We need to output HTML fragment with 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 as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Description & Requirements: includes overview of Forensics & Litigation Services, what you will do (list of duties). That's responsibilities. - Minimum Qualifications: bullet list. - Preferred Qualifications: bullet list. - About Forvis Mazars, LLP: description of firm. - What We Offer: benefits description. - Legal Notice etc: boilerplate to remove. - Illinois Wage Transparency: salary range specifics for IL. - Virginia Wage Transparency: salary range specifics for VA. Thus we have Pay info: salary ranges for IL and VA. Should we include Pay section? Yes, posting states salary ranges. So we can include Pay section with those ranges. Benefits: "What We Offer" includes robust total rewards program, flexible work environment, group health plan benefits, 401(K), bonuses, profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, parental leave. So Benefits section. Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. No schedule info. So we should not include Schedule heading. Skills: Not explicitly listed as a separate section; but we could infer from qualifications: proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, experience leading investigations, etc. However we should only create Skills section if posting has real specific content for it. The posting does not have a dedicated "Skills" heading, but we could extract skills from qualifications and responsibilities. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications. Probably better to not create a Skills section unless there is explicit skills list. There's proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, experience leading..., etc. Those are qualifications/experience. So we can put them under Requirements or Qualifications. We need sections: About the role (maybe overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. So we start with

About the role

then paragraph summarizing the overview (the first paragraph about Forensics & Litigation Services). Then Responsibilities: list of duties from "What You Will Do". Use
  • . Requirements: Minimum Qualifications bullet list. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications bullet list. Benefits: from "What We Offer". Could also include mention of flexible work environment, total rewards, etc. Pay: include salary ranges for IL and VA. Should we combine? Provide both. We must not include boilerplate like Legal Notice, EEO, etc. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, pay. Let's extract responsibilities list exactly as bullet points from "What You Will Do". The text: Lead complex forensic accounting and litigation engagements from planning through delivery, including defining scope, developing workplans, managing budgets and timelines, coordinating multidisciplinary resources, and communicating progress and findings to clients and counsel. Direct large-scale internal company investigations involving potential fraud, whistleblower complaints, and other areas of suspected financial misconduct, misappropriation, corruption, or control failures, including records analysis, transaction tracing, investigative interviews, and synthesis of evidence. Manage SEC, governmental, and other regulatory related matters, working with legal counsel, corporate leadership, audit and special committees, and other stakeholders to respond to inquiries and develop clear, well supported findings. Lead financial reporting and accounting investigations involving alleged misstatements, restatements, earnings management, revenue recognition, reserves, related-party transactions, technical accounting issues, and internal control deficiencies. Advise clients and counsel on post-closing disputes and M&A related litigation, including working capital and purchase price adjustments, earnouts, indemnification claims, accounting interpretation disputes, and damages analyses. Provide complex commercial litigation support by analyzing financial, accounting, and operational records; developing damages and lost-profits models; assessing claims and counterclaims; and preparing defensible analyses for mediation, arbitration, or trial. Apply advanced forensic accounting, data analytics, and critical-thinking techniques to identify patterns, anomalies, and relevant evidence across large and complex data sets. Prepare and review workpapers, investigative reports, expert reports, exhibits, and client communications, maintaining rigorous quality control and compliance with professional, legal, and regulatory standards. Serve as a primary client contact and trusted advisor, translating complex financial findings into clear, practical insights for legal counsel, boards, executives, and other decision makers. Assist with preparing for and participating in meetings and presentations with regulators, including presenting investigative findings. Support expert witnesses and counsel through discovery, deposition, mediation, arbitration, and trial preparation; provide expert testimony when appropriate based on experience and credentials. Mentor and develop team members, delegate work based on experience and skill, provide timely feedback, contribute to performance evaluations, and foster a collaborative and inclusive team environment. Develop and deepen relationships with law firms, corporate counsel, financial executives, and referral sources to identify new opportunities and expand services with existing clients. Contribute to practice-building initiatives by leading or supporting proposals, developing thought leadership, participating in industry and professional events, and collaborating across service lines and markets to bring the firm's capabilities to clients. That's a lot; we need to keep all. Minimum Qualifications bullet list: - Bachelor's Degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, or a related field - 7+ years of experience in forensics & litigation consulting services - Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite - Experience leading large-scale fraud, internal, financial reporting, or accounting investigations, including matters involving the SEC or other governmental and regulatory bodies. - Experience supporting post-closing disputes, M&A litigation, and complex commercial litigation, including damages, lost profits, purchase price adjustments, earnouts, or related accounting analyses. - Demonstrated experience developing client relationships, generating opportunities, supporting proposals, and contributing to growth of a forensics and litigation practice. Preferred Qualifications bullet list: - Master's Degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, Business, or a related field - Experience providing expert testimony, supporting a testifying expert, or preparing matters for deposition, mediation, arbitration, or trial. - Current and valid professional business credentials, including one or more of the following: CPA, CFA, ABV, ASA, MAFF, CFE, AVA, or CFF. - Experience with business valuation disputes , , , , , , , , , (looks like garbled; but we need to preserve as is? The posting includes "Experience with business valuation disputes , , , , , , , , ," which seems like placeholder commas. According to instruction, we should not include filler/placeholder text like ", , , , , , , , ," maybe it's meaningless. We should preserve substantive information; the commas are not substantive. Might be better to drop that line entirely as it's just filler. However we must not invent or summarize away detail; but the detail is meaningless. I'd argue it's filler and we can omit it. The instruction: "Do NOT invent or summarize away detail." But also "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD")". This line is filler. So we should omit it. Thus Preferred Qualifications list includes first three bullets. About Forvis Mazars, LLP paragraph: "Forvis Mazars, LLP is an independent member of Forvis Mazars Global, a leading global professional services network.

