Communications Strategist

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description paragraphs before "Key Responsibilities". We'll treat that as About the role. Then Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). Then Required Qualifications. Then Preferred Qualifications. Then Physical Qualifications? Might be considered part of Qualifications but we can include as separate section if content present. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Physical Qualifications is present with details, so we can include a section maybe "Physical Requirements" but headings list includes Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They didn't list Physical Qualifications as a standard heading, but we can still use a heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive list; we can use other headings? Probably we should stick to those headings. Physical Qualifications could go under Requirements or Qualifications. We could incorporate into Qualifications section. Better to keep Qualifications (Required) and maybe Preferred Qualifications as subpoints? Could combine Required and Preferred under Qualifications with subheadings? But instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Skills maybe not present separate. Schedule not present (only mention occasional evenings/weekends, travel). That could be under Schedule? It mentions occasional evenings and weekends with overtime expectations varying with workload. May require occasional evenings and weekends with overtime expectations varying with workload. May be required to travel to off-site locations including occasional overnight stays out of town. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. Benefits: there is a section "Compensation And Total Rewards" and "Compensation Beyond Base Salary" and "Industry-Leading Family Benefits". So we can include Benefits section. Pay: salary range $79,000 - $110,000. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. Use

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

  for prose. We need to extract content. Let's parse. About the role: first paragraph(s) before "Key Responsibilities": "Communications Strategist - Maple Grove, MN or Woodbury, MN The Communications Strategist leads communications, marketing, public engagement, strategic planning, economic development, and outreach initiatives for AE2S Communications and its clients. Serving as a trusted consultant and project manager, this position develops and implements strategies that help clients achieve their objectives. The position provides strategic guidance, manages stakeholder engagement, and translates complex technical information into clear, actionable communications. Operating with a high degree of independence, the Communications Strategist maintains strong client relationships and collaborates closely with project teams to deliver effective communications and planning outcomes." We'll put that in

  . Responsibilities: bullet list under "Key Responsibilities". Items: - Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, project teams, and stakeholders on communications, public engagement, economic development, and strategic planning initiatives. - Develop and lead communications, marketing, public engagement, and planning strategies that align with client objectives. - Develop communications and strategic plans, messaging, presentations, reports, and multimedia content for internal, client, and stakeholder audiences. - Assemble and coordinate project teams, schedules, responsibilities, and deliverables to support successful project execution. - Lead stakeholder engagement efforts, including public meetings, surveys, workshops, open houses, and outreach initiatives. - Manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining quality, responsiveness, and client satisfaction. - Support business development efforts and identify opportunities to strengthen and expand client relationships. - Mentor team members and contribute to continuous improvement of communications practices and methodologies. We'll put each as

• . Requirements: This could be "Required Qualifications". We'll make a section Requirements (or Qualifications?). The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide. Probably Requirements for mandatory qualifications, Qualifications for preferred? But they also have "Required Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications". We could make Requirements section for Required Qualifications, and Qualifications section for Preferred Qualifications. That seems logical. Thus Requirements section: list of required qualifications. We need to preserve all detail: Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Marketing, Public Relations, Journalism, Community Development, Strategic Communications, or a related field. Minimum of 8 years of related professional experience in communications, marketing, project management, public engagement, community development, or a related field. Demonstrated experience developing communications strategies and plans, and leading communications or engagement initiatives. Experience managing client relationships and coordinating complex projects. Exceptional written, verbal, and visual communication skills, including writing, editing, proofreading, and presentation skills. Advanced knowledge of communications strategy, marketing, branding, public engagement, and content planning practices. Strong project management and organizational skills, including the ability to manage client relationships and build trust. Ability to solve complex problems using sound judgment and with minimal direction. Ability to manage multiple priorities and lead cross-functional project teams. Valid driver’s license with acceptable driving record. We'll put each as
• maybe. Qualifications section: Preferred Qualifications. List: - Experience with Adobe Creative Suite, website content management systems, photography, videography, and/or related communications tools and software. - Experience with economic development/community development initiatives. - Experience supporting public-sector, utility, engineering, planning, infrastructure, or community development projects. - Experience supporting business development, client growth, pursuit strategy, or proposal/interview preparation. We'll put as
• . Benefits section: from "Compensation And Total Rewards" and "Compensation Beyond Base Salary" and "Industry-Leading Family Benefits". Need to capture all benefits details. Let's extract: Compensation And Total Rewards: - The anticipated starting salary for this position is: $79,000 - $110,000 (we'll put in Pay section) - This salary range represents AE2S's good faith estimate at the time of posting. Actual compensation will be determined based on factors such as experience, technical expertise, licensure, certifications, education, geographic location, internal equity, and business needs. Compensation Beyond Base Salary: - Discretionary bonus opportunities - Employee ownership through ESOP - Matching 401(k) contributions Industry-Leading Family Benefits: - 100-percent company-paid family health Insurance - 100-percent company-paid employee dental and vision insurance - Company-paid short-term and long-term disability coverage - Paid Time Off (PTO), including credits for prior experience - Paid parental leave We'll put Benefits section with list items. Pay section: salary range and note about determination. Schedule section: from Physical Qualifications? Actually schedule info: "May require occasional evenings and weekends with overtime expectations varying with workload. May be required to travel to off-site locations including occasional overnight stays out of town." Also maybe "May require lifting and carrying up to 20 pounds, with rare lifting of up to 50 pounds." That's physical, not schedule. We'll put schedule info: occasional evenings/weekends, overtime varying with workload, travel including occasional overnight stays. We could also include physical demands under Schedule? But better to keep schedule separate. We also have Physical Qualifications details: "Primary functions require physical ability and sufficient mobility to work in an office setting. Ability to stand or sit for prolonged periods of time. Occasionally stoop, bend, kneel, crouch, reach, and twist. Occasionally lift, carry, push, and pull light to moderate amounts of weight. Operate office equipment requiring repetitive hand movement. Fine coordination including the use of a computer keyboard. May require lifting and carrying up to 20 pounds, with rare lifting of up to 50 pounds." This could be placed under Requirements or Qualifications? Might be considered part of Requirements (physical). But we have no specific heading for Physical. Could incorporate into Requirements as a bullet. However instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. We have content; we could add a section "Physical Requirements" but not in the example list. Might be okay to use a custom heading? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exclusive. So we could add a heading like Physical Requirements. But to be safe, we could fold physical details into Requirements section (since they are requirements). That would keep within the given headings. Thus Requirements section will include both the required qualifications and physical demands. We'll need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's craft HTML. Structure:
