We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

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

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. 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 extract content. The posting includes: - General description: description of role. - About DCAC: description of organization. - Essential Duties & Responsibilities: broken into subsections: Major Gift Fundraising, Donor Relationship Management, Foundation Development, Executive & Board Partnership, Campaign Support, Collaboration. - Qualifications: includes Education, Experience, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities, Key Success Metrics (duplicate of Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities?), Core Competencies. - Work Environment: Work Location, Mental and Physical Abilities, Working Conditions, Essential Functions, Core Values. - Benefits: list. - No explicit Pay or Schedule info. There's mention of remote work up to two days per week after 90 days; that's schedule info? It's about remote work days. Could be considered schedule? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. For Schedule, we have remote work permitted up to two days per week after 90 days. That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that detail. Pay: not mentioned. So we should not include Pay section. Benefits: definitely present. So include Benefits section. We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections that have real specific content. Let's see: - About the role: we have general description and about DCAC. That's substantive. - Responsibilities: we have Essential Duties & Responsibilities with subpoints. That's substantive. - Requirements: maybe we have Qualifications? But they separate Qualifications and Skills. The instruction says use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. We have Qualifications section (Education, Experience). Also Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (maybe Skills). Also Key Success Metrics (duplicate). Also Core Competencies. We need to decide what goes into Requirements vs Qualifications vs Skills. Typically Requirements could be education and experience; Qualifications could be knowledge, skills, abilities; Skills could be core competencies? But we need to follow instruction: Use those headings exactly. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content for it. So we need to decide what content fits each. We could treat: - About the role: general description + about DCAC. - Responsibilities: Essential Duties & Responsibilities. - Requirements: Education and Experience (minimum 7-10 years, bachelor's degree required, master's preferred, etc.) - Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (deep understanding, etc.) plus maybe Key Success Metrics (but that's duplicate). We could combine. - Skills: Core Competencies list. - Benefits: benefits list. - Schedule: remote work up to two days per week after 90 days. - Pay: not present, so omit. We must not repeat content. Ensure we preserve all substantive information. Need to include details like portfolio size 125-175, etc. We need to format lists with

    • . For prose use

      . We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines (like Key Success Metrics duplicate). Also remove application instructions (none). Remove cookie/navigation/legal etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. First, About the role: combine GENERAL DESCRIPTION and ABOUT DCAC into prose maybe two paragraphs. Responsibilities: list each duty area with subpoints? Could make a

        with each major duty as
      • and inside maybe sublist? But instruction: Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have top-level list for duties, each duty as
        • containing prose maybe with sub-details. Could also nest lists but not required. Simpler: each duty as
        • with details separated by semicolons or separate sentences. We need to preserve all substantive information: e.g., "Develop and execute a comprehensive major gifts strategy aligned with the Foundation’s annual and long-term fundraising priorities." etc. We'll create a
            with each duty area as
          • and inside maybe
              for subpoints? Might be okay but not required. To keep simple, we can have each duty as
            • and include the bullet points as separate sentences.
