We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements, Benefits & Perks, maybe Compensation Overview? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content. We have compensation overview with base salary, discretionary bonus, target total, ESOP, 401(k) match. That's pay info, so we should include a Pay section. Also schedule? Not explicit schedule beyond office + field travel, extended hours maybe. Could include Schedule? The posting says "Full-Time Lakewood, CO (Office + Field Travel)" and "During peak project cycles, extended hours may be required". That's schedule info. Could include Schedule section. But we need to avoid filler like "not specified". We have specifics: office-based leadership role, regular travel to active projects across Rocky Mountain region, extended hours may be required. That's enough for Schedule. We also have Benefits & Perks section already. We need to not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities we have bullet list of duties; we should put each duty as
  • . For Requirements we have Must-Haves / Required list and Nice-to-Haves / Preferred list. Probably combine as list? Could separate but still list. Benefits: list. Pay: maybe list of compensation components. Schedule: maybe prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract details: Company description: Edge Construction Specialties employee-owned since 1996, 100% ESOP, etc. Could be included maybe in About the role? Actually there is "About Edge Construction Specialties" paragraph. Could be part of About the role? But we have separate "About The Role". The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should include About the role (maybe includes description of role). The "About Edge Construction Specialties" is company overview, not role. Could be omitted? It's substantive but not under those headings. However we could include it under About the role? Might be okay to include as paragraph under About the role heading. But the instruction says "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". It doesn't forbid adding other headings not listed, but they gave examples. Safer to stick to those headings. We could incorporate company overview into About the role paragraph. Let's craft:

    About the role

    The Project Director leads a dedicated portfolio of complex commercial millwork and finish carpentry projects representing approximately half of Edge's annual budgeted revenue, together with the team responsible for delivering that work. Reporting to the President & CEO, this role owns portfolio-level strategy, financial performance, client relationships, staffing, risk management, and execution across the full project lifecycle. Alongside a second Project Director, you'll co-lead Project Management as one department – sharing standards, staffing flexibility, and department-wide priorities while holding clear, final accountability for your own portfolio. This is a senior leadership role for an experienced construction professional who thrives on complexity, owns outcomes, and wants a real equity stake in the company they help grow.

    Then Responsibilities:

    Responsibilities

    • Portfolio & Financial Leadership: Own the overall performance of a dedicated project portfolio representing roughly half of Edge's annual budgeted revenue; set portfolio-level strategy, priorities, staffing, workload balance, and escalation paths; own portfolio-level budgeting, cost projections, forecasting, and WIP reporting, with accountability for timely, reliable financials; review contracts, scope changes, change orders, and significant financial commitments; approve within the company's authority matrix and elevate items beyond it to the President & CEO; monitor schedules, milestones, financial performance, and closeout; intervene early when performance trends require it; ensure potential changes are identified promptly, notices are issued per contract requirements, and change-order exposure is actively managed.
    • Department Co-Leadership: Partner with the other Project Director to lead Project Management as one department, not two competing portfolios; establish shared standards for project setup, documentation, financial controls, and closeout across both portfolios; flex staffing across portfolios to reduce unnecessary overtime and uneven workloads; align on hiring, onboarding, performance expectations, and career development company-wide; present a single, consistent Project Management voice to Purchasing, Engineering, Field Supervision, and Accounting.
    • Cross-Functional Collaboration & Safety: Partner with Purchasing, Engineering, and Field Supervision to keep procurement, engineering, and field delivery aligned with portfolio needs; coordinate labor and capacity planning with Field Operations to support project schedules and commitments; reinforce Edge's safety expectations and ensure project teams factor safety, access, logistics, and means-and-methods into planning; drive collaborative, can-do problem-solving across functions.
    • Team Leadership & Development: Build, lead, and mentor a multi-level team of Senior Project Managers, Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, and Project Engineers; coach through clear direction, regular feedback, and meaningful growth opportunities; support recruiting, onboarding, performance management, and succession planning; contribute to company-wide process improvements and best practices.
    Requirements: We have Must-Haves / Required list and Nice-to-Haves / Preferred list. Could combine into one list with maybe subheadings? But we cannot add extra headings beyond allowed? Could still use

    to separate. Probably better to have two

      with preceding

      indicating required and preferred. But we must not invent headings. We can use

      for prose. So:

