We need to output only HTML fragment, using

for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to parse the job description. Key sections: - About the role: description of opportunity, location, team, what they do, impact? Might be "About the role" or "About the role" heading. - Responsibilities: list of duties: "Your Impact" bullet points. - Requirements: maybe "Who You Are" includes required qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe separate "Preferred Qualifications". - Skills: maybe not separate; but we can include under Requirements or Qualifications. - Benefits: "WSP Benefits" section. - Pay: "Compensation Expected Salary" sections. - Schedule: not mentioned; we should not create Schedule section if not present. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use

for each section heading. Inside sections, use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to drop Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). Also drop "About WSP" maybe? That's more about company; but we could include as "About WSP" maybe not required heading list; but we can include as prose under maybe "About the role"? However the instruction says use headings only from list; we could still include other headings? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings when appropriate. It doesn't forbid other headings, but better to stick to those. We have content about WSP mission etc. Could be placed under "About the role" as prose. We need to include location info: "Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tallahassee, and open to other offices within the state." That's part of role. We need to include "Senior Consultant" role description. Let's extract substantive content: From "This Opportunity" paragraph: - WSP is initiating a search for a Senior Consultant to join the Grants Strategy and Development Team in Florida offices. Locations considered: Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tallahassee, and open to other offices within the state. - WSP’s Grants Strategy and Development Team supports clients in planning, securing, and managing grant funding from federal, state, and local sources.

Devotion to teamwork has allowed building communities and expand skylines. Come join us and help shape the future! Then "Your Impact" bullet points: - Lead post-award grant management and compliance strategies for public infrastructure projects, on behalf of clients, and in collaboration with the Advisory team and other WSP practice groups - Contribute to various business development efforts with a particular emphasis on building the Grant Strategy and Development Team’s portfolio of post-award grant management support contracts – from opportunity identification, proposal development, interview and negotiations - Leverage professional network across industry to support business development opportunities, marketing, proposals, and cross-selling of other WSP capabilities - Contribute to client engagement and foster client relationships - Demonstrate knowledge of Federal regulations and grant requirements, ensure all grant activities are compliant with Federal guidelines including 2 CFR 200 (Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards). - Manage and oversee the development of complex post-award grant deliverables such as preparing milestone/progress and financial reports, obligating grant funds and managing grant agreements, conducting subrecipient oversight, and grant closeout. - Take initiative and work collaboratively with other team members to deliver high-quality deliverables and client services - Serve as task lead / key staff for grant assistance contracts; manage scope, schedule, and budget Then "Who You Are" Required Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Public Policy, Urban or Transportation Planning, or related discipline. - 5-7 years of relevant experience performing complex grant functions, including grant writing for federal discretionary programs, executing grant agreements, post-award grant administration, and grant accounting functions such as reconciliations, reimbursement requests, and financial reporting. - Previous experience supporting business development efforts, shaping pursuit strategy, and securing new advisory engagements with public- and private-sector client. - Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills - Ability to work well with multiple deadlines and flexibility to adapt to unanticipated client requests for grant development and/or management support - Experience with post-award grant management platforms such as the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Transit Award Management System (TrAMS) - Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct and adhere to WSP's Code of conduct and related policies and procedures. - Proven track record of upholding workplace safety and ability to abide by WSP’s health, safety and drug/alcohol and harassment policies Then "Preferred Qualifications": - Master's degree in Finance, Accounting, Public Policy, Urban or Transportation Planning, or related disciplines - Demonstrated ability to engage effectively with private- and public-sector clients, including federal, state, regional, or local agencies - Familiarity with administration of grants related to energy, water, and other infrastructure - Strong understanding of federal and state-level infrastructure policy and funding - Familiarity with non-Federal grants, such as State grants from California, Florida, New York and other States - Active member of local professional organizations Then "WSP Benefits": - WSP provides a comprehensive suite of benefits focused on a providing health and financial stability throughout the employee’s career. These benefits include coverage related to medical, dental, vision, disability, and life; retirement savings; paid sick leave; paid vacation (or other personal time); paid parental leave; and paid time off for purposes of bereavement, voting, and/or attendance at naturalization proceedings. Then "Compensation Expected Salary (all locations): $89,600 - $156,600" plus explanation. Then "Expected Salary (Colorado only): $89,600 - $130,600" plus explanation. We need to include Pay section with salary ranges. Should we include both? Probably include the ranges as prose. We should not include the explanatory boilerplate about good faith etc? That's part of compensation description; it's substantive? It's more legal boilerplate but it's part of the posting. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The compensation explanation might be considered legal boilerplate but it's part of the posting; not sure if we should remove. It says "WSP USA is providing the compensation range that the company in good faith believes it might pay and offer for this position, based on ...". That's somewhat boilerplate but it's part of the compensation description. Might be okay to keep as prose. We also have "About WSP" section with description of WSP USA etc. That's company overview; could be included under "About the role" or separate? Not in heading list. Could be omitted as it's somewhat boilerplate but it's substantive about company. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep it. But we need to fit into headings. Could put under "About the role" as prose. We also have "WSP provides a flexible and agile workplace model while meeting client needs. Employees are also afforded a comprehensive suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, life, and retirement savings focused on providing health and financial stability throughout the employee’s career. At WSP, we want to give our employees the challenges they seek to grow their careers and knowledge base. Your daily contributions to your team will be essential in meeting client objectives, goals and challenges. Are you ready to get started?" That's more boilerplate/encouragement; could be considered fluff but it's substantive? Might be considered generic; but we could keep as part of "About the role". However we should avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". This is not that. We also have EEO statement and other legal notices at end; we must remove those. Also "Notice To Third Party Agencies" etc - remove. Also "Are you ready to get started?" maybe keep as part of closing but it's not a heading; could be prose. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's structure:

    But that's a lot; maybe we should split into sections: About the role (overview), Responsibilities (Your Impact), Requirements (Required Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Benefits, Pay. We need to avoid duplication: The benefits description appears twice; we should include only once. We need to ensure we don't include legal boilerplate like "WSP USA is providing the compensation range that the company in good faith believes..." Might be okay but could be considered legal; but it's part of compensation description. I'd keep it. Now, let's craft. Section: About the role - include overview of role, location, team, mission. Section: Responsibilities - list of impact bullet points. Section: Requirements - required qualifications bullet list. Section:
