Residential House Manager - Harford County
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. 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. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to extract substantive content: location, pay, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits.
We need sections: maybe "About the role" (intro), "Responsibilities", "Requirements" or "Qualifications", "Benefits", "Pay". Possibly "Schedule" not given.
We must not create sections with placeholder text. So only include sections where we have real content.
We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like location, pay, responsibilities list, qualifications list, benefits list.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, diversity statement? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The diversity encouragement statement at end is EEO-like; we should remove it. Also the hashtag #HJA26 maybe metadata; drop.
We need to keep the mission description? That's part of "About the role" maybe.
We need to format using
headings,
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. The job title is Program Manager; we shouldn't add heading for that.
We need to include location and pay maybe in a short
under About the role or separate? Could be a short paragraph.
We need to preserve all substantive info: The posting includes many responsibilities bullet-like sentences. We should turn them into list items under Responsibilities.
Qualifications: list of ideal candidate bullet points.
Benefits: list.
Pay: $48,000 annually.
Location: Bel Air, Harford County.
We also have some other details: "Assist and instruct individuals in all aspects of their IP", "administer medication when required", etc. Those are responsibilities.
We need to ensure we don't duplicate content.
Let's parse the posting:
Intro paragraph: "At Aspire Living & Learning, we don't just talk about making an impact, we live it. For more than 40 years, we've supported neurodiverse children and adults across New England and Maryland as they discover their passions, unlock their potential, and live more independently in their communities.

We empower people to live lives shaped by their own interests, choices, and strengths. Join our collaborative, mission-driven team and bring your skills to work that makes a real difference every day."
Then: "Aspire Living & Learning is currently seeking a motivated and dedicated Program Manager to oversee the day-to-day operations for adults with developmental disabilities, ensuring that all supported individuals are receiving appropriate clinical and medical services in Harford County. The Program Manager will mentor, develop and supervise shift supervisors and direct care staff, ensure adherence to all DDS, funding agency, and state regulations, maintains and monitor staffing schedule, assist with writing clinical assessments and overseeing ISP assessments, and assume on-call responsibilities as required.

Then: "Location: Bel Air, Harford County Pay: $48,000 annually"
Then: "Key Responsibilities: The PM is responsible for programmatic and operational management of services that will enable individuals to reach their fullest potential. This person holds a leadership role, building effective teams through developmental supervision and championing internal and external partnerships. Below outlines key aspects of the roles and responsibilities this position holds:"
Then subheadings: Relationships and Communication: bullet-like sentences.

Then: "If you want to join us in making a difference and positively impact the lives of others while charting your own path of development, then we at the Aspire team would love to hear from you."
Then diversity statement and hashtag.
We need to remove boilerplate: diversity statement, maybe the "If you want to join us..." is more like a call to action; could be considered application instruction? It's not exactly instruction to apply but encouraging. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's not a legal EEO. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "If you want to join us..." is more like a closing encouragement; could be considered application instruction? It's not exactly instruction to apply but encouraging to apply. Safer to remove it as it's not substantive content about the job. We'll keep only substantive info: mission, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, location, pay.
We need to avoid duplication: The intro paragraph includes mission; we can keep that as About the role.
We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler. So we will have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list), Qualifications (list), Benefits (list), Pay (maybe a short p). Possibly also Location? Could be included in About the role or a separate short p. Since location is specific, we could include it in About the role paragraph.
We must not create Schedule section because not given.
We must not create Requirements section if we have Qualifications; but we could combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose Qualifications for the ideal candidate list. Could also have Requirements for education/experience etc. But we have both education and experience etc. We'll put them under Qualifications.
We need to preserve all substantive info: The responsibilities list includes many items; we need to capture them as list items.
We need to avoid losing any detail: For each bullet under Relationships and Communication etc., we need to include them.

The Program Manager will also assist and instruct individuals in all aspects of their IP, administer medication when required, provide in-house and agency-contracted training and consultation services, adhere to budgetary guidelines, assist and instruct residents with daily living skills, behavioral and habilitative plans, medical, psychiatric and socio-emotional needs, and work with the People Team to plan and implement corrective action when necessary."
We should include those as part of responsibilities as well. Could merge.
We need to ensure we don't duplicate similar items. But we can include all.
Now qualifications:
