We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes a paragraph about role. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have description (About the role) content: The Grant Manager role ensures... etc. So we can have
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have description (About the role) content: The Grant Manager role ensures... etc. So we can have About the role
with
containing that description. Responsibilities: we have "Key Responsibilities" with subheadings: Grant Lifecycle Project Management, Cross-Functional Coordination, Funder Communication & Reporting, Systems & Process Improvement. We need to output
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Should we keep subheadings? Probably we can include them as part of list items or separate headings? The instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. So for Responsibilities we can have
Responsibilities
then a- with list items for each duty. Could incorporate subheadings inside li? Probably just list items.
Requirements: The posting has "Requirements Qualifications & Skills" then bullet list. We can separate Requirements and Qualifications/Skills? The instruction says we can have sections Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. But we need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting lumps them together. We could create a single
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we could include physical requirements as list items under Requirements.
But we also have a separate "Physical Requirements" heading in the posting. We could treat that as part of Requirements.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have salary range specific, so Pay section ok.
We must not include duplicated lines. The description repeats "This is a full-time, exempt position..." twice; we should deduplicate.
Let's extract substantive content:
About the role paragraph: "The Grant Manager role ensures all grant lifecycle activities are coordinated, on track, and clearly communicated—from award through closeout—while program teams and program administrators remain responsible for service delivery and performance. The person in this role uses their expert project management skills and broad understanding of Mary’s Place programs, goals and processes to schedule, track, and drive the fulfillment of all grant-related deliverables and provide expertise in the interpretation of and adherence to funder requirements and administrative guidelines. The Grant Manager actively engages in Mary’s Place racial equity work – striving for equitable outcomes and taking responsibility for creating, maintaining, and affirming communities for people of color, immigrants, and refugees, trans and gender-non-conforming people, and other populations who routinely encounter systemic oppressions. This is a full-time, exempt position that reports to the Associate Director of Grants and does not supervise other staff. This is a full-time, exempt, hybrid position that reports to the Associate Director of Grants and does not supervise other staff. It is based in Seattle, WA."
We need to deduplicate: combine: It's a full-time, exempt, hybrid position reporting to Associate Director of Grants, no supervisory duties, based in Seattle, WA.
So About the role paragraph can be: "The Grant Manager role ensures all grant lifecycle activities are coordinated, on track, and clearly communicated—from award through closeout—while program teams and program administrators remain responsible for service delivery and performance. The person in this role uses their expert project management skills and broad understanding of Mary’s Place programs, goals and processes to schedule, track, and drive the fulfillment of all grant-related deliverables and provide expertise in the interpretation of and adherence to funder requirements and administrative guidelines.

Schedule: Full-time, exempt, hybrid position based in Seattle, WA. (though we already mentioned in About the role; but schedule section can still be present with that info; but we might duplicate. The instruction says do not repeat job title as heading, but repeating info is okay? It says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in original? But we should avoid duplicated lines. The schedule info is already in About the role; but we could still include schedule section with that info; it's not a duplicate line exactly but similar. Might be okay. However we could omit Schedule section because the info is already covered; but the instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does have schedule info (full-time, exempt, hybrid). So we should include Schedule section. Even if it overlaps, it's fine.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove that.

Remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Also remove physical requirements? That's substantive? It's about physical demands; could be considered part of Requirements? Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's about physical demands. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Physical requirements might be considered part of job description; not explicitly excluded. Could keep but maybe it's too detailed.
