We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Job Description Summary (maybe About the role). Responsibilities list. Qualifications (including required and preferred). Working Conditions (Hybrid schedule). Compensation (Pay range). Benefits (What We Offer). Also maybe Skills? Not explicit separate. We can combine Qualifications and Skills? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the role: could be Job Description Summary (Perform tax accounting...). That's substantive. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: maybe Qualifications (required). Could be Requirements heading. - Qualifications: maybe Preferred Qualifications? But we can combine required and preferred under Qualifications? The instruction says we can have Qualifications and Skills separate. We have required qualifications (Bachelor's degree, 8 years experience, etc.) and preferred (Supervisory experience). Also skills: analytical, communication, computer skills. Could put under Skills. - Benefits: What We Offer list. - Pay: Compensation section with salary range and bonus. - Schedule: Working Conditions (Hybrid Tuesday-Thursday in office, fast-paced, deadline-driven, minimal travel). That's schedule info. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal. Also remove "Job Description Summary" maybe not needed as heading; we can put under About the role. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like specific responsibilities bullet points, qualifications details, benefits list, pay range, schedule details. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus produce something like:

About the role

Perform tax accounting, tax reporting and analysis functions. Responsible for applying tax analysis, knowledge and judgment to activities that are diverse and complex. May oversee activities within a specific tax function and/or specialty.

Responsibilities

  • Extract financial data from various tax, accounting, and information systems to perform appropriate analyses.
  • Review and/or prepare tax returns, tax provisions, and financial and management reports (e.g., for tax authorities, shareholders, policyowners, regulatory authorities and management).
  • ... etc. Need to ensure we keep all responsibilities lines exactly as in posting. Let's copy them: Responsibilities: Extract financial data from various tax, accounting, and information systems to perform appropriate analyses. Review and/or prepare tax returns, tax provisions, and financial and management reports (e.g., for tax authorities, shareholders, policyowners, regulatory authorities and management). Draft and/or review technical memos and outlines. Develop non-standard reports and statements. Lead assigned projects including integration of new tax laws and accounting principles. Research complicated tax law and accounting principles. Monitor tax law to ensure data integrity. Perform special analysis and projects as requested. Offer leadership and direction to others. Assist in the evaluation of processes for operational efficiencies and effective risk management. Utilize a thorough understanding of the business to proactively develop tax analysis and reports. Work effectively with other departments/divisions to ensure business issues are resolved for the success of the company. Responsible for adherence to the company's framework of internal controls. May manage staff to achieve performance standards. Develop and motivate staff to achieve effectiveness through mentoring, training, and sharing knowledge. Ensure staff demonstrate appropriate customer service attitudes. We need to keep punctuation exactly. Now Qualifications (required): Bachelor’s degree in accounting or equivalent education/experience Eight years of tax accounting experience In-depth knowledge of assigned tax specialty Analytical and critical thinking skills Excellent communication skills Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline driven environment Advanced computer skills Preferred Qualifications: Supervisory experience We could split into Requirements (required) and Qualifications (preferred) or Skills. But we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Let's map: - Requirements: required qualifications (Bachelor's degree, 8 years experience, in-depth knowledge, etc.) - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications (Supervisory experience) - Skills: analytical and critical thinking, excellent communication, ability to work fast-paced, advanced computer skills (these are skills). However some of those also appear in required qualifications list. To avoid duplication, we need to preserve all substantive information; we can split but ensure not to duplicate content. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's present in source? The source lists them under Qualifications (required) includes those skills. If we split, we might duplicate. Better to keep them together under Qualifications (or Requirements) and not create separate Skills if it would cause duplication. But we can still have Skills heading with those skills, but then we would be repeating content that already appears under Qualifications. Is that allowed? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; it doesn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid unnecessary duplication. However we need to follow the heading list: they gave examples but not mandatory to use all. We can choose to include only sections that have real specific content. We could combine required qualifications and skills under Qualifications heading, and maybe not have separate Skills. Or we could have Requirements (required) and Qualifications (preferred) and skip Skills. That seems reasonable. Thus:

    Requirements

    • Bachelor’s degree in accounting or equivalent education/experience
    • Eight years of tax accounting experience
    • In-depth knowledge of assigned tax specialty
    • Analytical and critical thinking skills
    • Excellent communication skills
    • Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline driven environment
    • Advanced computer skills

    Qualifications

    • Supervisory experience
    Now Benefits: from What We Offer list. Need to capture all items. What We Offer: For eligible employees, we offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support both the personal and financial well-being of our employees. Compensation Benefits Competitive Pay Bonus for Eligible Employees Benefits Package Pension Plan 401k Match Employee Stock Purchase Plan Tuition Reimbursement Disability Insurance Medical Insurance Dental Insurance Vision Insurance Employee Discounts Career Training & Development Opportunities Health and Work/Life Balance Benefits Paid Time Off starting at 160 hours annually for employees in their first year of service. Ten (10) paid holidays per year (typically mirroring the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) holidays). Be Well Company holistic wellness program, which includes Wellness Coaching and Reward Dollars Parental Leave – fifteen (15) days of paid parental leave per calendar year to eligible employees with at least one year of service at the time of birth, placement of an adopted child, or placement of a foster care child. Adoption Assistance Employee Assistance Program Back-Up Care Program PTO for Volunteer Hours Employee Matching Gifts Program Employee Resource Groups Inclusion and Diversity Programs Employee Recognition Program Referral Bonus Programs We need to preserve all. Some lines are headings like "Compensation Benefits", "Competitive Pay", "Bonus for Eligible Employees", "Benefits Package". Might be better to treat as list items. We'll just put each line as
  • . Ensure we keep punctuation. Now Pay: Compensation section. Compensation: The Salary for this position generally ranges between $102,000 - $135,000 annually. Please note that the salary range is a good faith estimate for this position and actual starting pay is determined by several factors including qualifications, experience, geography, work location designation (in-office, hybrid, remote) and operational needs. Salary may vary above and below the stated amounts, as permitted by applicable law.Additionally, this position is typically eligible for an Annual Bonus based on the Company Bonus Plan/Individual Performance and is at the Company’s discretion. We need to keep that as

    under Pay heading. Schedule: Working Conditions: Hybrid (Tuesday - Thursday in office)Fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. Minimal to occasional travel may be required. We need to keep that as

    under Schedule heading. Now also location? Not required as heading; we could fold location into a short

    maybe under About the role? But location is not a heading; we can include as a paragraph after About the role maybe. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we can include a short p. Thus after About the role we could add

    Location: Cedar Rapids, IA

    . Now ensure we removed boilerplate: "Job Description Summary" we turned into About the role. "Job Description Responsibilities:" we turned into Responsibilities heading. "Qualifications:" we turned into Requirements and Qualifications. "Working Conditions:" we turned into Schedule. "Compensation:" we turned into Pay. "What We Offer" we turned into Benefits. Also we need to remove "Disclaimer: Beware of fake job offers!" etc. Also remove "This job description is not a contract..." etc. Also remove "Managers may assign other duties..." etc. Also remove "In the event an employee..." etc. Also remove "What We Offer For eligible employees..." we kept benefits but removed the introductory sentence? We kept the list; we could keep the introductory sentence as part of Benefits

    maybe. But we can incorporate as part of Benefits

    then list. The instruction: Use

    for prose. So we could have a

    describing the benefits package then

      for list. Thus Benefits section:

      Benefits
