Senior Associate, SALT Asset Management (remote option)

We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate, EEO, legal, etc. Keep substantive info. Let's parse the posting: Intro: "At KPMG, you can become an integral part of a dynamic team at one of the worlds top tax firms. Enjoy a collaborative, future-forward culture that empowers your success. Work with KPMGs extensive network of specialists; enjoy access to our Ignition Centers, where deep industry knowledge merges with cutting-edge technologies to create innovative tax solutions. Join a diverse team helping high-profile clients understand, analyze, and respond to complex business opportunities and challenges.

At KPMG, we believe nothing is more important than investing in our culture because it is an investment in our people, our future, and what we stand for as a firm. KPMG is currently seeking a Senior Associate to join our State and Local Tax (SALT) practice." That's about the role/overview. Could be "About the role". We'll put that in

About the role

with

containing that paragraph. Then "Responsibilities:" list: - Support multi-state companies with state and local income tax compliance - Help clients with tax issues related to state and local income and franchise taxes - Review state income and franchise tax estimated payments, extensions and tax returns - Assist in handling notices received from state tax authorities We'll put

Responsibilities

with

• each. Then "Qualifications:" block: - Minimum three years of recent experience preparing and/or reviewing state income tax returns and providing technical advice on multi-state tax issues - Masters degree from an accredited college or university preferred; Bachelors degree with requisite hours to pursue CPA certification or JD/LLM; CPA certification a plus. - State income tax return review experience required - Ability to foster relationships both internally as well as with clients - Excellent writing, compliance, communication, and tax research skills - Capability and desire to perform in a high-energy team environment We could separate into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The instruction says use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. We have qualifications list includes experience, education, skills. Could split: Requirements (experience, education), Qualifications (maybe certifications?), Skills (writing, communication, etc). But we need to follow typical pattern: Requirements = minimum experience/education; Qualifications = preferred qualifications; Skills = specific skills. However we must not invent sections with placeholder text. We need to ensure each section has real content. Let's extract: Experience: Minimum three years of recent experience preparing and/or reviewing state income tax returns and providing technical advice on multi-state tax issues. State income tax return review experience required. Education: Masters degree from an accredited college or university preferred; Bachelors degree with requisite hours to pursue CPA certification or JD/LLM; CPA certification a plus. Skills: Ability to foster relationships both internally as well as with clients; Excellent writing, compliance, communication, and tax research skills; Capability and desire to perform in a high-energy team environment. Thus we can have:

  Requirements

  with
  for experience and education? Actually education could be part of Requirements as well. But we might separate: Requirements (experience), Qualifications (education/certifications), Skills (soft/technical skills). Let's decide. Requirements: Minimum three years of recent experience preparing and/or reviewing state income tax returns and providing technical advice on multi-state tax issues; State income tax return review experience required. Qualifications: Masters degree from an accredited college or university preferred; Bachelors degree with requisite hours to pursue CPA certification or JD/LLM; CPA certification a plus. Skills: Ability to foster relationships both internally as well as with clients; Excellent writing, compliance, communication, and tax research skills; Capability and desire to perform in a high-energy team environment. Now Benefits: The posting mentions: "In addition, KPMG is proud to offer a comprehensive, competitive benefits package, with options designed to help you make the best decisions for yourself, your family, and your lifestyle. Available benefits are based on eligibility. Our Total Rewards package includes a variety of medical and dental plans, vision coverage, disability and life insurance, 401(k) plans, and a robust suite of personal well-being benefits to support your mental health. Depending on job classification, standard work hours, and years of service, KPMG provides Personal Time Off per fiscal year. Additionally, each year KPMG publishes a calendar of holidays to be observed during the year and provides eligible employees two breaks each year where employees will not be required to use Personal Time Off; one is at year end and the other is around the July 4th holiday." Thus we have Benefits content. Also Pay: "California Salary Range: $77330 - $157665". Also earlier: "KPMG LLP and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“KPMG”) complies with all local/state regulations regarding displaying salary ranges. If required, the ranges displayed below or via the URL below are specifically for those potential hires who will work in the location(s) listed. Any offered salary is determined based on relevant factors such as applicant's skills, job responsibilities, prior relevant experience, certain degrees and certifications and market considerations." That's boilerplate but includes salary range. We should keep the specific salary range. The instruction: include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state California Salary Range: $77330 - $157665. So we can include Pay section with that. Schedule: Not explicitly stated. There's mention of Personal Time Off, holidays, breaks but not standard work hours. Could infer but not explicit. The instruction: never create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does not state standard work hours or schedule. So we omit Schedule. We also have a link for salary ranges by city outside of CA, but that's a link; we could include as part of Pay maybe? But we should not include application instructions or links? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The link to salary ranges is not exactly application instruction, but it's a reference. Might be okay to keep as part of Pay? However it's a link; we could include as plain text? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. The link is substantive? It's a reference for salary ranges. Might be considered part of Pay info. But it's a URL; we could include as

  with the URL. However it's not a direct salary range; it's a link to get ranges. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO/legal. It's about pay transparency. Could keep. But we already have California Salary Range. The link is for outside CA. Could include as part of Pay section: "See https://kpmg.com/us/en/how-we-work/pay-transparency.html/?id=M315B_4_26 for salary ranges by city outside of CA." We'll include that. Now Benefits: we have details. We'll put in

  • each benefit. We need to avoid repeating boilerplate like "Depending on job classification, standard work hours, and years of service, KPMG provides Personal Time Off per fiscal year." That's substantive. Also "Additionally, each year KPMG publishes a calendar of holidays to be observed during the year and provides eligible employees two breaks each year where employees will not be required to use Personal Time Off; one is at year end and the other is around the July 4th holiday." That's also substantive. We'll include those as list items. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:

    We need to ensure no extra sections like Schedule. Also ensure we didn't include EEO etc. We removed boilerplate. Check for any duplicated lines: we didn't repeat. Check for any placeholder like "commensurate with experience" - none. Check for any minor metadata like Job ID - none. Check for any navigation/legal - we removed. Check for any mention of "KPMG LLP and its affiliates..." we removed that paragraph as it's boilerplate about salary ranges display; but we kept the salary range itself and link. The paragraph about compliance with local/state regulations regarding displaying salary ranges is boilerplate; we removed it. Good. Check for any mention of "KPMG offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package." That's somewhat redundant with Benefits; we could keep but it's somewhat generic. Might be considered boilerplate? It's a statement but