      Requirements

      Must‑haves / Required

      • 10+ years of progressively responsible project‑management experience in architectural millwork, commercial finish carpentry, specialty contracting, or commercial construction, including experience managing other project managers

      • Proven ability to manage a portfolio of concurrent, complex commercial projects and lead a multi‑level project‑management team
      • Strong financial acumen – budgeting, forecasting, cost‑to‑complete projections, change management, and WIP management at a portfolio level
      • Ability to read and interpret architectural drawings, shop drawings, scopes of work, and contracts
      • Strong communication, negotiation, client‑management, and conflict‑resolution skills
      • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and modern project‑management, construction‑management, or ERP systems

      Nice‑to‑haves / Preferred

      • Deep experience in architectural millwork, casework, commercial finish carpentry, or another technically complex specialty subcontracting environment
      • Experience leading project teams across a regional footprint, coordinating engineering, purchasing/procurement, production, and field operations
      • Established relationships with general contractors, owners, or architects in the Rocky Mountain region
      • Experience improving project‑management standards, systems, reporting, and team‑development practices across a department
      Benefits & Perks:

We should not include "commensurate with experience" as filler? It's actually substantive? It's a phrase but it's part of the description. It's okay. We'll make a
        maybe.

        Pay

        • Base Salary: $150,000 – $190,000 (commensurate with experience)
        • Discretionary Bonus: 15–20% of base
        • Target Total Compensation: Base + Bonus + ESOP + 401(k) match (approximately $150,000 – $190,000 + bonus + benefits)
        But we need to avoid filler like "not specified". This is fine. Schedule: We have: Full-Time Lakewood, CO (Office + Field Travel). During peak project cycles, extended hours may be required – we work hard when projects demand it and are committed to balance in between. We'll make a

        .

        Schedule

        Full‑time position based in Lakewood, CO with regular office work and field travel to active projects across the Rocky Mountain region (Wyoming, Montana, mountain communities in Utah and Colorado). During peak project cycles extended hours may be required, with a commitment to work‑life balance.

        We should also include maybe location? Already in schedule. We must not repeat job title. Not include any boilerplate. Now output only HTML fragment. Check for any repeated content: We have included all substantive info. Let's ensure we didn't miss any details: The description also mentions "Employee-Owned Since 1996 100% EMPLOYEE-OWNED (ESOP) At Edge, you're not just an employee – you're an owner. As a 100% ESOP company, you receive annual stock grants that grow in value alongside the business. The longer you stay, the more you build. Our employee-owners have seen consistent growth in their ownership accounts, creating real long-term wealth – not just a paycheck." This is covered in Benefits & Perks (ESOP Ownership) and maybe also in About the role? Could add a sentence in About the role about ESOP. But we already have ESOP in Benefits. It's okay. Also "Compensation Overview Base Salary: $150,000 – $190,000, commensurate with experienceDiscretionary Bonus: 15 – 20%Target Total: $150,000 – $190,000 + Bonus + ESOP + 401(K) Match". We captured. Also "About Edge Construction Specialties Since 1996, Edge Construction Specialties has delivered high-quality commercial finish carpentry across the Rocky Mountain region. Our expertise spans architectural woodwork, casework, countertops, upholstery, ornamental metals, decorative glass, specialties, and doors, frames, and hardware. We're building more than projects – we're building careers. Our success is driven by an uncompromising commitment to integrity and a can-do culture: anticipating challenges, solving problems, and supporting one another to deliver exceptional results. At Edge, relationships aren't just important – they are our business." This is company overview; we might incorporate into About the role paragraph. Let's add a sentence after the role description: "Edge Construction Specialties, employee‑owned since 1996, delivers
