This position is expected to raise at least $750,000 annually in unrestricted, restricted, and planned gifts and meet metrics for donor contacts and proposals, with a focus on gifts at $10,000 and higher." That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The bullet list after "About Catholic Charities West Michigan" includes many responsibilities: Identifies, qualifies, cultivates, solicits, and stewards major donors for CCWM. Actively works a donor portfolio of 125+ individuals... etc. Also "Leads planned giving program strategy..." etc. Also "Manages donor software..." etc. Also "Provides and reports on outcome metrics..." etc. Also "Drives for Agency business."

Minimum 1 year prior work experience working in the nonprofit social service sector and demonstrated ability of Catholic giving community required. Minimum 1 year prior campaign work experience preferred. - Qualifications: Possibly the "Professional Certificates, Licenses, and Registrations None required" and "Supervisory Responsibilities This position has no supervisory responsibilities..." Might be considered qualifications? But we can treat as Qualifications. - Skills: The list of abilities: Action and detail-oriented, skilled at inspiring, influencing, and engaging people with a track record of building donor relationships, and closing gifts of $10,000 and higher. Demonstrated ability to strategize, develop, and implement fundraising plans for donors. Ability to conceive and implement creative donor cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship strategies.

Ability to prepare and analyze reports, make presentations, and maintain records. Ability to communicate clearly, effectively, and concisely, both orally and in writing. Ability to work independently and exercise good judgment. Ability to relate to diverse populations and cultures while communicating with clients and the public in a courteous and effective manner.

Must be willing to work irregular hours including evenings, holidays, and weekends. Must submit to agency approved background checks. These are skills/requirements but we can put under Skills. - Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. There's "Flexible work schedule after an initial training period that includes working in the office and out of the office." That's schedule, not benefits. No explicit benefits like health insurance etc. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does not. So omit Benefits. - Pay: Salary Range $75,000.00-$86,625.00. That's present. So include Pay section. - Schedule: "Flexible work schedule after an initial training period that includes working in the office and out of the office." Also mention irregular hours etc. So we have schedule info. So include Schedule section. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

    for section headings. Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

      for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can group them. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Major Gifts Officer". Good. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We might also include "About Catholic Charities West Michigan" as part of About the role? The posting includes a paragraph about CCWM after the responsibilities list. That is more about the organization. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section "About the organization". But the instruction only lists specific headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should fit the CCWM description under About the role perhaps. It's about the organization but we can include it there. We need to ensure we don't miss any details. Let's extract all content pieces: From posting: Paragraph 1: "The Major Gifts Officer focuses on key fundraising efforts that align with our mission, vision, and values. This position is responsible for securing major philanthropic support for annual, campaign, special restricted, and endowment fundraising opportunities of Catholic Charities West Michigan (CCWM). Key responsibilities include the identification, engagement, solicitation, and stewardship of prospects capable of making gifts of $10,000 and more, with increased emphasis and activity cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding gifts in range of $10,000-$100,000. This position plays a pivotal role in growing CCWM’s family of donors by identifying potential major gifts and helping to establish a strong pipeline now and for future fundraising opportunities. This position is expected to raise at least $750,000 annually in unrestricted, restricted, and planned gifts and meet metrics for donor contacts and proposals, with a focus on gifts at $10,000 and higher." Then: "Salary Range $75,000.00-$86,625.00 Flexible work schedule after an initial training period that includes working in the office and out of the office. Are you passionate about discovering new ways to help empower people and make a difference in their lives? If you’ve got what it takes to support us in our mission to provide help and create hope through innovative, collaborative, and diverse programs within the community, then we’ve got the right opportunity for you." Then: "About Catholic Charities West Michigan Catholic Charities West Michigan (CCWM) is a community-based agency providing programs in Western Michigan and offering a variety of services in family preservation, behavioral health, child welfare, and community outreach. CCWM is committed to ensuring a diverse workforce and a work environment whereby all staff are treated with dignity, respect, and fairness.CCWM encourages persons of diverse backgrounds and faiths to apply for employment." Then a list of responsibilities (starting with "Identifies, qualifies, cultivates, solicits, and stewards major donors for CCWM.") each as separate sentence but likely bullet points. Then: "Action and detail-oriented, skilled at inspiring, influencing, and engaging people with a track record of building donor relationships, and closing gifts of $10,000 and higher." etc (skills list). Then: "Education A bachelor’s degree in nonprofit public administration, business administration, marketing, or a related field is required.A master’s degree is preferred. Experience A minimum of 5 years of prior work donor direct experience with a proven track record of securing major gifts of $10,000+ from individual donors is required.A minimum of 1 year of prior work experience working in the nonprofit social service sector and demonstrated ability of Catholic giving community is required.A minimum of 1 year of prior campaign work experience is preferred. Professional Certificates, Licenses, and Registrations None required Supervisory Responsibilities This position has no supervisory responsibilities of direct reports, however does have processes and systems supervisory responsibilities." Then: "Our Mission Inspired by the Church's social teachings, Catholic Charities West Michigan fosters individuals and families to flourish by providing help and creating hope. Our Vision Catholic Charities West Michigan is called to create a just and compassionate community where all people can achieve their divine purpose. Our Values Sanctity of All LifeCompassionIntegrityRespectEquity CCWM is an equal opportunity employer, subject to all federal and state laws as applicable to a religious Agency." We need to remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should omit the line about equal opportunity employer. Also remove any cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. So we will not include that final line. We also need to remove duplicated lines. There's some duplication? Not obvious. Now we need to structure. Section About the role: combine the initial paragraph plus the motivational sentences? The "Are you passionate..." is more like a call to action, maybe part of About the role? It's not a responsibility. Could be considered part of About the role (description). We'll include it as prose. Also include the CCWM description (About Catholic Charities West Michigan) as part of About the role. Thus About the role will have multiple paragraphs. Responsibilities: list bullet points from the responsibilities list. Let's extract each responsibility sentence: - Identifies, qualifies, cultivates, solicits, and stewards major donors for CCWM. - Actively works a donor portfolio of 125+ individuals capable of contributing to the collective annual fundraising goals through meaningful connections and relationships through gift solicitation and stewardship. - Develops and implements strategies to secure gifts of $10,000+ in support of annual operations, special projects, campaign projects, and for the endowment. - Committed to meeting with donors and has strategic contact between 10-15 prospects/suspects per month with a balanced portfolio that identifies, qualifies, cultivates, and stewards donors and donor prospects. - Leads planned giving program strategy and communication in collaboration with Director of Development and Community Outreach. - Builds and maintains an active suspect and prospect pool as defined by the CEO, Board of Directors, and Director of Development and Community Outreach. - Manages donor software to provide accurate, real-time donor and prospect information to the Agency. - Provides and reports on outcome metrics to the CEO and Director of Development and Community Outreach. - Drives for Agency business. - Performs other special assignments at supervisor’s request. We need to ensure we keep all details. Requirements: Education and Experience. Education: "A bachelor’s degree in nonprofit public administration, business administration, marketing, or a related field is required. A master’s degree is preferred." Experience: "A minimum of 5 years of prior work donor direct experience with a proven track record of securing major gifts of $10,000+ from individual donors is required. A minimum of 1 year of prior work experience working in the nonprofit social service sector and demonstrated ability of Catholic giving community is required. A minimum of 1 year of prior campaign work experience is preferred." We could split into two

        lists? The instruction says use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benef