But also benefits specifics: group health plan benefits, 401(K), bonuses, profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, parental leave. Those appear in Illinois and Virginia wage transparency sections: "Benefits are eligibility-based and could include group health plan benefits, 401(K), bonuses, profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, and parental leave." Also earlier: "What We Offer Our robust total rewards program and flexible work environment reflect our commitment to people, careers, and well-being-empowering our team to grow and thrive while delivering exceptional service." Thus Benefits section should include that description. Pay: include IL Minimum Salary $135,700, IL Maximum $281,900; VA Minimum $148,100, VA Maximum $307,500. Also note that salary based on experience etc. We should preserve that detail. We should not include Schedule. Now construct HTML. We'll have:

    Make sure no extra whitespace? It's fine. Now craft the paragraphs. About the role paragraph: combine the first two paragraphs: "Description & Requirements Forensics & Litigation Services at Forvis Mazars provides critical support to clients navigating investigations, complex disputes, and legal proceedings. The team combines deep financial expertise with advanced forensic technology to uncover facts, investigate potential financial irregularities, assess damages, and deliver defensible insights. Services include fraud investigations, litigation consulting, expert witness testimony, and dispute resolution. Professionals in this practice work closely with legal counsel, corporate leadership, and regulatory bodies to address issues such as financial misconduct, business disputes, and economic damages." That's the overview. Now Responsibilities: list each bullet as above. Requirements: list each bullet. Qualifications: list each bullet (Master's, expert testimony, credentials). Possibly also include "Experience with business valuation disputes" but we decided it's filler; omit. Benefits paragraph: combine: "Our robust total rewards program and flexible work environment reflect our commitment to people, careers, and well-being-empowering our team to grow and thrive while delivering exceptional service. Benefits are eligibility-based and could include group health plan benefits, 401(K), bonuses, profit-sharing contributions, flexible time off, and parental leave." Also maybe mention "To explore what makes working at Forvis Mazars special, visit www.forvismazars.us/careers." That's a link; but we should not include application instructions? This is not application instruction; it's just a link to careers. Might be okay to keep. However instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." This is not application instruction; it's a generic link. I'd keep it as part of Benefits paragraph. Pay paragraph: include both state ranges and note that salary based on experience etc. Also note that non-exempt/hourly positions eligible for overtime etc. That's from Illinois and Virginia sections. We should preserve that. Thus Pay paragraph: "Illinois: minimum salary $135,700, maximum salary $281,900. Virginia: minimum salary $148,100, maximum salary $307,500. Salary for this role will be based on the experience, education, and skill set of the individual. Non-exempt/hourly positions will be eligible for overtime pay (time and a half) for hours worked
