We need to output HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, scam warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Title: Lead Guide (program leadership role). Not to be used as heading.
- About the role: description: "The best leaders don't measure success by what they accomplish themselves..." etc. Also mention building team, coaching Guides, etc. Also mention not instructional coaching, not classroom teaching. Also mention location: Boston, MA; Raleigh, NC; New York City, NY; Greenwich, CT. Also mention relocation support. Also mention exceptional candidates outside locations encouraged.
- Responsibilities: "What You Will Be Doing" bullet list: Coaching Guides..., Leading engaging life skills workshops..., Motivating students..., Using data..., Helping launch and establish new Alpha campuses...
- What You Won't Be Doing: maybe not needed as responsibilities? Could be included under Responsibilities as negative? But we can include as part of responsibilities? The instruction: Use

- What You Won't Be Doing: maybe not needed as responsibilities? Could be included under Responsibilities as negative? But we can include as part of responsibilities? The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can list duties. The "What You Won't Be Doing" is also a list but maybe not needed; but we could include as responsibilities? It's more about what not to do; but we can skip as not required. However we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include that list as part of responsibilities maybe under a heading "What You Won't Be Doing"? But headings limited to predefined list; we cannot create custom headings besides those. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to fit content into those.
Thus "What You Won't Be Doing" could be placed under Responsibilities as a list of things not to do, but it's still substantive. Could be included as part of Responsibilities.
- Education Program Manager Key Responsibilities: "Ensure every student consistently experiences Alpha's three promises by building high-performing Guides, delivering engaging life skills experiences, and maintaining uncompromising standards for student success." That's also responsibilities.
- Basic Requirements: list: Willingness to work on-site at an Alpha campus (relocation support available): Boston, MA; Raleigh, NC; New York City, NY; Greenwich, CT; Bachelor's degree in Education, Psychology, Business, or related field; Master's degree preferred; At least 5 years of experience in education, coaching, learning and development, or related leadership role; Experience leading and developing teams of five or more people, including hiring and making performance-based termination decisions; Demonstrated success using data to drive performance improvements; Experience working with children ages 5-14 in an educational, coaching, or developmental setting; Experience building or launching a new team, program, business, school, or initiative, with willingness to help open a new campus from zero; Willingness to work in a school model that rejects traditional lecture-based pedagogy; Legal authorization to work in the United States.
- Nice-to-have Requirements: list: Experience coaching youth through athletics, debate, camps, or extracurricular programs; Exceptional public speaking and storytelling skills; A track record of achieving high levels of academic, professional, or athletic performance; Experience motivating teams through ambitious goals while maintaining high accountability; A passion for challenging conventional education and helping shape a new model for K-12 learning.
- About Alpha: description: "Join the team building school around student growth..." etc. Also mention roles, compensation: six-figure roles, culture, etc. Also mention "Working with us": full-time, W2 employee position with immediate access to benefits (link). All roles are year-long positions. The compensation level for this role is $200,000 USD/year. The payment period is weekly. Also mention Crossover Job Code etc (should be dropped as minor metadata). Also mention link to benefits.
Thus we have content for sections:
- About the role: could combine the initial description about role and location etc. Could also include About Alpha? Actually "About the role" vs "About Alpha". The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections to include.
We have:
- About the role: we can put the introductory paragraph(s) describing the role, its purpose, location, etc.
- Responsibilities: the "What You Will Be Doing" list plus maybe the Key Responsibilities sentence and the "What You Won't Be Doing" list.
- Requirements: could be Basic Requirements (mandatory). Could also separate Qualifications vs Requirements? The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide what goes where. Usually Requirements = mandatory, Qualifications = preferred or nice-to-have. But we have Nice-to-have Requirements separate. So we can put Basic Requirements under Requirements, and Nice-to-have under Qualifications (or Skills?). The instruction also includes Skills heading. Could put nice-to-have under Skills. But we have also "Exceptional public speaking and storytelling skills" etc which are skills. So we could put those under Skills. However we also have "Experience coaching youth through athletics..." etc which is experience not skill. Might be better to put nice-to-have under Qualifications.
We need to avoid thin sections. So we can combine.
- Benefits: we have immediate access to benefits, year-long positions, maybe mention benefits link. Also mention relocation support available (though that is more requirement). Could also mention that it's full-time W2 employee.
- Pay: compensation $200,000 USD/year, payment period weekly.
