Financial Assistant
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Include a section only when posting has real specific content. Remove boilerplate etc.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Requirements: "The ideal candidate will possess the following qualifications: High school diploma or GED, One – three years' experience in accounting or any equivalent combination of experience and training"
- Hybrid Role - position requires 1-2 days per week onsite in Coraopolis, PA. Are you looking for an opportunity to advance your career while working with an extraordinary team? At Merakey, we put heart and soul into everything we do. We are seeking a Financial Assistant to join our IDD team in our Coraopolis, PA location. Earn $20.87/hour This is a hybrid position: 2-3 days in office per week and the rest working remotely.
- Position Overview: This employee is responsible for analyzing various accounts, performing budget to actual cost comparisons, researching overruns, internal billing procedures and generating various reports. Work is checked during preparation processes, and this employee is supervised by the Finance Manager.
- General Duties/Responsibilities: list of duties (many sentences). We need to extract as list items.
- Benefits: list of benefits.
- About Merakey: description.
- Also there is "Earn $20.87/hour" -> Pay.
- Hybrid schedule: "Hybrid Role - position requires 1-2 days per week onsite in Coraopolis, PA." and later "This is a hybrid position: 2-3 days in office per week and the rest working remotely." So schedule info: hybrid, 1-2 days onsite per week (or 2-3 days in office). We need to decide which to include. Both statements: first says 1-2 days per week onsite; later says 2-3 days in office per week. Slight conflict. We need to preserve all substantive information; we can combine? Probably we can include both statements as part of schedule description. But we must not invent. We can put schedule section with description: "Hybrid role requiring 1-2 days onsite per week in Coraopolis, PA (alternatively described as 2-3 days in office per week with the rest remote)." However that might be summarizing. Better to keep both statements as separate sentences in a
. That's okay.
- Pay: "$20.87/hour". Provide as
.
- Benefits: list.
- About the role: maybe we have "Position Overview" and "General Duties/Responsibilities". Could be "About the role" section includes position overview and maybe hybrid role description. But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- Requirements: we have qualifications (high school diploma/GED, 1-3 years experience). That's both Requirements and Qualifications overlapping. The posting says "Requirements The ideal candidate will possess the following qualifications: ...". So we can treat that as Requirements (or Qualifications). We need to avoid duplicate sections. We can put Requirements section with that content. Qualifications maybe not needed if same. But we could split: Requirements: maybe the hybrid location? Actually hybrid role is schedule. Qualifications could be the education/experience. We'll decide.
- Responsibilities: we have Position Overview and General Duties/Responsibilities. So we can put Responsibilities section with those duties as list.
- Skills: not explicitly listed. Could infer but we should not invent. So omit Skills.
- Benefits: we have list.
- Pay: we have "$20.87/hour".
- Schedule: we have hybrid role description.
- About the role: maybe we can include Position Overview as About the role? But we already used Position Overview in Responsibilities. Could also have About the role summarizing the role purpose. But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Position Overview and General Duties/Responsibilities into Responsibilities. Then About the role could be the introductory paragraph about Merakey and the team? Actually "About Merakey" is separate. The posting includes "Are you looking for an opportunity to advance your career while working with an extraordinary team? At Merakey, we put heart and soul into everything we do. We are seeking a Financial Assistant to join our IDD team in our Coraopolis, PA location." That could be About the role (or About Merakey). But we also have a separate "About Merakey" paragraph later. So we could have About the role: that introductory sentence about seeking Financial Assistant, team, etc. And About Merakey: description of organization.
Thus sections:
- About the role: includes the sentence(s) about seeking Financial Assistant, team, location, hybrid, pay? Actually pay maybe separate. We'll keep pay separate.
- Responsibilities: includes Position Overview and General Duties/Responsibilities (list).
- Requirements: includes education/experience.
- Benefits: list.
- Pay: "$20.87/hour".
- Schedule: hybrid description.
- About Merakey: description.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, zero-tolerance, etc. Remove those.
Also remove "Click here to watch a video about Merakey." That's likely boilerplate navigation; remove.
Also remove "Merakey strictly follows a zero-tolerance policy for abuse." etc.
