We need to output only HTML fragment, with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, navigation, cookie, application instructions, duplicated lines.
We need to parse the posting.
Let's extract sections:
Position Summary: description of role. Could be "About the role" or maybe "Position Summary". We'll treat as About the role.
Responsibilities: many bullet-like sentences.
Requirements: maybe "Bachelor’s in Accounting.5-7 years of accounting experience .Sarbanes–Oxley experience preferred.Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Power Point, and Word).Certification or Advanced Degree Preferred."
Qualifications: maybe overlapping with requirements. But we can combine? The instruction: Use headings for sections if posting has real specific content. We can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections actually have content.
From posting:
- Position Summary (About the role)
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: maybe "Bachelor’s in Accounting.5-7 years of accounting experience .Sarbanes–Oxley experience preferred.Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Power Point, and Word).Certification or Advanced Degree Preferred."
- Qualifications: maybe not separate; could be same as requirements. But we could treat "Qualifications" as education/experience etc. However we must not create thin sections. If we have both Requirements and Qualifications with similar content, maybe we combine into one? But we need to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. If we split, we need to ensure each has distinct content. The posting doesn't explicitly label "Qualifications" separate; it's just a list of requirements. So we could have only Requirements (or Qualifications) but not both. Which heading is more appropriate? The list includes education, experience, preferred experience, proficiency, certification. That's typical "Requirements". So we will use

.
- Skills: maybe "Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Power Point, and Word)" is a skill, but it's already in requirements. Could also include "Sarbanes–Oxley experience". Might be considered skill. But we can keep Skills separate if we have distinct skill items not covered elsewhere. However to avoid thin sections, maybe we incorporate skills into Requirements. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we likely will not create a separate Skills section unless there is explicit skill list beyond requirements. The posting does not have a separate skills list; it's embedded. So we skip Skills.
- Benefits: The posting includes a "Benefits Pay, Benefits, Work Schedule" section with details: medical, prescription drugs, dental, vision, voluntary optional life, accident insurance, hospital indemnity insurance and critical illness insurance with competitive premium cost. 401(k) Plan with company matching contributions at 100% of the first 5% of pay. Company provided defined-contribution retirement plan with annual contribution equal to 3% of pay. Career development and tuition reimbursement. Other benefits including paid parental leave, short and long-term disability programs, adoption assistance, a Care.com membership and financial planning assistance are provided at no cost to you. Supplemental benefit program including identity protection, legal protection, and pet wellness are available at competitive rates. Paid Time Off and Company-Paid Holidays.
Thus we have Benefits content. Also there is "Pay, Benefits, Work Schedule" heading but we need separate Pay and Schedule sections only if posting actually states them. The posting does not give specific pay amount or schedule details (like hours, shift). It mentions "Work Schedule" in the heading but no details. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections because they lack specific content (just heading). So we will only include Benefits.
Thus sections: About the role (Position Summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits.
We need to format as HTML fragment: use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to convert the responsibilities paragraph into list items? The responsibilities are a series of sentences separated by periods. We should turn each duty into a
- . Must not lose any detail. Similarly for requirements: list items.
For benefits: also list items.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
Let's extract the responsibilities text exactly:
From posting:
"Assist Division Management in making financial based decisions. Provides local management with financial and statistical information to enable them to better control operations. Walk the floorProvide information to Division, Group and Corporate on a monthly basis and as requested. Prepare or assist in the preparation of financial statements, reviews, budgets, forecasts, and analysis.Participate, coordinate and review month end and year end closings and governmental reports and forms submittal.Initiate all reports as required by divisional and corporate accounting on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual basis.Maintains Balance Sheet reconciliations.Work with the IT Department to provide information for management decisions throughout the division.Ensure compliance with corporate objectives and systems for accounting, payables, receivables, payroll and inventory operations as applicable.Auditing physical inventoriesMaintaining accurate raw material and finished goods stockroom inventories as well as accurate work in process inventory.Maintaining the asset inventory records.Establish all inventory control procedures.Responsible for accounting distribution of obsolete and salvageable material.Responsible for all plant asset inventory controls."
We need to split into sensible list items. Some sentences are concatenated without spaces (e.g., "Walk the floorProvide information"). We need to separate them appropriately. We should preserve the meaning but not invent. We can split at periods and also where there is missing space. We'll need to insert a space before capital letter after a lowercase? Eg "Walk the floorProvide information" -> "Walk the floor. Provide information". We'll treat as two items: "Walk the floor" and "Provide information to Division, Group and Corporate on a monthly basis and as requested." Actually the original: "Walk the floorProvide information to Division, Group and Corporate on a monthly basis and as requested." So after splitting we get "Walk the floor" and "Provide information to Division, Group and Corporate on a monthly basis and as requested."
Similarly "Prepare or assist in the preparation of financial statements, reviews, budgets, forecasts, and analysis.Participate, coordinate and review month end and year end closings and governmental reports and forms submittal." => two items.
"Initiate all reports as required by divisional and corporate accounting on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual basis.Maintains Balance Sheet reconciliations." => two items.
"Work with the IT Department to provide information for management decisions throughout the division.Ensure compliance with corporate objectives and systems for accounting, payables, receivables, payroll and inventory operations as applicable." => two items.
"Auditing physical inventoriesMaintaining accurate raw material and finished goods stockroom inventories as well as accurate work in process inventory." => two items.
"Maintaining the asset inventory records.Establish all inventory control procedures." => two items.
"Responsible for accounting distribution of obsolete and salvageable material.Responsible for all plant asset inventory controls." => two items.
We'll create list items accordingly.
Now Requirements:
"Bachelor’s in Accounting.5-7 years of accounting experience .Sarbanes–Oxley experience preferred.Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Power Point, and Word).Certification or Advanced Degree Preferred."
We need to split: "Bachelor’s in Accounting", "5-7 years of accounting experience", "Sarbanes–Oxley experience preferred", "Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Power Point, and Word)", "Certification or Advanced Degree Preferred". Note there is a missing space after "Accounting." and after "experience .". We'll handle.
Now Benefits:
We need to extract the benefits paragraph:
"Benefits Pay, Benefits, Work Schedule Comprehensive coverage for medical, prescription drugs, dental, vision, voluntary optional life, accident insurance, hospital indemnity insurance and critical illness insurance with competitive premium cost.401(k) Plan with company matching contributions at 100% of the first 5% of pay.Company provided defined-contribution retirement plan with annual contribution equal to 3% of pay.Career development and tuition reimbursement.Other benefits including paid parental leave, short and long-term disability programs, adoption assistance, a Care.com membership and financial planning assistance are provided at no cost to you.Supplemental benefit program including identity protection, legal protection, and pet wellness are available at competitive rates.

We need to split into list items. There's missing spaces after periods. We'll split accordingly.
Items:
- Comprehensive coverage for medical, prescription drugs, dental, vision, voluntary optional life, accident insurance, hospital indemnity insurance and critical illness insurance with competitive premium cost.

- Company provided defined-contribution retirement plan with annual contribution equal to 3% of pay.

- Supplemental benefit program including identity protection, legal protection, and pet wellness are available at competitive rates.
- Paid Time Off and Company-Paid Holidays
Note: The heading "Benefits Pay, Benefits, Work Schedule" appears but we ignore as not specific.
Now About the role (Position Summary) text:
"Position Summary The Plant Accountant supports division management by providing accurate financial information, accounting oversight, and asset control for the plant. The position is responsible for managing key accounting functions, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, cost accounting, fixed assets, payroll, planning, budges, forecasts, and monthly reporting. The role helps ensure strong financial controls, accurate reporting, compliance with corporate and divisional policies, and effective decision-making to support the best return on investment. This position reports directly to the Division Controller and does not currently have direct reports, though supervisory responsibilities may be assigned at the division's discretion. The role works closely with plant departments and Division Accounting Department to meet accounting objectives and maintain compliance."
We need to preserve all substantive info. We'll put this as a

Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no or . Use
headings, - for lists,

We must not include any extra text.
