Proficiency in personal computer and related software. Solid management and organizational skills. Excellent judgement. Ability to work with limited supervision. Experienced with department budget and personnel communication. Experienced working in grants management and financial management systems. Required Licenses And Certifications: Certified Research Administrator (CRA) (Preferred) Functional Accountabilities: includes sections: Responsible Conduct of Research, Financial Analysis, Financial Services, Grants Management. Those could be considered responsibilities or sub-sections. But we can combine into Responsibilities. Benefits: list: Comprehensive health coverage, including medical, prescription, infertility, and transgender health services. Generous paid time off, including vacation accrual from day one, sick leave, holidays, and a personal day. Financial wellness support, including a 401(k) plan and healthcare and dependent care spending accounts. Employer-paid life, AD&D, and long-term disability coverage, with optional supplemental plans. Additional perks, including tuition assistance, fitness resources, employee assistance, commuter benefits, and more. Why Join Us: maybe not needed as a section; but could be considered "About the role"? Actually "Why Join Us" is more about organization; but we can include as part of About the role? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings. We have: - About the role: maybe a brief overview: The Financial Analyst II Grants works directly with Business Office Leadership and assigned faculty... (the first paragraph). Could be considered About the role. - Responsibilities: detailed duties: analysis and projections, monitoring budgets, recommend adjustments, close out grants, ensure funding received, expenditures not exceed revenue, develop financial planning, cost analysis, projection reports, meet with faculty, ensure compliance, perform comprehensive financial analysis, provide mentorship, etc. Also functional accountabilities: Responsible Conduct of Research, Financial Analysis, Financial Services, Grants Management. Those are responsibilities. - Requirements: Minimum Education and Minimum Work Experience. - Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements? But we have separate headings: Requirements and Qualifications. Usually Requirements = education/experience; Qualifications = skills/knowledge/certifications. We'll assign: Requirements: Education and Experience. Qualifications: Required Skills/Knowledge and Required Licenses And Certifications (CRA preferred). Also maybe Functional Accountabilities? But those are more responsibilities. - Skills: maybe we can put Skills as separate heading for skills list. But we already have Qualifications for skills. The instruction says we can use Skills heading. We need to decide which headings to include based on content. We have content for Skills/Knowledge and Licenses/Certifications. Could put them under Qualifications. Or we could have Skills heading for the skill list, and Qualifications for education/experience? But we already have Requirements for education/experience. Let's follow typical pattern: Requirements = education & experience; Qualifications = skills & certifications. We'll not use Skills heading separately to avoid thin sections. But we could include Skills if we want. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So better to combine. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We have Pay range. Schedule: not mentioned, so omit. Now we need to output HTML fragment with

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

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. We must remove the "Why Join Us" section? It's not boilerplate but it's promotional. Could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to include as part of About the role? But we need to preserve all substantive information. The "Why Join Us" includes statements about nationally recognized excellence, leading pediatric care, innovation & research, mission-driven culture. That's substantive. Should we include it? Possibly under About the role or a separate section like "About the Organization". But allowed headings are limited to those listed. We could include it under About the role as extra prose. That would preserve it. Also the paragraph about disclosed salary range etc is part of Pay section? It's about pay range explanation. Could be included in Pay section as prose. We must remove the EEO statement, Know Your Rights, drug-free workplace policy, etc. Those are boilerplate legal. Remove them. Also remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicated lines like "The FA II provides mentorship for both junior team members as well as new faculty related to appropriate grants financial management." appears earlier and also later? Actually appears earlier in description and also later under Responsibilities? It appears earlier and also later under "Provides mentorship for junior team members." under Financial Services. Might be duplicate but we need to preserve all substantive information; but we can deduplicate? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to detect duplicate sentences and keep only one occurrence. Let's extract the text and identify duplicates.
