Paralegal

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must include only sections with real specific content. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Also remove "Work Environment", "Physical Requirements", "Trew EEO Statement", "Other Duties". Those are boilerplate? The instructions: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Work Environment" and "Physical Requirements" might be considered not boilerplate but maybe they are part of job description; but they might be considered generic. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The "Work Environment" and "Physical Requirements" are substantive? They describe remote/hybrid, 3 days in office, sitting, lift up to 15 pounds. That seems substantive. Should we keep? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. It does not say to remove Work Environment or Physical Requirements. So we should keep them as sections if they have content. However the instruction also says: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not limited to those. We can use any appropriate heading. We need to decide headings: maybe "About the role", "Responsibilities", "Required Skills/Abilities", "Education & Experience", "Work Environment", "Physical Requirements". Also maybe "Licensing", "Lien Waivers", "Bonds & Insurance", "Customer Compliance Portals", "Legal Department Operations" are subparts of responsibilities. But we can keep them under Responsibilities as list items. The instruction: Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. So we can have a Responsibilities section with a

  containing the duties. The duties are many bullet-like sentences. We can break them into list items. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must not include Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting does not mention pay, schedule (except remote/hybrid 3 days in office) - that's schedule? It mentions schedule indirectly: "full-time role", "remote/hybrid position with approximately 3 days in office per week". That's schedule info. Should we create a Schedule section? The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The posting does have schedule info: full-time, remote/hybrid 3 days in office. That's specific. So we could include a Schedule section. However the examples given for headings include Schedule. So we could add a Schedule

  Schedule

  with

  Full-time role; remote/hybrid with approximately 3 days in office per week.

  . That seems appropriate. Benefits: not mentioned. Pay: not mentioned. So we omit those. Now we need to decide sections: About the role (maybe a summary paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Required Skills/Abilities (list). Education & Experience (list or prose). Work Environment (maybe part of Schedule? but we have separate). Physical Requirements (list). Schedule (as above). Also maybe "Licensing", "Lien Waivers", etc could be subheadings under Responsibilities but not required. We'll keep Responsibilities as a single list. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties listed. Let's extract duties from the text: Under "Duties/ Responsibilities" there are sections: Contractor Licensing & Registration - Day-to-day management and timely completion of company licensing and registration requirements (e.g., Secretary of State registrations; contractor, trade, engineering-firm, and business licenses; mechanical/electrical contractor licenses) for Trew and its affiliated companies, including the surety bonds and insurance certificates required to obtain and maintain those licenses - Administer the third-party business license management database (BLMS) and the vendor relationship, including submitting and tracking license applications, renewals, and support requests - Maintain the Licensing Watchlist for the Sales and Proposal teams – the states in which the company lacks one or more licenses needed to bid conveyor and/or electrical scopes of work - Maintain the in-house installation capacity tracker for the Installation team (where the company may perform conveyor, electrical, and vertical conveyor installation with its own employees) and the state and local subcontractor licensing requirements tracker for the Sourcing team - Research state and local contractor and trade licensing statutes, regulations, and code adoption (e.g., National Electrical Code) and answer questions from Installation, Field Service, Sourcing, and Sales about whether a specific scope of work (e.g., electrical rewiring, mechanical reinstallation) may be self-performed or must be subcontracted to a licensed trade;

comfort working with reports and dashboards (e.g., Power BI) a plus - Willingness to learn – genuine interest in mastering new subject matter (licensing regimes, lien law, insurance and bonding, company systems) and in taking on new responsibilities as the role grows - Problem-solving mindset – ability to take an unfamiliar question, figure out what is being asked, research it, work through roadblocks, and bring back a practical answer or recommendation - Ability to work independently and manage a full, varied workload with competing deadlines - Demonstrated initiative to start and complete projects with minimal oversight - Ability to communicate effectively across all levels of the organization, including field and installation personnel - Currently a Notary Public in the State of Ohio or willingness to immediately become an Ohio Notary Education & Experience: - Bachelor’s degree and/or a paralegal certificate from an accredited program, or equivalent construction industry experience in a licensing, compliance, contracts, or project administration role - At least 1-3 years of experience as a paralegal, legal assistant, or construction compliance/licensing coordinator;

Now we need to decide sections. We could have:

  About the role

  ...

  (summary from first paragraph). The first paragraph: "Position Description As a Paralegal, you will support the legal department and the business as a whole for Trew and its affiliated companies, including Intelligrated Systems, LLC. This is a cross-functional role, not one confined to purely legal work: much of your day will be spent working directly with Sales, Proposals, Sourcing, Installation, Field Service, Project Management, Billing, and Accounts Payable to get their questions answered and their projects moving. It is a construction-compliance-focused paralegal role: you will own the licensing, lien waiver, bond, and customer-prequalification work that allows our teams to bid, install, and service material handling systems at customer sites across the United States. The ideal candidate comes from a construction background (general or specialty contractor, construction law practice, surety or insurance agency, or similar) and understands how contractor licensing, lien rights, bonding, and certificates of insurance work in practice; familiarity with commercial insurance concepts is a major plus. Success in this role depends less on already knowing every answer than on a willingness to learn. The questions that come to the legal department are rarely the same twice – a new state, a new customer requirement, a new scope of work – and the person in this seat needs to be curious, dig into unfamiliar rules and systems, and drive problems to resolution rather than wait to be told what to do. This is a full-time role with a steady, varied workload; it is a good fit for someone who wants to build real expertise, take ownership of their areas, and be a visible resource to teammates across the company." We can put that as About the role. Then Responsibilities: list all duties. Then Required Skills/Abilities: list. Then Education & Experience: list. Then Work Environment: maybe combine with Schedule? But we have separate Schedule section for full-time/remote/hybrid. Work Environment could be desk-based, sitting, computer use. Physical Requirements separate. Schedule: full-time, remote/hybrid 3 days in office. We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler text. All have content. Now we must output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. We'll produce something
