accessibility..." etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Benesch is an equal opportunity employer..." and "Learn More About Pay Transparency At Benesch Pay Range $60—$80 USD" maybe we need to keep Pay section if actual pay range is given. The posting includes "Learn More About Pay Transparency At Benesch Pay Range $60—$80 USD". That's a pay range. So we should include a Pay section with that range. Also "Why Benesch" includes benefits: leadership development, retirement contribution up to 9%, flexibility, generous PTO, parental leave, mentorship, etc. So we can include Benefits section summarizing those. Also "Location" includes hybrid work schedule, flexibility to work from any Benesch office, fully remote may be considered. So Schedule section. We need headings:

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real specific content. We have: About the role? Could be the introductory paragraph about Benesch and the role description. Could treat as About the role. Responsibilities: The Impact You Will Have list (many bullet-like sentences). Those are responsibilities. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The "What We Are Looking For" list includes qualifications, experience, skills. Could split into Requirements (education, years experience) and Qualifications/Skills maybe combined. But we need to follow instruction: use headings as given; we can include multiple of them if content exists. We should not create thin sections. Perhaps combine into Requirements and Skills. But we have both qualifications and skills content. Could make Requirements (education, years experience) and Skills (specific abilities). However the list includes both. Might be better to have one section "Requirements" covering education, experience, and another "Skills" covering abilities. But we need to avoid thin sections; but we have enough content. Pay: we have pay range $60—$80 USD. Schedule: hybrid work schedule, flexibility, fully remote may be considered. Benefits: from Why Benesch: leadership development, training, clear paths forward, up to 9% retirement contribution, flexibility, generous PTO, parental leave, mentorship, hands-on experience, opportunities to make impact. We also have "Learn More About Pay Transparency At Benesch Pay Range $60—$80 USD" which we used for Pay. We need to remove EEO boilerplate etc. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the specifics: e.g., "Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Public Relations, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field." "12+ years of progressive experience..." etc. For responsibilities we need to keep each bullet as

. The responsibilities list is a paragraph with sentences separated by periods but not bullet list. We need to convert to

