Grants Manager

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. The posting includes: Introduction (about organization), Benefits, Job Summary (maybe about role), Qualifications, Responsibilities. No explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should not include Pay or Schedule sections. Also maybe Skills could be derived from Qualifications? But we should not invent. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe from Job Summary?), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits. Possibly also "Skills" could be derived from Qualifications but that's repeating. Better to keep Qualifications and maybe "Skills" not needed. The headings list includes Skills but we can omit if no specific skills section. The posting mentions skills in Qualifications but that's part of qualifications. We could still have a Skills section if we extract skill list, but that would be inventing? It's present in Qualifications: "Excellent writing, editing, research, analysis, organization, presentation, time-management, and interpersonal communication skills are required. High-level Microsoft Office skills are essential." That's specific skill content. So we could create a Skills section with those. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But they are separate headings. Might be okay to have both Qualifications and Skills sections. However Qualifications already includes education and experience. Skills could be separate list. Let's decide: We'll include sections: About the role (from Job Summary/intro), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. No Pay or Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for each section heading. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from each section. We need to format lists with

• . For prose, use

  . We must remove boilerplate like EEO statement, etc. Also remove "We are an equal opportunity employer..." line. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to include metadata like LOCATION, STATUS, PROGRAM, REPORTS TO? 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, status, program, reports to in a short paragraph after the heading? Possibly under About the role? But we need to preserve all substantive information. So we should include that info somewhere. Could create a

  under About the role that includes location, status, program, reports to. Or we could make a separate short paragraph before sections. Since we cannot add headings for metadata, we can just include a

  after the job title (but we don't output job title). So maybe start with a

  containing: LOCATION: Louisville, KY; STATUS: Full Time, Salary, Exempt; PROGRAM: Development; REPORTS TO: Director of Development. Then sections. Now content: About the role: Could combine INTRODUCTION and Job Summary. The introduction describes organization mission etc. That's substantive. The Job Summary describes role. We'll put both in About the role section as prose (maybe multiple paragraphs). Ensure we preserve all details. Responsibilities: list from RESPONSIBILITIES section. Need to keep each bullet as

• . The responsibilities are a long paragraph with sentences separated by periods. We need to split into list items. The original has each responsibility as a sentence ending with a period. We'll make each sentence a list item. Qualifications: list from QUALIFICATIONS section. It includes Bachelor’s degree... etc. We'll split into list items. Skills: extract skill list: Excellent writing, editing, research, analysis, organization, presentation, time-management, and interpersonal communication skills are required. High-level Microsoft Office skills are essential. Experience with Microsoft, grant tracking systems and government or foundation application and reporting portals is preferred. Also maybe "Ability to interpret complex funding guidance, coordinate cross-functional contributors, maintain organized documentation, exercise sound judgment, and remain calm and solutions-focused when priorities, deadlines, or requirements shift." That's more like abilities but could be part of Qualifications. We'll keep skills as those explicit skill statements. Benefits: list from BENEFITS section. Need to preserve all items. The benefits list includes many items: Health and Wellness Employee Assistance Plans (EAP), Health and Wellness Program, Medical Coverage, Dental Coverage, Vision Coverage, Flexible Spending Account, Health Spending Account, Short Term Disability, MetLife Legal Plans, Financial Wellbeing, Competitive Compensation Packages, Life Insurance (company paid), 403b retirement plan with company fund matching, Employee discounts, Loan forgiveness options through federal programs (National Health Corp & Public Service Loan Forgiveness), All company paid benefits and paid time off effective day one, Work Culture Commitment Committee, Justice Committee, Integrity Committee, Compassion Committee, Retention Committee, Training & Development, VOA LEAD Program- Leadership Development Program, VOA University - Staff Development, VOA Academy - Clinical Training and Development. We need to keep each as list item. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO statement. Now produce HTML fragment. We'll start with a

  for metadata. Then

  About the role

  with paragraphs: maybe two

  elements: one for organization intro, one for job summary. Then

  Now About the role: First paragraph: INTRODUCTION text: "Volunteers of America Mid-States (VOA) is a non-profit organization spanning four states that creates positive change in the lives of individuals and communities through a ministry of service. We provide housing for families, veterans, and low-income seniors.

When Volunteers of America was founded in 1896, "volunteer" referred to anyone who served others as a vocation through a commitment to a mission. Today, we are still staffed by paid, mission-driven professionals working to create positive change and build thriving communities. Flexibility, teamwork, and fun are some of the reasons our employees are proud to work at VOA! We offer a comprehensive benefits package to employees who meet eligibility requirements."

Working under the direction of the Director of Development and in close partnership with program leadership, Finance, Quality, Compliance, Business Development, and other support departments, the Grants Manager translates organizational priorities and program information into accurate, timely, funder-responsive applications and reliable grant management practices." Now Responsibilities list: need to split sentences. Let's copy responsibilities text: "Manage the full grant pipeline, including opportunity research, vetting, prioritization, assignments, internal deadlines, submission status, award decisions, renewals, reporting requirements, and future funding cycles. Review and interpret RFPs, NOFOs, application instructions, amendments, FAQs, portal requirements, award notices, and grant agreements; translate requirements into clear work plans, checklists, approvals, and deadlines.

Other duties as assigned." We'll make each line a

Demonstrated experience developing clear, persuasive proposals; coordinating detailed submissions; managing multiple deadlines; and maintaining accurate records is required.

The successful candidate must be able to interpret complex funding guidance, coordinate cross-functional contributors, maintain organized documentation, exercise sound judgment, and remain calm and solutions-focused when priorities, deadlines, or requirements shift." We'll make each line a
  • . Now Skills list: we need to extract skill-specific statements. Could combine the skill lines from Qualifications: "Excellent writing, editing, research, analysis, organization, presentation, time-management, and interpersonal communication skills are required." and "High-level Microsoft Office skills are essential." and "Experience with Microsoft, grant tracking systems and government or foundation application and reporting portals is preferred." Also maybe "Ability to interpret complex funding guidance..." but that's more ability. We'll include those three as list items. Now Benefits list: each item as
