DPU Hiring Event - Accounting Manager - Fixed Assets Unit - Financial Operations Division

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings where content exists. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, ADA, etc. Must keep substantive info: about the role? The posting includes "About This is an EXCITING time to Join the City of Richmond! ...". That's about the organization. Could be "About the role" or "About". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections have content. We have: - About: description of excitement, commitment, benefits enhancements: Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Language Incentive Referral Bonus Tuition Assistance Program. That's benefits. Also mention hiring event details: date, time, location, note about interview scheduling, background check, drug screening. That could be under "About the role" or maybe "Schedule"? Actually schedule is about hiring event date/time. Could be a "Schedule" section for the event. But the instruction says include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state hiring event date/time. So we can have a Schedule section with that info. - Responsibilities: list of duties (Managing the department's monthly and year-end closing processes... etc). That's a list. - Requirements/Qualifications: includes Minimum training and experience, Preferred training and experience, Licensing, certifications, etc. Could combine into Qualifications section. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills, Abilities sections. Could be Skills section. - Benefits: they listed Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Language Incentive Referral Bonus Tuition Assistance Program. Also maybe other benefits? That's it. - Pay: anticipated hiring range $84,346 - $112,048. - Schedule: hiring event date/time. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, ADA, Environmental Hazards, Physical Requirements, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting that are not boilerplate. We need to format as HTML fragment: use

for section headings,

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

  for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Accounting Manager - Fixed Assets Unit". Not to be used as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We need to decide structure: maybe sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's extract substantive content: From the posting: - "About This is an EXCITING time to Join the City of Richmond! We are committed to nurturing talent, fostering growth opportunities, and building strong connections within our workforce. As we continue to make strides to becoming the employer of choice, we are thrilled about the below employee benefit enhancements: Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Language Incentive Referral Bonus Tuition Assistance Program" So about section includes excitement and commitment, plus mention of benefit enhancements (but we will also have Benefits section). Might be okay to keep that as About. - "Description Join us at the DPU Hiring Event! This position is a part of our hiring event on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Midtown Green . If you're selected to move forward, our department will reach out directly to schedule your interview. Please note this position is subject to a pre-employment background check and/or drug screening." That's description/hiring event details. Could go under Schedule (date/time) and maybe About? But we have Schedule section for date/time. The background check/drug screening is a note; could be included in About or maybe a separate note but we can include in About as prose. - "The anticipated hiring range is $84,346 - $112,048." -> Pay. - "City of Richmond Department of Public Utilities is seeking a qualified Accounting Manager - Fixed Assets Unit will provide oversight over the Department of Public Utilities' fixed asset accounting team. This position will serve as a Liaison with Finance and IT for the customer billing system. This team will maintain the Utilities Book in RAPIDs, Oracle based financial system, Fixed Asset module which records and tracks asset additions, deletions, retirements, cost adjustments, and depreciation. The Accounting Manager will supervise a staff to ensure the Utilities Book is updated timely and accurately and will also oversee reconciliations of the fixed asset subsystem to the general ledger. In addition, the Accounting Manager will oversee any manual depreciation schedules and CWIP schedules.

This position will also be involved in the preparation of DPU's interim and annual financial statements. Accounting Manager will also identify and implement training for their staff as needed. Assists others as needed on various assignments." That's responsibilities/prose. Could be under Responsibilities as prose or list. The duties list follows: "Duties include but are not limited to Managing the department's monthly and year-end closing processes and reconciliations related to fixed assets and CWIP;Providing leadership, training and supervision of staff;Managing division relationships;Initiating disciplinary action when appropriate;Implementing and maintaining proper financial controls;Ensuring financial accounts are reviewed and monitored in accordance with General Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP);Assisting with planning, reviewing, preparing and monitoring routine and special monthly and annual capital spending;Assisting with preparation of rate and county cost of service models;Analyzing, developing, and recommending standard operating procedures for DPU's Fixed Assets;Assisting internal and external auditors." That's a list of duties. - Qualifications: "MINIMUM TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE: Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, business administration, or a related field; MBA or Master's in Accounting preferred; Five years of journey-level professional accounting experience; Two years of supervisory experience; An equivalent combination of training and experience (as approved by the department) may be used to meet the minimum qualifications of the classification." - "Preferred Training And Experience Experience managing fixed assets in an ERP system; Experience with classification of assets; Experience with depreciation of assets; Understanding of audits and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs); Experience with an Oracle based financial system (such as RAPIDS) and/or an ERP system; Audit experience (internal and external) is a plus; Cost Accounting experience is a plus; Microsoft Office Suite experience." - "LICENSING, CERTIFICATIONS, And OTHER SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS CPA preferred" - Knowledge, Skills, Abilities sections: big list. We need to decide how to split into sections: Qualifications (minimum + preferred + licensing), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). Could combine knowledge/skills/abilities into Skills section. We must not create sections with filler. All have content. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, ADA, Environmental Hazards, Physical Requirements, etc. So we will omit those paragraphs. Now produce HTML. We'll have:

  About the role

  ... (about excitement, commitment, benefit enhancements mention, hiring event description, background check/drug screening note)

  • Assisting with preparation of rate and county cost of service models
  • Analyzing, developing, and recommending standard operating procedures for DPU's Fixed Assets
  • Assisting internal and external auditors
  But also there is prose before the list about oversight, liaison, etc. Should we include that as part of Responsibilities? Could add a

  before the list. The instruction: use

  for prose. So we can have a

  with that overview, then

  for duties. Thus:

  We could also make a
  for each list but the instruction says use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For qualifications, we could list each bullet. But we have prose sentences with semicolons. Could convert to list items. Better to follow instruction: any list of duties/requirements/benefits should be
    • . So we should convert the qualifications into list items. Thus:

      list, but it's huge. Might be too long