• . We'll split each sentence that starts with a verb (Develop, Identify, Serve, Lead, etc.) into list items. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is Communications Director. So we should not have a heading that repeats that. We'll start with About the role. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. First, About the role: combine the introductory paragraphs: "Simply Put, A Great Place to Work Benesch is a growing, multi-disciplined planning, engineering, and professional services firm. We enhance infrastructure and communities across the country – creating spaces and providing connections in ways that make a difference. We pride ourselves on being nimble enough to remain responsive to client needs yet large enough to offer exceptional bench strength. As a member of our team, you’ll have an opportunity to draw from those resources when you need them and, likewise, contribute your expertise when you have something to share. At Benesch, we are looking for candidates with varied backgrounds and worldviews. We are committed to offering an inclusive work environment where everyone feels valued and respected. Statistics show that women and underrepresented groups are less likely to apply for a position if they don’t meet 100% of the qualifications. If this statement resonates with you, don’t be so hard on yourself—apply for the job!" Then also the role description: "Benesch is seeking a Communications Director to lead our company-wide communications strategy and strengthen how we connect with employees, clients, industry partners, and communities. This is a highly visible leadership role responsible for shaping Benesch’s voice, messaging, and brand across internal and external communications, thought leadership, digital channels, social media, and the Benesch website. The ideal candidate is a strategic communications leader and exceptional storyteller who can translate complex business, technical, and strategic topics into clear, compelling communications. This individual will serve as a trusted communications advisor to executive leadership and leaders across Benesch while leading a talented communications team and partnering closely with technical experts, business leaders, and other internal teams. This is an opportunity to play a key role in shaping Benesch’s reputation, strengthening our presence within the AEC industry, and telling the story of our people, projects, culture, and employee ownership." We can combine into About the role. Now Responsibilities: list each bullet from "The Impact You Will Have". Let's extract sentences: - Develop and lead an integrated, company-wide communications strategy aligned with Benesch’s business objectives, strategic priorities, and brand. - Identify opportunities to strengthen Benesch’s reputation, visibility, and market position within the AEC industry and the communities we serve. - Serve as a strategic communications advisor to executive leadership and leaders across the organization. - Lead stewardship of the Benesch brand and ensure consistent application and continued evolution of our visual identity, voice, and messaging. - Lead the strategy and ongoing development of Benesch’s website, digital communications channels, and social media presence. - Develop and execute communications strategies that strengthen employees’ understanding of Benesch’s strategy, business performance, culture, employee ownership, and company initiatives. - Oversee internal company-wide communications and develop effective strategies for reaching employees across offices, disciplines, and geographies. - Partner with executive leadership and internal teams on communications related to company initiatives, organizational changes, employee programs, culture, and other key business priorities. - Partner with technical experts and business leaders to develop compelling thought leadership content that demonstrates Benesch’s expertise and strengthens our position within the markets we serve. - Lead media relations and identify opportunities to increase Benesch’s visibility through industry publications, conferences, digital channels, and other relevant platforms. - Oversee website content, messaging, user experience, and ongoing content strategy in partnership with internal and external technical resources. - Ensure communications campaigns are coordinated across internal communications, external communications, digital platforms, social media, and other channels. - Identify emerging digital platforms, tools, technologies, and communications practices that can strengthen Benesch’s ability to reach and engage key audiences. - Establish measures of effectiveness and leverage communications and digital analytics to evaluate performance and continuously improve strategies and programs. - Lead, develop, and mentor communications team members while coordinating specialized work across marketing managers, specialists, coordinators, and external partners. - Foster a culture of collaboration, creativity, accountability, and continuous improvement across the communications function. - Represent Benesch and the Communications team in industry events, professional organizations, conferences, and other external engagements as appropriate. Now Requirements: education and years experience. - Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Public Relations, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field. - 12+ years of progressive experience in corporate communications, public relations, marketing communications, or a related field. Qualifications/Skills: The rest of "What We Are Looking For" list after those two. Let's extract: - Demonstrated experience developing and executing integrated communications strategies across internal and external audiences. - Exceptional writing, editing, storytelling, and content development skills, with the ability to translate complex business, technical, and strategic topics into clear and compelling communications. - Demonstrated experience advising executive leadership and senior business leaders on strategic communications. - Experience leading and developing communications or marketing professionals and coordinating specialized teams or external partners. - Strong understanding of brand strategy, positioning, reputation management, and integrated marketing communications. - Experience managing corporate websites, digital communications, social media, and content strategy. - Experience developing thought leadership content and positioning technical experts and business leaders as industry voices. - Experience with internal communications strategies and communicating company strategy, organizational changes, culture, and employee initiatives. - Experience with media relations and building relationships with industry publications and other external media outlets. - Strong understanding of communications and digital analytics with the ability to use data and insights to evaluate effectiveness and improve programs. - Strong business acumen and ability to connect communications strategies and priorities to broader business objectives. - Strong leadership, collaboration, relationship-building, and influencing skills with the ability to work effectively across functions and organizational levels. - Demonstrated ability to lead, mentor, and develop high-performing teams. - Strong presentation and facilitation skills, with the ability to effectively communicate with executive leadership, technical professionals, and employees at all levels of the organization. - Certified Professional Services Marketer (CPSM) certification is preferred. We could split into Qualifications and Skills but we can just put them under Requirements? But we already used Requirements for education/experience. We could have a Skills section for the abilities list. Let's do: - Requirements: education + years experience. - Skills: the list of abilities (writing, editing, etc.) plus certifications. But the instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications and Skills if we have content. However we might combine Qualifications and Skills into one if content is thin. But we have plenty for both. We could treat Qualifications as the demonstrated experience items (like developing strategies, advising exec, leading teams, etc.) and Skills as the specific abilities (writing, editing, brand strategy, analytics, etc.) plus certification. Let's do: Requirements: education + years experience. Qualifications: demonstrated experience developing and executing integrated communications strategies across internal and external audiences; demonstrated experience advising executive leadership and senior business leaders on strategic communications; experience leading and developing communications or marketing professionals and coordinating specialized teams or external partners; experience with internal communications strategies and communicating company strategy, organizational changes, culture, and employee initiatives; experience with media relations and building relationships with industry publications and other external media outlets. Skills: exceptional writing, editing, storytelling, and content development skills; strong understanding of brand strategy, positioning, reputation management, and integrated marketing communications; experience managing corporate websites, digital communications, social media, and content strategy; experience developing thought leadership content and positioning technical experts and business leaders as industry voices; strong understanding of communications and digital analytics with ability to use data and insights; strong business acumen; strong leadership, collaboration, relationship-building, influencing skills; demonstrated ability to lead, mentor, develop high-performing teams; strong presentation and facilitation skills; Certified Professional Services Marketer (CPSM) certification preferred. Now Benefits: from Why Benesch: leadership development, training, clear paths forward; up to 9% retirement contribution for benefit-eligible employees; flexibility that works with schedules that support your life; generous paid time off and parental leave for benefit-eligible employees; support beyond work through mentorship, hands-on experience, opportunities to make an impact from day one. We'll list as bullet points. Pay: Pay Range $60—$80 USD. Schedule: hybrid work schedule with flexibility to work from any Benesch office location; fully remote arrangements may be considered for candidates not near a Benesch office. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. We removed those. Now produce HTML. We'll wrap sections in
