We need to output only HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "How Jobgether Works", "Why Apply Through Jobgether?" etc. Also remove "Benefits" content that is generic? The posting includes a Benefits paragraph: "Executive-level opportunity to build and lead a new ETF distribution and statutory underwriting operation. Fully remote position within the United States. Direct ownership of the business strategy, operating model, regulatory launch, and financial performance. Opportunity to shape distribution, marketing compliance, and client service capabilities from the ground up. High-level collaboration with executive leadership, fund boards, counsel, service providers, and cross-functional teams. Opportunity to build and lead a growing team and establish scalable processes and governance. Ability to influence future expansion into external distribution and compliance services. Compensation and benefits appropriate to the executive-level scope of the position." We need to include Benefits section only if posting has real specific content. This is fairly generic but still specific: remote, executive-level opportunity, etc. It's not just placeholder like "competitive salary". It's okay. Pay and Schedule: The posting does not mention pay or schedule specifics. So we should NOT create Pay or Schedule sections because they are not stated. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits we have content, so include Benefits. Pay and Schedule: omit. We also need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Possibly also "Qualifications" and "Skills" may overlap with Requirements. The posting includes a "Requirements" section with bullet-like sentences. Also there is "Preferred experience..." etc. Could treat those as Requirements. There's no separate "Qualifications" or "Skills" explicitly, but we could extract skills from requirements. However instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we should not create sections that are empty. We have content for About the role (first paragraph). Responsibilities (the "Accountabilities" bullet list). Requirements (the list after "Requirements"). Benefits (the paragraph). We could also have "Qualifications" maybe same as Requirements but we already have Requirements; we could skip Qualifications and Skills if no distinct content. However the posting includes "Required securities licenses..." etc which could be considered Qualifications. But we already have Requirements covering that. To avoid thin sections, we can combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But the instruction says use headings for those specific names if content exists. We have content for Requirements; we can make a Requirements section. For Qualifications, we could maybe not include because it's overlapping. Similarly Skills: we could extract skills like "Strong knowledge of broker-dealer controls, net capital requirements, compliance governance, and books and records obligations." etc. That is in Requirements. Might be better to have a Skills section separate? But we risk duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we should combine similar content into one section, maybe "Requirements" covering all. Then we can omit Qualifications and Skills. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. Now we need to format. About the role: prose paragraph(s). Use

    . Responsibilities: list of duties from "Accountabilities". Each bullet is a sentence separated by periods? The text: "Lead the regulatory launch of the newly established broker-dealer, including the FINRA New Membership Application, operational readiness, financial preparation, legal requirements, and launch execution.Establish the governance, controls, reporting, books and records, insurance coverage, and decision-making structures required for a regulated financial-services entity.Serve as, or directly oversee, registered principal leadership and maintain a high standard of regulatory preparedness as the organization grows.Lead the phased transition of statutory ETF distribution from an incumbent external provider, managing contractual requirements, fund board approvals, client communications, authorized participant relationships, and implementation sequencing.Coordinate closely with fund boards, outside counsel, Client Success, Fund Operations, and other stakeholders to maintain visibility into responsibilities, timelines, risks, and decisions.Establish and maintain Authorized Participant agreements and related infrastructure supporting statutory distribution responsibilities, including approval of daily AP activity.Lead the transition and ongoing operation of FINRA Rule 2210 marketing compliance review, including review teams, compliance technology, quality standards, and service-level expectations.Analyze submission volume, utilization, quality, and service data to anticipate capacity requirements and prevent operational or regulatory issues.Own pricing strategy and the business P&L, including revenue, cost management, net capital compliance, forecasting, and financial reporting to executive leadership and the CFO.Ensure distribution and marketing compliance services deliver sustainable economics while maintaining strong controls, service quality, and client relationships.Evaluate opportunities to expand statutory distribution, marketing compliance, and related services to external ETF issuers based on market demand, operational readiness, risk, and financial considerations.Build and execute the staffing strategy, including recruiting and developing registered leadership and other capabilities required for growth.Manage key outsourced partners and relationships, including compliance and financial/operations leadership, with clear expectations, reporting structures, and succession planning.Collaborate across legal, compliance, finance, fund operations, technology, relationship management, and executive leadership to resolve issues efficiently and maintain strong client and business outcomes." We need to split into list items. Each sentence ends with a period. We'll create

  • for each. Requirements: list after "Requirements". The text: "15+ years of experience in broker-dealer operations, fund distribution, asset management, or a closely related financial-services discipline, including direct experience with FINRA-registered entities.Direct experience with statutory underwriting or distribution functions for registered investment companies, particularly ETFs or mutual funds, or leadership experience within a comparable distribution or compliance service provider.Demonstrated experience managing FINRA membership applications or examinations.Required securities licenses, including either SIE + Series 7 + Series 24 + Series 63 or SIE + Series 6 + Series 26 + Series 63.Demonstrated success launching, building, or scaling a regulated financial-services entity or function, with relevant supervisory and principal registrations held or readily obtainable.Proven ability to lead complex, multi-stakeholder transitions involving contractual notice periods, governance or fund board approvals, client communications, and operational implementation.Experience owning a business-unit P&L and making pricing, investment, staffing, and vendor decisions based on business performance.Strong knowledge of broker-dealer controls, net capital requirements, compliance governance, and books and records obligations.Ability to communicate complex regulatory, financial, and operational matters clearly to executives, fund boards, clients, counsel, and cross-functional stakeholders.Strong commercial judgment, regulatory discipline, organizational skills, and ability to operate hands-on within a lean, evolving environment.Preferred experience with ETF platforms, ETF servicing providers, fund administrators, or similar financial-services organizations.Experience managing compliance functions and relationships with Chief Compliance Officers, Financial and Operations Principals, and compliance technology providers is a plus.Experience bringing previously outsourced regulated services or operating functions in-house is preferred.Additional supervisory or principal securities licenses, such as Series 27 or Series 28, are advantageous." We need to split into list items. Some sentences are long; we can split by period. Also note "Preferred experience..." etc are separate items. Benefits: paragraph(s). We'll put as

    maybe multiple sentences. Now we need to strip boilerplate: The initial sentence "This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps." That's maybe meta but not boilerplate; it's about the posting. Should we keep? It's substantive? It's about the partner managing applications. Might be considered application instruction? It's not exactly instruction to apply, but it's about process. The instruction says remove application instructions. This sentence is about partner managing applications; could be considered application instruction. Safer to remove it. Also remove "Our partner is looking for a President and Head of Distribution Services based in United States." That's basically job title and location; we should not repeat job title as heading but we can keep location? The instruction: do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. So we could include location in a short p maybe under About the role? But we already have About the role paragraph; we could incorporate location there. However the instruction says "fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it." So we could add a short p about location. But we already have About the role; we could keep location inside that paragraph. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; location is substantive. So we should keep it somewhere. Perhaps we add a short p after About the role: "

    Location: United States (fully remote).

    " But we already have remote in Benefits. Might be redundant. However location is US based; remote is within US. We'll keep location in About the role. Let's craft About the role: combine the descriptive sentences: "This executive role will lead the launch and growth of a newly established ETF distribution and statutory underwriting business. You will own the organization from regulatory approval through operational launch and long-term scale, combining regulatory leadership with commercial and financial accountability. The position will oversee the transition of statutory distribution and marketing compliance activities from an external provider while building the operating model, governance framework, and team. You will work closely with executive leadership, fund boards, counsel, service providers, and cross-functional teams to establish a controlled, client-focused operation. The role requires a hands-on leader who can navigate complex regulatory environments while turning strategic plans into disciplined execution. You will also own the entity’s P&L and help determine future opportunities to expand distribution and compliance services." We can also add location: "Based in the United States (fully remote)." We'll incorporate. Now produce HTML:
