Senior Cost Manager / Quantity Surveyor

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro about Turner & Townsend (company description). Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes description of role and company. The posting includes: "Job Description Turner & Townsend are looking for an experienced Senior Cost Manager and/or Quantity Surveyor to act as the key, day to day client interface, ensuring that client objectives are met through the delivery of a value-added cost management service. To be successful in this role you must have great communication skills and be comfortable operating in a client-facing role. The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, driven, and able to work independently as well as part of a team. In this significant position, you will be responsible for providing leadership and direction, embedding, and promoting the purpose, values, and vision of Turner & Townsend." That could be "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities". But we have a separate "Responsibilities:" heading later. Thus we can have:

About the role

with paragraph(s) summarizing the role description (the part before "Responsibilities:"). Then

Responsibilities

with a

• list of each bullet after "Responsibilities:" until "Qualifications". Need to extract bullet points. Let's extract responsibilities list: From the text after "Responsibilities:": "Estimating and negotiating change orders throughout the construction lifecycle. Provide estimate and cost planning to include producing and presenting the final cost plan. Review and participate with the design services team and general contractor in the development of cost estimates. Reconcile changes and assist the general contractor to ensure that their data is accurate. Communicate or meet with the general contractor and owner of project manager to gather status information to prepare a cost estimate update. Prepare written comments to the general contractor’s submissions, including the executive summary. Coordinate all sources of cost information for cost discussions and suppliers direct from NPA, subs, quantities from A/Es. Inform and drive engineering priorities based on cost impact.

We need to ensure each bullet is a
• . Some lines may be incomplete grammar; but we keep as is. Now after responsibilities, we see "Qualifications" heading. Qualifications content: "Bachelor’s degree in construction management, cost management, quantity surveying, engineering or field related to construction. Minimum 5-7 years of relevant experience working in a cost management role in the construction industry. RICS accredited or working towards it is preferred. Experience of leading cost management on medium or large sized construction projects of medium to high complexity. Construction consultancy experience is strongly preferred. Good knowledge of construction industry technical matters, such as different procurement routes, value management, and value engineering. Excellent communication skills." We can put these as
  • under

    Qualifications

    . Now "Additional Information" includes bullet points: "*On site requirements might change based on client needs* SOX control responsibilities may be part of this role, which are to be adhered to where applicable. Our inspired people share our vision and mission. We provide a great place to work, where each person has the opportunity and voice to affect change. We want our people to succeed both in work and life. To support this we promote a healthy, productive and flexible working environment that respects work-life balance. Turner & Townsend is an equal opportunity employer.

In order to be an authorised Recruitment Agency/Search Firm for Turner & Townsend, there must be a formal written agreement in place and the agency must be invited, by the Recruitment Team, to submit candidates for review." We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions, social media maybe? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove EEO statements, equal opportunity, scam warning about fees, duplicated lines, social media maybe considered navigation? It says "Join our social media conversations..." that's likely promotional but not strictly boilerplate? Might be considered navigation? Safer to remove it as it's not substantive job info. Also remove duplicated fee warning lines. Thus from Additional Information we keep substantive info: "*On site requirements might change based on client needs*" (maybe as a note), "SOX control responsibilities may be part of this role, which are to be adhered to where applicable.", "Our inspired people share our vision and mission. We provide a great place to work, where each person has the opportunity and voice to affect change. We want our people to succeed both in work and life. To support this we promote a healthy, productive and flexible working environment that respects work-life balance." That's about culture/benefits maybe. We could put that under a section "Benefits" if there is mention of benefits like flexible working environment, healthy productive flexible work environment, etc. The posting does not explicitly list benefits like health insurance, etc. But we have a statement about flexible working environment, healthy productive flexible work environment, opportunity to affect change, succeed both in work and life. That could be considered benefits or culture. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could include a Benefits section with that content. However we must not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does state flexible working environment etc. So we can include Benefits. Also "On site requirements might change based on client needs" could be under Schedule? Not exactly schedule. Could be under "Additional Information" but we don't have a heading for that; we could incorporate into a

    under Benefits or maybe under a generic section like "Additional Information". But we only allowed headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. There's no "Additional Information". So we need to fit the extra info into appropriate sections. "On site requirements might change based on client needs" could be under Schedule (maybe about location). But schedule is about work schedule (full-time, part-time, shift). Not exactly. Could be under Requirements? Not really. Could be under About the role as a note. "SOX control responsibilities may be part of this role, which are to be adhered to where applicable." Could be under Responsibilities (maybe as an extra duty). Could add as a bullet under Responsibilities. The culture/benefits paragraph could go under Benefits. Thus we will: - About the role: paragraph(s) from before Responsibilities. - Responsibilities:

    • list of all duties (including the SOX bullet maybe). We'll incorporate the SOX bullet as a responsibility. - Qualifications:
      • list. - Benefits:

        containing the culture/benefits paragraph (healthy productive flexible working environment, opportunity to affect change, succeed both in work and life). Also maybe mention "On site requirements might change based on client needs" could be under Benefits? Not really. Could be under Schedule? Not schedule. Could be under About the role as a note. We could add a short

        under About the role after the main description: "*On site requirements might change based on client needs*". That seems appropriate. Thus final HTML:
