. - Responsibilities: we have "What Your Impact Will Be" list: Majority (>80%) Qualifying M&A Prospects - Understand and use our investment criteria for rigorous screening of prospects; Big Data - Manage, monitor and maintain the data quality of our watch-list of M&A prospects in our CRM with reports and dashboards; Research - Perform primary research on owner-operated businesses, private equity portfolio companies, as well as potential carve outs of multinational corporations; Research - market-sizing, industry trends, and competitor analysis; Research - Software M&A advisors, brokers, and investment banks; Data sources - Identify & analyze relevant 3rd party data sources such as industry tradeshows and conferences for M&A prospects; Analysis-Prepare and report on various statistics and KPIs related to our M&A pipeline; Minority (Ad Hoc Analysis & Special Projects with our senior M&A and Corporate Development leaders to support capital deployment). So we can put these as

• items. - Requirements: maybe the "What We Are Looking For" includes experience, degree, etc. Could be considered Requirements. We'll put experience and maybe eligibility (passport, travel) but those already in About the role. We'll separate: Requirements: 1-3+ years of experience in finance, accounting, software, or data analysis; Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Accounting, or Economics (BBA/BCom etc.) preferred; Self-motivated individual with ability to perform independently in a fast-paced environment; Excellent attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines; Excellent organizational skills, written and verbal communication skills, and analytical ability; Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint; Leverages AI for research and analysis; High degree of professionalism and integrity; Ability to work remotely in the U.S. or Canada. That's many items; we can list as
  . - Qualifications: maybe education? But we already included degree in Requirements. Could separate Qualifications as degree preferred. But to avoid duplication, maybe we put Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Accounting, or Economics preferred. However we already have that in Requirements. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can decide to include only those with content. We could put Requirements (experience, skills, etc.) and Qualifications (education). But we risk duplication. Perhaps we put Requirements: experience and eligibility; Qualifications: education; Skills: technical/soft skills (MS Office, AI, communication, etc.). Benefits: vacation, benefits, stock ownership, lifestyle rewards, remote work. Pay: salary range. Schedule: maybe travel %? Not exactly schedule; but we have travel required ~10% and remote work. Could treat schedule as remote work and travel expectation. The posting does not specify work hours, but we have remote role and travel. Could include Schedule: Remote work with approximately 10% travel required. That's specific. Thus we can create sections: - About the role (summary) - Responsibilities (impact list) - Requirements (experience, eligibility, passport, EST preference) - Qualifications (education preferred) - Skills (MS Office, AI, communication, analytical, organizational, professionalism) - Benefits (vacation, personal days, medical/dental/vision, stock ownership, RRSP/401k matching, lifestyle rewards, remote work) - Pay (salary 70K-77K) - Schedule (remote work, ~10% travel, passport eligibility, EST preference maybe but that's more requirement; but schedule could be remote + travel) We must not invent filler. Ensure each section has real content. Let's extract precise statements. About the role: we can combine the first paragraph plus remote role, travel, passport, EST preference. Responsibilities: list each bullet. Requirements: "1-3+ years of experience in finance, accounting, software, or data analysis" plus "Candidates must hold a current, valid passport and be legally eligible to travel between USA and Canada." plus "Preference will be given to candidates who can work in EST timezone." Also maybe "Self-motivated individual with an ability to perform independently in a fast-paced environment" is more skill but could be requirement. But we already have skills section. Let's keep Requirements as experience and eligibility/preference. Qualifications: "Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Accounting, or Economics (BBA/ BCom etc.) preferred" Skills: "Excellent attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines", "Excellent organizational skills, written and verbal communication skills, and analytical ability", "Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint", "Leverages AI for research and analysis", "High degree of professionalism and integrity", "Ability to work remotely in the U.S. or Canada" (though remote work also in benefits). Could also include "Self-motivated individual with an ability to perform independently in a fast-paced environment". We'll include. Benefits: "3 weeks’ vacation and 5 personal days", "Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits starting from your first day of employment", "Employee stock ownership and RRSP/401k matching programs", "Lifestyle rewards", "Remote work and more!" Pay: "Salary 70K - 77K" Schedule: maybe "Remote role welcomes candidates anywhere in Canada and the US. Travel is required as needed, approximately 10%." Also "Preference will be given to candidates who can work in EST timezone." But that's more requirement. For schedule we can state: Remote work with approximately 10% travel required; candidates anywhere in Canada and US; EST timezone preference. We must not repeat content across sections unnecessarily but it's okay if some overlap? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all info somewhere. Overlap may cause duplication but that's okay as long as we don't omit. However we should try to avoid duplication but not required. We'll try to allocate each piece to a section. Let's map: - Passion for research, analysis, investments, data, software, love to continuously learn -> About the role. - Want to grow career long term -> About the role. - Vital component of investment strategy -> About the role. - Remote role anywhere Canada/US -> About the role (or Schedule). We'll put in About the role. - Travel required ~10% -> About the role (or Schedule). We'll put in About the role. - Passport eligibility -> About the role. - Preference for EST timezone -> About the role. - Salary -> Pay. - AI & Innovation Mindset: mention using AI tools -> could be Skills (leverages AI) or Responsibilities? We'll put in Skills. - What Your Impact Will Be -> Responsibilities. - What We Are Looking For -> split into Requirements (experience), Qualifications (education), Skills (others). - What We Can Offer -> Benefits. - About Harris -> maybe we could add a section "About the Company" but not in list; we could omit as not required headings. The instruction says use headings for those specific sections; we can omit About Harris if not matching any of those headings. But we might want to include as a paragraph under About the role? Not appropriate. Could we add a section "About Harris" as a

  About Harris

  ? Not in allowed headings list but maybe allowed? The instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exclusive; but likely they expect only those headings. Safer to stick to those. So we omit About Harris. Now we need to ensure we don't miss any substantive info: The AI & Innovation Mindset paragraph: "We are committed to leveraging emerging technologies to improve how we work, serve our customers, and drive business outcomes. The successful candidate will demonstrate curiosity and a willingness to actively adopt and leverage AI tools to improve workflows, solve problems, and increase efficiency. Candidates should be comfortable using AI enabled technologies, including copilots, chat based AI assistants, and automation tools, as part of their everyday work while maintaining appropriate judgment, security, and compliance standards." This is covered by Skills (leverages AI for research and analysis) but also includes curiosity, willingness to adopt AI tools, comfort using AI enabled technologies, judgment, security, compliance. We should include those in Skills. Also "What Your Impact Will Be" includes "Minority ( Ad Hoc Analysis & Special Projects with our senior M&A and Corporate Development leaders to support capital deployment". We'll include as a bullet. Now let's craft HTML. We'll open with
