Senior Data and Performance Manager ADMINISTRATOR VI
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. 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.
We need to extract substantive content: Introduction paragraphs, description, responsibilities, qualifications, desired qualifications, benefits, pay (grade and range), location, maybe schedule? Not given schedule. So we should not include Schedule section unless present. Pay: we have Grade 21; Range: $111,314 - $120,491. That's pay info, so we should include Pay section. Benefits: there is a Benefits heading with "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". Then after that there is further instructions and EEO boilerplate which we should remove. So we need to capture benefits content: likely just "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". But that's vague; maybe we should include that as benefits section content. However we need to avoid filler placeholder text. "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS" is not specific but it's the heading; maybe there is no detail. The instruction says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state Benefits heading but no detail. Should we include it? It says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". The Benefits heading is followed by "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". That's not specific content; it's just a label. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit Benefits section if no detail. However the posting includes "Benefits STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". That's maybe the content: they state that benefits are provided per State of Maryland. Could be considered substantive? It's vague but it's stating that benefits are provided. The instruction says avoid filler like "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS" is not exactly filler but it's not detailed. I'd lean to include Benefits section with a
stating "State of Maryland benefits package." But we must not invent detail. We could just put
State of Maryland benefits.
but that's essentially repeating the heading. Might be okay.
Pay: we have Grade 21; Range: $111,314 - $120,491. That's specific, so include Pay section.
Location: we have "LOCATION OF POSITION Annapolis, MD with teleworking flexibility". That's substantive; could be part of About the role or a separate section? There's no heading for Location in the list, but we could include it in About the role paragraph.
We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include those with real content.
Let's map content:
- About the role: Introduction paragraphs describing role, appointment, purpose, etc. That's substantive.
- Responsibilities: list of duties under "Responsibilities:" bullet points (though not bullet but sentences). We can convert to - .
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (Education, Experience, Note). That's requirements.
- Qualifications: Desired Or Preferred Qualifications (advanced degree preferred, skills, etc.) That's qualifications.
- Skills: Could be extracted from desired qualifications: strong written/verbal communication, advanced proficiency in data visualization tools, spreadsheet software, AI tools, familiarity with data querying/statistical software, experience in performance management, strategic planning, data analytics, public administration, familiarity with performance improvement methodologies, experience working with government agencies, exceptional interpersonal skills, ability to handle sensitive info. That's skills. Could be a separate Skills section.
- Benefits: we have "STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". Might include.
- Pay: Grade and range.
- Schedule: not present, so omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no
Senior Data and Performance Manager.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
We'll produce sections in order: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay.
Each section: Section Title
then content.
For lists: use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For Benefits, if we just have a sentence, we can use
. For Requirements, we have Education, Experience, Note. Could be list.
For Qualifications, we have bullet-like items; we can list.
For Skills, we can list.
Let's extract precise text.
Introduction:
"Introduction The Senior Data and Performance Manager is appointed by, and serves at the pleasure of, the Governor. The successful candidate will possess the core competencies, skills, and passion to further performance management and data-driven decision making within the Moore-Miller administration. This position sits within the Executive Office of Governor Wes Moore, within the Governor’s Office of Performance Improvement. To apply, please submit your resume and a cover letter to Cambria Winkel at cambria.winkel@maryland.gov by the deadline, Wednesday, October 8, 2026 at 11:59PM ET. The subject line should read: YOUR NAME – Senior Data and Performance Manager"
We need to remove application instructions (the To apply...). So we should strip that sentence. Also remove the subject line instruction. So About the role content: first sentence(s) up to before "To apply". So:
"The Senior Data and Performance Manager is appointed by, and serves at the pleasure of, the Governor. The successful candidate will possess the core competencies, skills, and passion to further performance management and data-driven decision making within the Moore-Miller administration. This position sits within the Executive Office of Governor Wes Moore, within the Governor’s Office of Performance Improvement."
That's about the role.
Responsibilities: after "Responsibilities:" we have a paragraph with multiple sentences separated by periods. Let's capture each as list items.
Responsibilities text:
"Serving as lead Governor’s Office of Performance Improvement team member supporting agency teams and executives with select high-impact performance management efforts mapped to key Moore-Miller administration priorities.
Working closely with agency leadership and teams on key priorities that require analytical and performance management expertise, developing analytical strategies and performance approaches that guide agency operations and, where applicable, guide state-wide implementation.
Conducting background research to understand data currently collected for relevant topics and identifying additional relevant data sets for the Governor’s Office of Performance Improvement in order to influence decision-making and implementation plans.
Serving as key point of contact and liaison for the performance improvement efforts within the Governor’s Office of Performance Improvement with other technical teams and agencies as it relates to connecting data systems, processes, and working groups with the administration’s performance approach.
Conduct statistical analyses using appropriate software and/or programming languages as needed to test hypotheses, predict outcomes, and inform decisions — or support agencies in doing so.
Building relationships with other data and performance leads to serve as a trusted thought partner on data-driven decision making and performance management efforts across state government.
Providing expertise to the Chief Performance Office and Deputy Chief Performance Officer to support overall data-driven decisions"
We'll make each a

Requirements: Minimum Qualifications:
"Education : Possession of a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university.
Experience : At least eight (8) years of experience as a Performance Analyst, Policy Analyst, Data Analyst, Research Assistant, or in a similar role, preferably in a government or political setting.
Note : Candidates may substitute 4 additional years of experience as defined above for the education requirement."
We'll make list items.
Qualifications: Desired Or Preferred Qualifications:
"The successful candidate will have demonstrated many or preferably all of the following:
Possession of an advanced degree from an accredited college or university is preferred.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to synthesize complex data into clear and understandable formats for executives and other non-technical audiences.
Advanced proficiency in data visualization tools and spreadsheet software as well as artificial intelligence tools.
Familiarity with data querying or statistical software is a strong plus.
Experience in performance management, strategic planning, data analytics, and/or public administration.
Familiarity and/or experience with performance improvement and continuous improvement methodologies and practices.
Experience working within or closely with government agencies or large institutions is highly preferred.
Exceptional interpersonal skills with a proven ability to facilitate meetings, build consensus, and navigate complex organizational environments.
Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion."
We'll make list items.
Skills: Could be extracted from the desired qualifications but we already have them in Qualifications. However we need a Skills section per instruction list. But we might combine Qualifications and Skills? The instruction says we can have sections for those headings if content exists. We have both Qualifications and Skills content. We could treat Qualifications as the desired qualifications (including education/experience preferences) and Skills as specific skill sets. But there is overlap. To avoid duplication, we could put all desired qualifications under Qualifications, and maybe Skills section could be omitted or we could extract specific skill items like communication, data visualization, etc. But that would duplicate. Better to follow the instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does have a "Desired Or Preferred Qualifications" block, which includes both qualifications and skills. We could map that to Qualifications section. For Skills, we might not have a separate explicit skills list beyond that. So we could omit Skills section to avoid thin content. However the instruction list includes Skills as a possible heading; we can omit if not specific.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits?, Pay.
Benefits: we have "Benefits STATE OF MARYLAND BENEFITS". That's not detailed. Might be considered filler. I'd omit Benefits section.
Pay: we have "GRADE Grade 21; Range: $111,314 - $120,491". That's specific.
Location: we have "LOCATION OF POSITION Annapolis, MD with teleworking flexibility". Could be included in About the role as a sentence.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must include location info somewhere. We can add to About the role after the first paragraph: "The position is located in Annapolis, MD with teleworking flexibility."
We must not include application instructions, EEO boilerplate, duplicated lines.
Now construct HTML.
We'll have:
