We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: legal notice, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions, cookie/navigation, etc. The description includes "Description & Requirements" then paragraphs. We need to parse content into sections. We have content: - Intro: "The Director, Grants Management Services (GMS) serves as a senior leader within the Grants Management Services practice, providing strategic leadership, business development, client service oversight, and technical expertise across the full grant lifecycle. The Director will act as an Assistant Practice Leader and is responsible for leading complex client engagements, developing team members, driving practice growth, and supporting operational excellence within the GMS practice. The Director works closely with the National Practice Leader to execute strategic initiatives, develop service offerings, manage practice operations, cultivate talent, promote thought leadership, and help achieve the practice's financial and growth objectives. The position serves as a key ambassador for the firm's Grants Management Services capabilities and provides leadership across public sector, healthcare, higher education, nonprofit, tribal, and other grant-funded organizations." That's about the role. Then "What You Will Do" with subheadings: Practice Leadership & Strategy, Business Development & Market Leadership, Client Service & Engagement Leadership, Technical Leadership, Talent Development & Team Leadership. Those are responsibilities. Then "Minimum Qualifications" list. Then "Preferred Qualifications" list. Then "About Forvis Mazars, LLP" description of firm. Then "What We Offer" description of benefits. Then legal notice etc to remove. We need sections: About the role (intro). Responsibilities (the "What You Will Do" content). Requirements (maybe Minimum Qualifications). Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications). Skills (maybe combine some skill statements from Minimum/Preferred? But we have explicit skill statements in Minimum Qualifications: "Excellent written, verbal, presentation, and executive communication skills." Also maybe other skills like "Strong understanding of Uniform Guidance". Those could go under Skills. But we need to decide. We have Benefits: "What We Offer" includes robust total rewards program and flexible work environment. Not specific details like health insurance etc. It's vague but still some content. It says "Our robust total rewards program and flexible work environment reflect our commitment to people, careers, and well-being-empowering our team to grow and thrive while delivering exceptional service." That's somewhat generic but still specific? It's not placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's actual statement about benefits. So we can include Benefits section. Pay and Schedule: not mentioned. So omit. We must not create sections with filler. So include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can format them. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Director, Grants Management Services". Already not. We must not put Job ID etc. We need to remove boilerplate: legal notice, EEO, etc. Also remove "About Forvis Mazars, LLP" maybe? That's about the firm, not required but could be considered part of description? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. The "About Forvis Mazars, LLP" is substantive info about the firm. Should we include? There's no specific heading for "About the company". Not in allowed headings list. Allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we cannot add a heading for About the company. But we could incorporate that info into About the role? Probably not appropriate. However, we must preserve ALL substantive information; but we cannot add new headings beyond allowed list. The instruction: "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, but likely we should only use those headings. It also says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So we can only use those headings. So we must fit all content under those headings. The "About Forvis Mazars, LLP" could go under About the role? Not really. But maybe we can treat it as part of About the role (company context). Or we could omit it? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we omit, we violate. So we need to include it somewhere. Perhaps we can put it under About the role as a paragraph describing the firm. That seems acceptable: About the role includes description of the role and maybe company. The instruction didn't forbid adding extra info there. So we can include the firm description in About the role section. Similarly, "What We Offer" goes to Benefits. Now we need to extract lists. Let's parse sections. About the role: combine intro paragraph(s) and firm description. Intro: "The Director, Grants Management Services (GMS) serves as a senior leader within the Grants Management Services practice, providing strategic leadership, business development, client service oversight, and technical expertise across the full grant lifecycle. The Director will act as an Assistant Practice Leader and is responsible for leading complex client engagements, developing team members, driving practice growth, and supporting operational excellence within the GMS practice. The Director works closely with the National Practice Leader to execute strategic initiatives, develop service offerings, manage practice operations, cultivate talent, promote thought leadership, and help achieve the practice's financial and growth objectives. The position serves as a key ambassador for the firm's Grants Management Services capabilities and provides leadership across public sector, healthcare, higher education, nonprofit, tribal, and other grant-funded organizations." Firm description: "Forvis Mazars, LLP is an independent member of Forvis Mazars Global, a leading global professional services network.

We can combine into one or multiple

    tags. Responsibilities: from "What You Will Do" with subheadings. We need to preserve all details. Could make a

      with each duty as
    • . But we have subheadings; we could keep them as part of
    • text.

We need to ensure we didn't miss any details. Now Requirements: Minimum Qualifications list.

We'll put as
    • . Skills: We could extract skill statements from Minimum and Preferred that are skill-based. But we already have communication skills in Minimum. Also "Strong understanding of Uniform Guidance" is knowledge, could be skill. Also "Proven business development and client relationship management experience" is skill. Also "Experience leading multidisciplinary teams and complex engagements" is skill. Also "Experience managing practice financial performance, forecasting, and resource planning" is skill. Also "Established industry reputation through speaking engagements, publications, or leadership roles" is more achievement. But we might duplicate content if we also put them under Requirements/Qualifications. The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

        for prose. So we could put all requirements and qualifications as lists under Requirements and Qualifications sections. Skills section maybe not needed if we already covered skills in those lists. However, we must include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content for it. If we already covered skills in Requirements/Qualifications, we could still have a Skills section but would duplicate content. Better to omit Skills section if no distinct skill list beyond those already captured. But we have skill statements like "
