We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have "About The Position" heading. Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content.
We have:
- Who We Are: description of organization. Could be "About the role"? Actually "Who We Are" is about organization, not role. Might be considered "About the role"? But we have "About The Position". That is about the role. So we can put that under
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content.
We have:
- Who We Are: description of organization. Could be "About the role"? Actually "Who We Are" is about organization, not role. Might be considered "About the role"? But we have "About The Position". That is about the role. So we can put that under About the role
maybe.
- The Details: In-Office Requirements, Remote Work Eligibility, Category, Physical Requirements. These could be under "Requirements" or "Qualifications"? Might be "Requirements". We'll include a section "Requirements" with those details.
- About The Position: description of role responsibilities. Could be "Responsibilities". We'll put that under Responsibilities
.
- You Will: list of duties. That's also responsibilities. Could combine with About The Position. But we need to avoid duplication. We'll keep "Responsibilities" containing the bullet list from "You Will". Also maybe include "About The Position" prose as part of responsibilities.
- You Will Need To Have: required competencies, education, experience, skills. That's "Qualifications" or "Requirements". We'll put under Qualifications
.
- It Will Be Great If You Have: preferred qualifications. Could be under same Qualifications or separate "Preferred Qualifications". But we only have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put required under Qualifications, preferred under Skills? Or combine. Probably better: Qualifications for required, Skills for preferred? But we have "Skills" heading. Could put preferred qualifications under Skills.
- Salary Range: Pay section.
- Benefits: Benefits section.
- No schedule info besides standard business hours Monday-Friday 8:30-5:00 and up to 10% presence. That's schedule info. So we can put Schedule section.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO statement. Remove that.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We must preserve all substantive information.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". All sections we create must have real content.
Let's extract content.
Who We Are: paragraph about mission. Could be placed under "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes who we are and about the position. But we have separate "About The Position". We'll treat "About the role" as combination of Who We Are and About The Position? Might be okay.
But we need to avoid duplication. Let's decide:
Section headings we will output:
-
About the role
: include Who We Are paragraph and About The Position paragraph (maybe combined). Use for prose.
-
Responsibilities
: include the bullet list from "You Will". Use - .
-
Qualifications
: include required education/experience/competencies from "You Will Need To Have". Use - for each bullet? The text is a paragraph with semicolons. We need to split into list items. We'll parse each item separated by semicolon? The text: "Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience;7+ years of progressively responsible accounting, finance, or financial management experience.Previous supervisory or management experience;Extensive knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), nonprofit accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls;Experience leading organizational budget development and budget administration processes;Experience managing annual audits and serving as the primary organizational contact for auditors;Exceptional analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills;Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including financial analysis, lookups, and pivot tables;Proficiency with financial systems, accounting software, and Microsoft Office applications;Excellent interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills;Ability to communicate complex financial information in a clear and understandable manner to non-financial audiences;Ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines in a dynamic environment;Self-motivated with a commitment to continuous learning and process improvement."
We need to split into items. We'll create
- for each.
-
Skills
: include preferred qualifications from "It Will Be Great If You Have". Also maybe include some skills like CPA, experience overseeing outsourced accounting functions, etc. We'll list each as - .
-
Benefits
: list benefits from "Benefits". Use - .
-
Pay
: include salary range. Use .
-
Schedule
: include In-Office Requirements, Remote Work Eligibility, Category, Physical Requirements? Actually schedule includes standard business hours and in-office presence. We'll put In-Office Requirements and Standard business hours. Remote Work Eligibility maybe also schedule? Could be under Schedule as well. Physical Requirements maybe under Requirements? But we already used Requirements? We didn't use Requirements heading. We could use Requirements for In-Office, Remote, Category, Physical. But we already used Qualifications and Skills. We have headings list includes Requirements. We haven't used it yet. Let's use Requirements for the logistical details: In-Office Requirements, Remote Work Eligibility, Category, Physical Requirements. Then Schedule for standard business hours? Actually schedule is standard business hours Monday-Friday 8:30-5:00. Could be under Schedule. But we also have In-Office Requirements (up to 10% presence). That's also schedule-ish. Might combine.
We need to decide: Use Requirements for eligibility and physical; Schedule for hours.
Let's map:
Requirements
: In-Office Requirements (up to 10% presence at Downtown Seattle headquarters), Remote Work Eligibility (states list), Category (Full-Time, FLSA Exempt, Regular, Non-Union), Physical Requirements (must be able to perform tasks that may require prolonged periods of sitting or standing, with or without reasonable accommodation).
Schedule
: Standard business hours Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
We must not create sections with filler. All have content.
Now we need to ensure we don't duplicate content: We already used About the role (Who We Are + About The Position). Responsibilities (You Will). Qualifications (You Will Need To Have). Skills (It Will Be Great If You Have). Benefits, Pay, Schedule, Requirements.
Check that we haven't missed any substantive info: The "About The Position" paragraph we used in About the role. The "You Will" list we used in Responsibilities. The "You Will Need To Have" we used in Qualifications. The "It Will Be Great If You Have" we used in Skills. Benefits list we used. Salary range we used. In-Office Requirements, Remote Work Eligibility, Category, Physical Requirements we used in Requirements. Standard business hours we used in Schedule.
We removed EEO statement.
Now format HTML.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll produce:
