We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. There's contact info at end: "Contact Information Karessa Skuse at kskuse@unr.edu". That's maybe application instruction? It's contact info; could be considered application instruction? The instruction says remove application instructions. Contact info might be considered part of application instructions; safer to drop it.

Let's draft sections:
About the role
The University of Nevada, Reno is recruiting for Directors of Development for University Advancement, one supporting the College of Business and one supporting the College of Education. The Director of Development (DOD) is a high-level development professional with knowledge of all aspects of fundraising and substantial fundraising experience. The DOD reports to the Executive Director of Development. These positions will support central development projects as well as development needs for the College of Business and College of Education. The position will actively manage a defined portfolio of major gift prospects and donors by guiding their cultivation, solicitation and stewardship while also growing the base of major gift support through establishment of new relationships. The Directors will build strong and mutually beneficial relationships between donors, friends, alumni, businesses and the community with academic leadership, faculty, and staff. The director is responsible for developing a comprehensive fundraising plan to support the college/school/area funding priorities with a primary focus on gift solicitation at the major gift level of $10,000 and above.
That seems good.
Now Responsibilities: we need to list duties from the C Level and D Level descriptions.
Let's extract bullet points:
From C Level:
- Secures private philanthropic support for the strategic priorities of the college in collaboration with academic leadership and University Advancement.
- Manages a portfolio of major gift prospects and donors, leading the cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship process.
- Expands the pipeline of prospective donors through the development of new relationships.
- Builds strong, collaborative relationships among donors, alumni, friends, businesses, community partners, academic leadership, faculty, and staff.
- Develops and executes a comprehensive fundraising plan that advances the college's priorities, with a primary emphasis on securing major gifts of $25,000 and above.
From D Level:
- Designs and executes a comprehensive fundraising program for an assigned college or school to achieve annual fundraising goals.
- Identifies, cultivates, solicits, and stewards high-net-worth prospects and donors while maintaining and growing a strategic portfolio of major gift donors.
- Develops and implements multi-disciplinary fundraising strategies in partnership with academic leadership and University Advancement to increase philanthropic support for the University.
- Meets annual fundraising objectives.
- Serves as a mentor and resource to other Directors of Development and Associate Directors of Development, sharing best practices and contributing to the continued growth and success of the University's development program.
We can combine overlapping items.
We'll output - for each.
Now Requirements: maybe the "Required Qualifications" heading includes education/experience and related experience. We'll treat that as Requirements.
But we also have separate "Compensation Grade C Level" and "Compensation Grade D level" which are qualifications (education/experience). We could combine them under Requirements or Qualifications.
The instruction: Use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what goes where.
Typically: Requirements = mandatory qualifications (education, experience). Qualifications = preferred qualifications? Skills = specific skills.
We have education/experience for C and D levels. Also "Related Experience" details.
We could put education/experience under Requirements, and related experience under Qualifications? Or we could put all under Requirements and leave Qualifications empty (but we shouldn't emit empty sections). So we need to allocate.
Let's think: The posting includes "Required Qualifications" heading then lists education/experience for C level and D level. Then "Related Experience:" details.
Thus we could treat "Required Qualifications" as Requirements (education/experience). And "Related Experience" as Qualifications (preferred experience). Skills could be relationship-building, fundraising, donor cultivation, etc.
But we also have skills like "relationship-building", "outcome driven", "fundraising databases", "contact reports", "proposal preparation", "metric-driven, results-oriented environment". Those could be Skills.
Thus:
Requirements
Compensation Grade C Level: Bachelor’s Degree and four (4) years of related professional work experience OR Master’s Degree and two (2) years of related professional work experience.
Compensation Grade D level: Bachelor’s Degree and six (6) years of related professional work experience OR Master’s Degree and four (4) years of related professional work experience.
That's the education/experience.
Then Qualifications
Related Experience: Successful professional experience is required, preferably in higher education fundraising, non-profit or in a related field which requires strong relationship-building and outcome driven components.
Substantial fundraising experience which includes demonstrable experience with individuals in either a higher education, athletic development operation, sales team, or other profession that required the candidate to uncover prospects, make outreach, and meet and cultivate and solicit prospects. Experience with fundraising databases, contact reports, and proposal preparation. Experience with a metric-driven, results-oriented environment. Engagement with donors to solicit high level gifts.
We could combine into a list.
But we need to preserve all detail; we can keep as paragraphs.
Now Skills: maybe we list specific skills
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions.