- Schedule: full-time (implied). Not explicitly stated schedule besides full-time. Could we create Schedule section? The posting says "This is a full-time, W2 employee position". That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule: Full-time.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So we only include sections where we have real content.
Thus sections:

Skills
Maybe we can put public speaking etc under Skills. But we already have Qualifications for nice-to-have. Could combine nice-to-have under Qualifications and not have Skills. But we need to decide if we want Skills section. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine nice-to-have into Qualifications and skip Skills. Or we could put public speaking etc under Skills and keep Qualifications for experience/education. Let's see.
We have:
- Basic Requirements (mandatory): includes education, experience, location willingness, legal auth, etc.
- Nice-to-have: includes coaching youth via athletics, public speaking, track record, motivating teams, passion for challenging conventional education.
We could treat Requirements as mandatory, Qualifications as nice-to-have (including skills). That seems fine.
Thus we may not need separate Skills heading.
Benefits: we have immediate access to benefits, year-long positions, relocation support (though that is more requirement). Also mention "All roles are year-long positions." and "immediate access to benefits". Also maybe mention "six-figure roles for people ready to help build a radically better school experience." That's more about compensation.
Pay: $200,000 USD/year, weekly payment.
Schedule: Full-time.
We must not include boilerplate like "Working with us" etc but we need to preserve substantive info: full-time, W2, benefits link, year-long, compensation, payment period. The link to benefits is maybe boilerplate but it's substantive? It's a link to benefits details. We can keep mention of benefits but not the URL? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. The URL is substantive? It's a link to benefits details. Could we keep it as plain text? Probably we can include the URL as part of the benefits description. However the instruction also says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The link is not necessarily boilerplate; it's a benefits link. I'd keep it.
But we need to avoid markdown. Just plain HTML.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We won't.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we will drop that.
Now craft the HTML.
Let's extract the intro text for About the role.
From posting:
"the Great Educational Equalizer" — Philosopher Johnathan Bi, on Alpha School Alpha is hiring. The best leaders don't measure success by what they accomplish themselves. They measure it by what the people around them achieve. If you've built and run programs, managed a P&L or a budget, hired and developed staff, and set the operating standard for a team, this role offers the chance to apply those skills to a K-12 program instead of a business unit. At Alpha, students don't spend their days listening to lectures. They master academics through adaptive technology while Guides focus on coaching, motivation, accountability, and life skills. As a Lead Guide—the title for this program leadership role—you'll build the team that makes this model work: coaching Guides, developing leaders, and creating an environment where students consistently exceed expectations. This is not an instructional coaching role, and it is not classroom teaching. You won't spend your days reviewing lesson plans or observing lectures because there aren't any. Instead, you'll build a culture of excellence by coaching Guides, leading engaging life skills workshops, and motivating students to achieve ambitious goals. Your success will be measured by the quality of students' experiences, your team's performance, and your ability to maintain uncompromising standards while inspiring others to meet them. Alpha is building the world's best K-12 experience. That requires leaders who have already proven they can raise others' performance, make objective, data-driven decisions, and embrace bold new ideas rather than protecting outdated traditions. If that describes you, we'd love to meet you. This role is currently open at select Alpha campuses: Boston, MA; Raleigh, NC; New York City, NY; and Greenwich, CT. If you're located in one of these markets—or excited to relocate—we'd love to hear from you. Exceptional candidates outside these locations are also encouraged to apply. As Alpha continues to grow, we regularly match outstanding leaders with opportunities across our expanding network of campuses.
That's a lot. We'll include that as About the role.
Now Responsibilities: combine "What You Will Be Doing" list and Key Responsibilities sentence and maybe "What You Won't Be Doing" list.
What You Will Be Doing:
- Coaching Guides to consistently deliver exceptional student experiences while maintaining Alpha's high standards.
- Leading engaging life skills workshops that develop communication, leadership, focus, and other real-world skills for K-12 students.
- Motivating students to achieve ambitious learning goals and maximize progress in their self-directed academic programs.
- Using data, observation, and coaching conversations to improve Guide performance and student outcomes.
- Helping launch and establish new Alpha campuses by building a culture centered on excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Key Responsibilities sentence: "Ensure every student consistently experiences Alpha's three promises by building high-performing Guides, delivering engaging life skills experiences, and maintaining uncompromising standards for student success."
What You Won't Be Doing list:
- Teaching traditional academic classes or delivering subject-matter lectures.
- Writing lesson plans or designing curriculum.
- Lowering standards to make students feel successful instead
