Financial Controller (ABA Healthcare)
for each section. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove application instructions (none). Also remove the "Our Commitment to Diversity" EEO block.
We need to include the location? It's under "Financial Controller (ABA Healthcare) Location: St. Louis, MO". This is minor metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include location in a
maybe after the heading? Probably include a short paragraph with location and compensation? But compensation is its own section.
We need to include Compensation section: Pay. Provide the range.
We need to include Skills? The posting includes Skillset: must be comfortable with RCM and building data dashboard. That's a skill. Could be under Skills section. Also maybe under Requirements we have Education, Certification, Experience, Skillset. We could separate into Requirements (education, certification, experience) and Skills (skillset). Or combine. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have Requirements (including education, certification, experience) and Skills (skillset). Or we could have Requirements covering all. But we have separate headings list: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Qualifications maybe similar to Requirements. We need to decide.
The posting has "Top Requirements" with bullet items: Education, Certification, Experience, Skillset. That could be considered Requirements. Qualifications maybe not separate. Skills could be separate but we already have skillset under Requirements. To avoid thin sections, we could combine Education, Certification, Experience into Requirements, and Skillset into Skills. Or we could put all under Requirements and omit Skills. Since we have a Skills heading available, we could use it for skillset. That seems reasonable.
Thus sections:
- About the role (prose)
- Responsibilities (list)
- Requirements (Education, Certification, Experience) maybe as list.
- Skills (Skillset) maybe as list or prose.
- Pay (Compensation) maybe as prose.
We should not include Benefits or Schedule.
We need to preserve all substantive info: include the description of the role, responsibilities bullet points, requirements bullet points, skillset, compensation.
We need to format lists properly.
Let's extract the About The Role paragraph:
"As our Financial Controller, you are the vital link between our clinical excellence and our organization's financial health. You don’t just report on the numbers; you own the full financial performance and strategic clarity of the organization. In this role, you will have ultimate ownership over our profitability, revenue accuracy, and budget performance. By partnering closely with our CEO, Clinical Leadership, and Operations teams, you will ensure our growth is sustainable, intentional, and backed by high-level financial decision-making. Your mission is to provide the "cash clarity" and data-driven insights needed to scale our impact with confidence."
We'll put that in
.
Responsibilities: many bullet points under "Key Responsibilities" sections with headings like Financial Leadership & P&L Ownership, ABA Revenue & BCBA Performance Alignment, RCM & Collections Oversight, Budgeting, Forecasting & Growth Planning, Cash Flow & Owner-Level Financial Clarity, Expense Management & Cost Control, Systems, Reporting & Visibility, Cross-Functional Leadership, Financial Decision-Making & Ownership, Compensation, Incentives & Leader Support, Compliance & Risk. Each has sub-bullets. We need to turn each bullet into
- . The headings within responsibilities could be treated as maybe or just part of the li text. Since we need
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a single
with each responsibility as - containing the heading and its details. Or we could nest lists but spec only says use
- for any list. We'll just make a flat list.

Now Requirements: Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting or Finance. Certification: CPA. Experience: 5+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience preferred. Healthcare experience (specifically ABA or multi-site clinics) is a massive plus.
We'll make a
with each as - .
Skills: Skillset: You must be comfortable with RCM (Revenue Cycle Management) and building data dashboard.
We'll make a
with that as - or just
. Since it's a list of skills, we can use
- .
Pay: Compensation: $110,000-$145,000. We'll put in
.
We should also include location maybe as a short
after About the role? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can add a
with "Location: St. Louis, MO". Could be after About the role.
We must not include any boilerplate like EEO etc.
Now output HTML fragment only.
