Director & Actuary

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content exists. Must use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "What You Can Expect In This Role" etc? Actually we need to preserve substantive information. The posting includes sections: "What You Can Expect In This Role" (intro), "What You'll Do In This Role" (responsibilities), "What We're Looking For" (requirements/qualifications/skills), "Other Requirements", "Salary Range Information", "What you can expect when you join Sammons Financial Group" (benefits), "Work Authorization/Sponsorship", "Additional Information" (EEO etc). We need to filter out boilerplate: Work Authorization/Sponsorship (immigration sponsorship) maybe not boilerplate? It's a requirement about sponsorship; could be considered part of Requirements? It's a specific condition. We'll include maybe under Requirements? But we have to follow headings: we can have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Schedule not present (no schedule info). We should not create empty sections. We need to extract substantive content. Let's parse: Intro: "What You Can Expect In This Role Responsible for an actuarial function that may support a specific business unit or may support multiple business units. May lead a team of actuaries and/or analysts to develop processes and tools in line with best practices. Provide leadership, oversight, and direction on analysis and documentation, develop recommendations and present to management to drive decisions. Prioritize the team's work, providing technical guidance and reviewing the results. Manage multiple projects and work collaboratively with other departments. Understand Sammons Financial Group (SFG) Member Companies' and business unit financial goals and objectives and deliver results that support those objectives. Lead special projects as directed. Manage corporate actuarial governance and controls processes and serve as the primary point of contact for internal and external audits; drive the continued development of the department’s analytical tools, data processes, and artificial intelligence capabilities." That's about the role. Then "What You'll Do In This Role" is a long list of responsibilities. We'll combine into Responsibilities section. Then "What We're Looking For" includes bullet-like sentences: Bachelor's Degree preferably in the area of mathematics, or a business related field Required 8-10 years' experience in the field of Actuarial Science Preferred Experience leading projects and/or supervising work of others Preferred Demonstrate a superior level of mathematical ability and attention to detail and strong analytical skills Demonstrate strong computer skills including proficiency in the use of applicable technical tools Demonstrate strong written and verbal communication skills including the ability to present highly technical information to non- technical audiences Ability to apply insurance industry knowledge, preferably in the fields of individual life and annuities Ability to identify and direct the analysis of problems or questions and provide recommendations to appropriate audiences Ability to work both individually and as part of a team Highly organized with the demonstrated ability to prioritize multiple projects and to switch priorities as necessary Ability to work effectively in an office environment Commitment to embrace SFG shared values (Respect, Accountability, Integrity, and Openness) FSA Will consider near-FSA or actively pursuing completion of FSA or career ASA Preferred Then "Other Requirements" includes background check, credit check, fingerprinting etc. That's also requirements. Then "Salary Range Information" includes salary range. Then "What you can expect when you join Sammons Financial Group" includes benefits. We need to map to headings: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (what you'll do), Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe FSA etc), Skills (technical/communication), Benefits, Pay. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert the responsibilities into list items. Also requirements/qualifications/skills/benefits into list items where appropriate. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each point. We need to decide how to split into sections. Let's extract responsibilities list from "What You'll Do In This Role". It's a long paragraph with many sentences separated by periods. We can split each sentence into a list item. Similarly for requirements: we have bullet-like sentences. Qualifications: maybe FSA etc. Skills: maybe computer skills, communication skills, analytical capabilities. But we need to avoid duplication. The posting repeats some skills in both "What We're Looking For" and later "Strong communication skills necessary..." etc. We need to preserve all but avoid duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." If we duplicate same info, that's okay as long as it's present in original. But we should not invent. Duplication is okay if it's in original. However we should try to avoid redundant duplication? Not required. But we can keep as is. Better to follow the headings: About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list from "What You'll Do In This Role"). Requirements (education/experience). Qualifications (FSA etc). Skills (technical/communication/analytical). Benefits (list from benefits paragraph). Pay (salary range). Schedule not present. We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Work Authorization/Sponsorship" etc. That's not a standard heading; we could incorporate into Requirements maybe? But it's about sponsorship; it's a requirement. Could be included under Requirements as a list item: "Work authorization: candidates needing immigration sponsorship not considered". However the instruction says remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The work authorization/sponsorship is not exactly boilerplate but it's a requirement about sponsorship. It's not EEO. I'd keep it under Requirements. Additional Information includes EEO etc which we must remove. Thus we will not include the Additional Information section. Now let's craft HTML. We'll start with

  About the role

  then

  with the intro paragraph (maybe we keep as single paragraph). Then

  Responsibilities

  then
  • each responsibility sentence. We need to split responsibilities sentences accurately. Let's copy the responsibilities text: "Manage corporate actuarial governance and controls processes; serve as the primary point of contact for internal and external audits. Drive the continued development and enhancement of the department’s analytical tools and data processes, including Power BI reporting and Alteryx workflows, to improve efficiency and support analysis of policyholder behavior.

As stated within the Company Attendance and Punctuality policy, regular attendance is required and expected in order to meet the business service levels and workflow demands. Participate in other initiatives and/or projects as necessary." We need to split by periods. Some sentences have semicolons; we can keep as one sentence. We'll produce list items for each sentence. Now Requirements: from "What We're Looking For" first part: Bachelor's Degree preferably in the area of mathematics, or a business related field Required 8-10 years' experience in the field of Actuarial Science Preferred Experience leading projects and/or supervising work of others Preferred Demonstrate a superior level of mathematical ability and attention to detail and strong analytical skills Demonstrate strong computer skills including proficiency in the use of applicable technical tools Demonstrate strong written and verbal communication skills including the ability to present highly technical information to non- technical audiences Ability to apply insurance industry knowledge, preferably in the fields of individual life and annuities Ability to identify and direct the analysis of problems or questions and provide recommendations to appropriate audiences Ability to work both individually and as part of a team Highly organized with the demonstrated ability to prioritize multiple projects and to switch priorities as necessary Ability to work effectively in an office environment Commitment to embrace SFG shared values (Respect, Accountability, Integrity, and Openness) FSA Will consider near-FSA or actively pursuing completion of FSA or career ASA Preferred We need to split into list items. Some sentences are missing punctuation; we can treat each line separated by spaces? Better to split by capital letters? Might be messy. Instead we could keep as a paragraph? But rule: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make list items. We can approximate by splitting at each capitalized phrase that starts a new requirement. Let's try to identify each requirement: - Bachelor's Degree preferably in the area of mathematics, or a business related field - 8-10 years' experience in the field of Actuarial Science - Experience leading projects and/or supervising work of others - Demonstrate a superior level of mathematical ability and attention to detail and strong analytical skills - Demonstrate strong computer skills including proficiency in the use of applicable technical tools - Demonstrate strong written and verbal communication skills including the ability to present highly technical information to non- technical audiences - Ability to apply insurance industry knowledge, preferably in the fields of individual life and annuities - Ability to identify and direct the analysis of problems or questions and provide recommendations to appropriate audiences - Ability to work
