Director, Income Tax Reporting & Tax Technology

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if posting has real specific content. The posting includes many sections: Primary Purpose, then bullet-like paragraphs for responsibilities (TAX TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY AND GOVERNANCE, INCOME TAX REPORTING PROCESS SUPPORT, COMPLIANCE, CO-SOURCING AND TAX MODELS, PROCESS EXCELLENCE, CONTROLS AND RISK REDUCTION, LEADERSHIP AND CROSS-FUNCTIONAL COLLABORATION). Then qualifications: Bachelor's degree..., CPA required, 10+ years..., etc. Then "An outstanding professional will have..." (preferred qualifications). Then competencies sections (Our Competencies for All Employees, Our Competencies for All People Managers, etc). Those are generic corporate competencies; they might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Competencies might be considered generic but they are part of posting; not explicitly boilerplate like EEO. However they are repeated sections (Our Competencies for All Employees appears twice). We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. The competencies are specific content (list of competencies). So we should include a section for Competencies maybe. But we need headings: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The instruction says use those example headings, but we can use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should map content to those headings where appropriate. For this posting, we have sections like "Primary Purpose" (could be About the role). Responsibilities: the bullet sections under TAX TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY..., etc. Qualifications: Bachelor's degree..., CPA required, etc. Skills: maybe leadership, analytical, etc. Benefits/Pay/Schedule: not present, so we should NOT include those sections. Also we have "Our Competencies for All Employees" etc. That could be under Skills or maybe a separate section like "Competencies". But the instruction only gave examples; we can still use other headings as long as they are

. It didn't forbid other headings. It said use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those or similar. Probably best to use: About the role (Primary Purpose), Responsibilities (the detailed duty sections), Qualifications (education/experience), Skills (leadership, analytical, etc), Competencies (the list). Avoid Benefits/Pay/Schedule as not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must output only HTML fragment. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Thus we need to convert paragraphs into

  . For lists, we need

  • . We have multiple responsibility sections each with multiple sentences. Could treat each bullet as a list item? The original text is not bullet list but paragraphs with bold headings. We could treat each heading as a

    subsection? But instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So maybe we keep top-level sections as

    , and inside we can have

    prose. For the duty sections, we could keep them as

    paragraphs. But we also need to use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If we have a list, we should use
      . The responsibilities are not explicitly list items but could be considered a list of duties. We could wrap each duty paragraph in
      • inside a
        . Similarly for qualifications: list of requirements (Bachelor's degree..., CPA required, 10+ years..., etc). Those could be list items. Thus structure:

        But we need to preserve all substantive information; we should not truncate with "...". The original had "The successful individual will leverage their proficiency in Tax to..." then it goes into sections. So we should keep that sentence as is (maybe ending with "to"). Actually the text: "The successful individual will leverage their proficiency in Tax to..." then it continues with headings. We should keep that sentence exactly as given (including the ellipsis). It's part of the posting. Thus we include that sentence. Then responsibilities: we could have

Then competencies: maybe

          Competencies

          with two sub-sections? Could combine but we have duplicates. We could list all unique competencies. The posting includes "Our Competencies for All Employees" list (Drive for Results, Customer Focus, Creativity, Interpersonal Savvy, Learning on the Fly, Perseverance, Dealing with Ambiguity). Then "Our Competencies for All People Managers" list (Strategic Agility, Building Effective Teams, Managerial Courage). Then again "Our Competencies for All Employees" list repeated (Courage, Creativity, Customer Focus, Dealing with Ambiguity, Drive for Results). That seems duplicated; we should preserve all substantive information but avoid duplicated lines. The instruction: Remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate. Let's collect unique competencies: From first list: - Drive for Results - Customer Focus - Creativity - Interpersonal Savvy - Learning on the Fly - Perseverance - Dealing with Ambiguity From People Managers list: - Strategic Agility - Building Effective Teams
