ROW/Land Agent - Portland, Oregon

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About Us? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes "About Us" (company description). That could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is company overview, not role. But we could map to "About the role"? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should use those headings if content matches. The posting includes "Overview" which describes the role. That could be "About the role". Then "Responsibilities" section present. Then "Qualifications" present. There's also "Department/Location Specific Requirements and Comments" which could be considered Requirements? Might be extra. There's also "Benefits" present with details. There's "Compensation" with salary range. That's Pay. There's no explicit Schedule. There's no explicit Skills separate; qualifications include skills. We could combine Skills into Qualifications or maybe separate if content. But we should not create thin sections. So we can have sections: About the role (Overview), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine Requirements and Qualifications), Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Skills? But Qualifications already includes skills. We'll avoid duplicate. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, disclaimers, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal, etc. Must remove duplicated lines. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content. About Us: description of TRC, WSP, etc. That's company overview, not role. But we could put under About the role? Might be misaligned. However instruction: "About the role" heading for section headings. The posting has "Overview" describing the role. So we should use that as About the role. The "About Us" paragraph is company description; maybe we could include it as part of About the role? It's not about the role but about the company. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop it. So we need to include it somewhere. Could we make a section "About the company"? Not in allowed headings list. But we could still use

for any heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive? It says use

for section headings (e.g. ...). Likely they expect only those headings. But we need to include company info; maybe we can incorporate it into About the role section as a preamble. That would preserve it. Thus About the role section will contain both company overview and role overview. Now Responsibilities: list items. We need to convert each responsibility sentence into

. The responsibilities paragraph is a long sentence with many items separated by periods. We need to split into list items. Let's extract each duty: - Secure permission to enter properties from landowners and tenants. - While maintaining the ROW price policy, negotiate for ROW options, easements, fee interest, and curative documents as directed by the ROW Supervisor or as required by project documents and the acquisition policy. - Assist in the development of a construction line from the conditions and/or restrictions placed on the ROW by the landowner and/or tenant. - Maintain a detailed diary containing the facts of each contact for every property owner and tenant on a project and prepare a detailed weekly activity report. - Maintain a detailed log of all payments. - Negotiate Damage Settlements as required. - Support all construction activities as required. - Document all ROW activities as required. - Adhere to project Safety Plan. - Mediate ROW encroachments as required. That seems correct. Now Qualifications: The posting has "Qualifications" heading then a block of text with many requirements. We need to extract list items. Let's parse: "3 years of experience as a ROW agent or related ROW position. Must have experience negotiating easements. Must have experience providing construction support and damage settlement. Must have experience researching land ownership. Proficient in Microsoft Office products, including spreadsheet and word processing. Must be detail oriented and have excellent analytical and quantitative skills. Requires specialized knowledge in the methods and techniques for performing Land Services activities. Must possess competent knowledge and skills in land description and terminology, surface and subsurface rights, ROW document analysis, and have excellent negotiation skills. Must be able to work alone, make decisions and use judgment while performing related activities. Creativity, foresight, and mature judgment to identify and resolve business, technical and administrative related problems with ROW services. Must have strong verbal and written communication skills and be able to communicate clearly and concisely to prepare reports, specifications, applications, and correspondence. Able to interact with all levels of management and to work effectively with a wide range of constituencies in a diverse community. Commitment to customer satisfaction and the ability to work in team-oriented environment The employee must be able to lift and/or move up to 35 pounds. Employee is expected to use good judgment when lifting or moving office supplies and/or furniture and to seek assistance or wear back support appliances when appropriate.

While performing the duties of this job, the employee is required to sit, use hands and fingers, to handle, or feel objects, tools, controls. Reach with hands and arms, hear, and talk. The employee is required to stand, walk, stoop, kneel or crouch. Department/Location Specific Requirements and Comments Any other task that may be required during the performance of duties Ability to travel as dictated by job requirements This job will require the majority of work to be performed in a well-lighted, temperature-controlled office setting. Most activities require work to be performed at field locations, governmental agencies, corporate entities, and client offices. There are frequent interruptions during the workday for impromptu meetings." We need to decide what to include as qualifications. The "Department/Location Specific Requirements and Comments" etc could be considered additional requirements. We'll include them as list items under Qualifications (or maybe a separate Requirements section). But we have only Qualifications heading allowed. We'll put all under Qualifications. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, disclaimers, etc. Also remove "Benefits*: TRC offers a competitive benefit package consisting of:" but we need to keep benefits details. Benefits section: list items: - Medical, dental, vision, and disability insurance. - 401k package that includes both traditional and Roth IRA options and Company match. - Paid time off contingent upon full-time status, PTO is 7 days per year. - All full-time employees enjoy a minimum of 8 Paid Holidays per year. - TRC ensures that all employees, including those that work part-time, receive paid sick, family, and disability leave in accordance with the laws of their state of residence. - These benefits are applicable to US employees depending on their employment status (full time, part time, or temporary). - TRC offers jurisdiction specific benefit packages for International and Puerto Rico employees. We should keep as list. Pay section: Compensation details: "Compensation: In accordance with local law, the below salary range is applicable for the job and location associated with this requisition. Compensation will vary based upon experience, education, skill level, geographical location, and other compensable factors. Other Compensation: Employee may be eligible for participation in the Company’s annual Discretionary Bonus Program which is contingent on Company, Business Segment, and Individual performance against Key Performance Indicators which vary by year and employee. Salary Range USD $45,500.00 - USD $84,500.00 /Yr." We need to preserve all substantive information. We'll make a Pay section with maybe a paragraph describing compensation and then list salary range? Could be a

for prose and maybe a

for salary range? But salary range is a single value; we can put in

. The instruction: Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. So for Pay, we can have a

  describing compensation and salary range. We should not include "Other Compensation: Employee may be eligible..." as separate list? It's prose. Now we need to ensure we don't include headings with empty content. We'll produce:

  About the role

  ... (company overview + overview)

  Responsibilities

  • ...
  ...

  Qualifications

  • ...
  ...

  Benefits

  ...

  We must not include Schedule section because no info. Now we need to craft the About the role paragraph: combine About Us description and Overview. About Us: "TRC, Member of WSP, is a global consulting environmental and engineering firm and one of the top design firms in the energy sector.

  . We'll keep as one

  containing all. Now Responsibilities list as above. Qualifications list: need to break each requirement into separate

• .