Also remove "Merakey is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer!" etc.
Also remove "Moreover, we are committed to creating teams..." etc.
Also remove "Merakey welcomes all Veterans to apply!" etc.
Now we need to format.
We'll produce:
About the role
We are seeking a Financial Assistant to join our IDD team in our Coraopolis, PA location. This is a hybrid position: 2-3 days in office per week and the rest working remotely.
But we also have schedule separate; maybe we keep schedule separate and not duplicate. However the About the role currently includes hybrid description; maybe we should keep schedule separate and not duplicate. Let's keep About the role just the introductory sentence about seeking Financial Assistant, team, location. Then schedule separate.
Thus:
About the role
We are seeking a Financial Assistant to join our IDD team in our Coraopolis, PA location.
Responsibilities
- Analyze various accounts, perform budget to actual cost comparisons, research overruns, internal billing procedures and generate various reports.
- Work is checked during preparation processes, and this employee is supervised by the Finance Manager.
- Assist the Budget Manager in the preparation of financial reports.

- Assist departmental personnel with budget activity, proper expenditure coding, document preparation and other accounting-related activities.
- Assist with budget preparation, documentation gathering.
- Perform other related duties as required.
But we need to avoid duplication: Position Overview sentence is similar to first bullet. We can combine.
We have to preserve all substantive information; we must not lose any. Let's list all duties from the text:
From Position Overview: "This employee is responsible for analyzing various accounts, performing budget to actual cost comparisons, researching overruns, internal billing procedures and generating various reports. Work is checked during preparation processes, and this employee is supervised by the Finance Manager."
From General Duties/Responsibilities list (the block after "General Duties/Responsibilities"):
- assist the Budget Manager in the preparation of financial reports.
- analyze various general ledger accounts.
- Prepares internal billing, tracks special services usage and tracks temporary service usage.
- Maintain work papers, schedules and other detailed information, as required.
- Has working knowledge of input into computer programs for the general ledger and financial statements.
- Assists at year end to include preparing schedules, providing explanation of supporting materials and procedures and preparing any other necessary data.
- Maintains records of all financial documents with appropriate supporting material. Updates records as necessary.

- Assists departmental personnel with budget activity, proper expenditure coding, document preparation and other accounting-related activities.
- Assists with budget preparation, documentation gathering.
- Performs other related duties as required.
We need to ensure we keep all. Also note capitalization variations; we can normalize.
We'll produce list items for each distinct duty.
Now Requirements: "High school diploma or GED, One – three years' experience in accounting or any equivalent combination of experience and training". We'll put as list.
Benefits: list from text:
- DailyPay -- access your pay when you need it!
- Retirement plan -- both pre-tax and Roth (after-tax) options available for employee contributions.
- Voluntary limited benefits offered through the American Worker. Offerings include limited* medical, dental, vision, disability and life insurance. (*not a substitute for major medical insurance)
- Confidential counseling, legal, and financial services through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
- Enjoy our On the Goga well-being platform, featuring self-care tools and resources.
- Employee discounts and savings programs on entertainment, travel, and lifestyle.
- Access to Pryor Online Learning for free online personal development classes.
Note there is a backslash before Enjoy? In text: "\Enjoy our On the Goga well-being platform". Likely a formatting error; we should output "Enjoy our On the Goga well-being platform, featuring self-care tools and resources."
Pay: "$20.87/hour"
Schedule: we have two statements: "Hybrid Role - position requires 1-2 days per week onsite in Coraopolis, PA." and "This is a hybrid position: 2-3 days in office per week and the rest working remotely." We'll combine maybe as two sentences.
Thus:
Schedule
Hybrid role requiring 1-2 days onsite per week in Coraopolis, PA (alternatively described as 2-3 days in office per week with the remainder remote).
But that is summarizing; maybe better to keep both sentences separate:
Hybrid role - position requires 1-2 days per week onsite in Coraopolis, PA.
This is a hybrid position: 2-3 days in office per week and the rest working remotely.
That preserves both.
About Merakey: we have paragraph: "Merakey is a non-profit provider of developmental, behavioral health, and education services. More
