We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Other Job Requirements" maybe? But we need to keep US Citizenship and DOE Q clearance as part of Requirements? Probably under Requirements. Also "Other Job Requirements" heading is not in allowed list; we can fold into Requirements or Qualifications. Also "WORKING WITH EDGEWATER TECHNICAL ASSOCIATES" is company description; could be About the role? Actually About the role could be description of role and organization. We'll include About the role with description of role and maybe company overview? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine. We need to extract content: - Work Location: Hybrid (Santa Fe and/or Los Alamos offices) - Organization/Group: CEA-TEC - Schedule: 9/80 A schedule - Role description: The Business Systems Communications Lead will oversee and develop strategic and tactical communications for an important organizational change management component of the Lab’s effort to replace its legacy ERP business system with a modern enterprise platform. This transformation will improve workflows and unify processes and data under SAP S/4HANA, including integrating customized applications across organizations, and support more efficient, data-driven operations. Working in tandem with the Program Change Manager, this role serves as a key communications advisor to project leadership, workstream leads, system integrator partners, and engagement teams. The ideal candidate will have a track record of taking communications to the next level by strategically integrating multimedia content (photos, video, and graphics) into campaigns that reach any audience where they are and drive results. - Key Responsibilities Include (list): - Lead communications planning across multiple workstreams and execute and deploy implementation strategies, helping teams anticipate communication needs and engage employees Lab-wide throughout the transition. - Collaborate with critical internal partner organizations and external stakeholders throughout the project’s implementation. - Coordinate the efforts of Lab multi-media staff, contribute to content development for internal audiences—including employees, managers, and other stakeholders—across a variety of channels, and maintain communication protocols across the program team. - Functional team members and organizational business communications will look to you for collaboration and support. - Help maintain consistent messaging and manage key communications vehicles, ensuring employees receive clear, timely information about upcoming changes, how staff may be affected, and how they will be supported and prepared for the transition to the new system. - Required Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in English, journalism, communications, or a physical, life, or social science and a minimum of twelve (12) years of relevant experience; or an equivalent combination of education and experience directly related to the occupation. - Some experience leading and coordinating cross-functional teams with diverse skillsets and organizational backgrounds to support key business objectives is helpful. - Thorough knowledge of English grammar and punctuation, and extensive experience in editing and writing. - Advanced proficiency using Microsoft Word and have a baseline understanding of generative AI tools, prompt engineering, evaluating AI-generated content for accuracy and quality, and applying AI responsibly within organizational policies. - Strong communication skills and project-management experience with large, enterprise-wide initiatives. - Excellent writer and editor with sound judgment and the ability to work as a trusted partner to leadership. - Proficient in assessing challenges and creating and executing multi-channel communication campaigns that achieve specific, measurable goals. - Experience working with executive-level leaders on a wide variety of projects and products. - Understand how to capture an executive’s “voice” and be able to create successful communication materials — such as quotes or correspondence — without significant oversight. - Desired Qualifications: - Experience working in a national laboratory or other large government organization. - Experience with procedures and other process/policy documents related to facility operations. - Ability to recognize and coordinate responses to potential third-party relationships that may be affected by the project. - Understand, and have some experience in, organizational change management principles and how to craft communications (including newsletters) that support employee adoption and engagement. - Preference will be given to candidates who have previously worked on a multi-functional, large-scale business transformation project, particularly one involving SAP S/4HANA. - Other Job Requirements: - United States Citizenship - Must be able to obtain and maintain DOE “Q” Security Clearance. - Benefits: The company description includes: "We offer highly competitive salaries and employee benefit packages structured to best suit your needs. We offer multiple individual and family benefit options including paid time off, medical, dental, life, vision, and disability insurance, and a pre- and post-tax 401 (k) retirement account with Company matching contributions and 100% vesting for eligible participants beginning DAY 1." Thus we have Benefits content. - Pay: Not specified; no salary mentioned. So we should NOT include Pay section. - Schedule: we have "Schedule: 9/80 A schedule". That's specific. So include Schedule section. - About the role: Could include work location, organization/group, role description. We'll put that. - Responsibilities: list. - Requirements: Could combine Required Qualifications and Other Job Requirements? But we have separate sections: Requirements and Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide what goes where. We have Required Qualifications (education, experience, etc.) and Desired Qualifications (preferred). Also we have Skills maybe implied: strong communication, project management, editing, AI, etc. Could put under Skills. We could treat: - About the role: description + work location + organization. - Responsibilities: list. - Requirements: Required Qualifications (mandatory) + US Citizenship + DOE Q clearance. - Qualifications: Desired Qualifications (preferred). - Skills: maybe list of skills like communication, editing, Microsoft Word, AI, project management, etc. But we might avoid duplication. Could combine Skills into Requirements or Qualifications. However we need to follow instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But headings are predefined; we can omit sections if no content. We could put all qualification-related content under Requirements and leave Qualifications empty (omit). Or we could put Required under Requirements, Desired under Qualifications. That's two sections. Skills: we could extract explicit skill statements: "Thorough knowledge of English grammar and punctuation, and extensive experience in editing and writing." "Advanced proficiency using Microsoft Word and have a baseline understanding of generative AI tools, prompt engineering, evaluating AI-generated content for accuracy and quality, and applying AI responsibly within organizational policies." "Strong communication skills and project-management experience with large, enterprise-wide initiatives." "Excellent writer and editor with sound judgment and the ability to work as a trusted partner to leadership." "Proficient in assessing challenges and creating and executing multi-channel communication campaigns that achieve specific, measurable goals." "Experience working with executive-level leaders on a wide variety of projects and products." "Understand how to capture an executive’s “voice” and be able to create successful communication materials — such as quotes or correspondence — without significant oversight." Those are skills. Could put under Skills. Thus we have: - About the role - Responsibilities - Requirements (mandatory qualifications + citizenship/clearance) - Qualifications (desired) - Skills (list of skills) - Benefits - Schedule We must not include Pay. Now we need to format: headings

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

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep details like "Bachelor’s degree in English, journalism, communications, or a physical, life, or social science and a minimum of twelve (12) years of relevant experience; or an equivalent combination of education and experience directly related to the occupation." etc. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove "Other Job Requirements" heading but keep its content under Requirements. We must not include navigation, cookie, legal, etc. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft:
