We need to ensure we don't include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info: include details about role, responsibilities, etc. Let's extract text. About the role: combine first paragraph(s) up to "Why Join Us?" maybe. Original text: "Help Shape the Future of a Growing Organization Master's Transportation is seeking an experienced Controller to serve as a key financial leader within one of our operating divisions. This is an opportunity to join a growing organization that continues to evolve across vehicle manufacturing, sales, leasing, rentals, and service operations. We're looking for an accounting professional who enjoys solving complex business challenges, building scalable processes, and partnering with operational leaders to drive results. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, embraces change, and sees growth as an opportunity rather than an obstacle. As a divisional Controller, you will play a critical role in ensuring financial accuracy while helping improve systems, reporting, controls, and business processes that support the company's continued expansion. This is a 100% in-person leadership role in the Kansas City metropolitan area. We believe the strongest partnerships, collaboration, and problem-solving happen when teams work together face-to-face." Then "Why Join Us?" section: "Great culture, pay, benefits, and investment in your training and development. With Master's Transportation, you can be part of a fast-growing, innovative company. Our new company headquarters located on 40 acres in Kansas City, MO, features a state-of-the-art, climate-controlled facility. The Master's leadership team values our people and supports their growth and positive employee experience. For people looking to contribute, build on their skills, and work together for shared success, it's an exciting time to join the company!" We could include that in About the role or maybe separate but we only need About the role. We'll include all that as About the role. Responsibilities: Essential Functions list: - Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual close; ensure timely, accurate financial statements and account reconciliations. - Own general ledger integrity, chart of accounts, accounting policies, and US GAAP compliance. - Develop and maintain internal controls and accounting SOPs to safeguard cash, fleet/inventory, and other company assets. - Drive annual budget and rolling forecasts; analyze variances and recommend corrective actions. - Oversee AR/AP, billing, collections, cash management, and disbursements; improve working capital and cash flow visibility. - Prepare and present financial and operational dashboards and insights to the CEO and leadership team. - Ensure accurate accounting for multiple revenue streams (vehicle sales, leasing, rentals, and service/parts), including cut-off and reconciliation to operational data. - Manage fleet and inventory accounting (capitalization, depreciation, disposals, COGS, and reserves) and support operational reporting. - Coordinate external accountants/auditors and tax filings; ensure compliance with applicable federal, state, and local requirements. - Continuously improve finance processes and systems, including ERP/MRP platforms, to increase accuracy, reporting reliability, operational visibility, and scalability. - Lead, coach, and develop the accounting team; create a high-accountability, service-oriented culture. - Provide financial oversight for assigned business operations, including manufacturing, fleet, service, rental, leasing, or sales activities, as applicable. - Support inventory valuation, operational reporting, and financial controls within the ERP/MRP environment. We'll put each as. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO statement, etc. We must not include "Job Title: Controller Classification: Exempt Reports To: CEO Position Type: Full Time Work Location: Headquarters, Kansas City, MO Job Summary:" Actually the Job Summary is part of responsibilities but we already have essential functions. The Job Summary paragraph could be included in About the role or Responsibilities. But we already have About the role covering introductory. We could add Job Summary as part of About the role or Responsibilities. To preserve all substantive info, we should include it somewhere. The Job Summary: "The Controller is the company’s Financial Controller, responsible for the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of financial reporting and for leading day-to-day accounting operations in a fast-paced, growing transportation organization that sells, leases, rents, and services transport vans and buses. This role oversees the monthly close and general ledger, strengthens internal controls, and ensures compliance with US GAAP while providing clear visibility into revenue streams, fleet and inventory performance, manufacturing operations, service operations, working capital, and cash flow. Depending on assigned business unit responsibility, the Controller may support manufacturing accounting, inventory valuation, production reporting, and financial processes within the company's ERP/MRP environment. Partnering closely with the CEO and operational leaders, the Controller delivers budgeting, forecasting, and decision support, and continuously improves finance processes, systems, and the accounting team to scale with the business." That's substantive; we could incorporate into About the role or Responsibilities. Since we already have About the role covering high-level, we could add Job Summary as a paragraph under About the role after the initial paragraphs. Or we could add a separate section but we only have defined headings; we could add to About the role. Thus About the role will include the initial paragraphs plus the Job Summary paragraph. Let's craft About the role content: Paragraph 1: "Help Shape the Future of a Growing Organization Master's Transportation is seeking an experienced Controller to serve as a key financial leader within one of our operating divisions. This is an opportunity to join a growing organization that continues to evolve across vehicle manufacturing, sales, leasing, rentals, and service operations. We're looking for an accounting professional who enjoys solving complex business challenges, building scalable processes, and partnering with operational leaders to drive results.

This is a 100% in-person leadership role in the Kansas City metropolitan area. We believe the strongest partnerships, collaboration, and problem-solving happen when teams work together face-to-face." Paragraph 2 (Why Join Us?): "Great culture, pay, benefits, and investment in your training and development. With Master's Transportation, you can be part of a fast-growing, innovative company. Our new company headquarters located on 40 acres in Kansas City, MO, features a state-of-the-art, climate-controlled facility. The Master's leadership team values our people and supports their growth and positive employee experience. For people looking to contribute, build on their skills, and work together for shared success, it's an exciting time to join the company!" Paragraph 3 (Job Summary): "The Controller is the company’s Financial Controller, responsible for the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of financial reporting and for leading day-to-day accounting operations in a fast-paced, growing transportation organization that sells, leases, rents, and services transport vans and buses.

That covers all. Now Responsibilities: essential functions list. Requirements: required education/experience/certifications. Qualifications
