Albuquerque Community Foundation · Albuquerque, NM · 4 wk ago
On-siteOTHR$80k–$90k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have "About the Albuquerque Community Foundation & New Mexico Community Trust". That's about the organization, not role. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the Albuquerque Community Foundation & New Mexico Community Trust (organization description). Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have description of organization. Could use "About the organization" but not in list. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It says e.g., not exclusive. So we can use other headings if appropriate? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect those headings. But we can also use "About the organization" maybe not. Safer to stick to those headings. However we have content about organization; we could put that under "About the role"? Not exactly. But maybe we can treat "About the Albuquerque Community Foundation & New Mexico Community Trust" as "About the role" (though it's about organization). The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". So we can have a heading "About the role" and then include the organization description there. That seems okay. Then responsibilities: we have "Main Job Responsibilities:" with bullet-like paragraphs. We'll extract each responsibility as list items. Then qualifications and skills: we have "Qualifications and Skills Required:" with subparts: Education & Experience, Knowledge..., Alignment..., Technical & Communication Skills, Work Style, Other. We can combine into Requirements and Qualifications sections? The instruction lists Requirements and Qualifications as separate possible headings. We could put "Requirements" for education/experience, and "Qualifications" for skills? Or we could combine. Better to follow typical: Requirements = education/experience, Qualifications = skills & attributes. But we have many subcategories. We also have Pay: Salary: $80,000 - $90,000/year | Commensurate with Experience, competitive benefits package. The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state salary range and mentions benefits package. So we can include a Pay section with salary range. Benefits: they mention "competitive benefits package" but no details; that's vague. Should we include Benefits section? The instruction says never create Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It states "competitive benefits package" but no specifics. That's still a statement of benefits existing, but no detail. Might be considered filler? It says avoid placeholder text like "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". "competitive benefits package" is not placeholder but still vague. However they said never create Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state that there is a competitive benefits package. So we could include Benefits section with that statement. But we need to avoid filler/placeholder text. "competitive benefits package" is not placeholder but still generic. Might be okay. Schedule: they mention hybrid work environment, option to work from home two days a week, evening/weekend irregular hours may be required, reimbursable travel etc. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. We also have Work Environment details; could be part of Schedule or separate? Not required. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details about responsibilities, qualifications, skills, pay, benefits, schedule, work environment maybe. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like "manage a portfolio of donor prospects", etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll structure:

    But note some items like "All staff are encouraged..." is more of a value; could be under Qualifications? But it's fine.
