We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings. Preserve all substantive info; remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Intro: "Senior Manager, Government Affairs Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce Denver, CO | Full-Time | Exempt Shape Public Policy. Build Stronger Communities. Advance Colorado's Economy. At the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce, we believe a thriving business community creates opportunity for everyone. For more than 150 years, we've brought together business leaders, policymakers and community partners to strengthen Colorado's economy, develop leaders and advocate for policies that help businesses and communities succeed. We're looking for an experienced government affairs professional who is passionate about public policy, relationship building and creating meaningful impact.

If you enjoy solving complex challenges, bringing people together around shared goals and making a lasting impact on Colorado's future, we'd love to meet you." - "Why you'll love this role" paragraph: "This is more than a government affairs position, it's an opportunity to become a trusted advisor, policy leader and advocate for Colorado's business community. As the Senior Manager, Government Affairs, you'll partner closely with the Vice President of External Affairs to shape legislative strategy, represent the Chamber with elected officials and business leaders, facilitate policy discussions and help guide initiatives that influence Colorado's economic future. You'll have the opportunity to:" then bullet list: • Help shape public policy that impacts businesses across Colorado. • Engage with elected leaders at the local and state level, business executives, community leaders, and strategic partners. • Lead high-impact initiatives from concept through execution. • Facilitate meaningful conversations that bring diverse perspectives together. • Serve as a trusted advisor and mentor within the Government Affairs team. • Represent one of Colorado's most influential business organizations. - "What You'll Own" with subheadings: Legislative Strategy & Policy Advocacy, Coalition Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement, Committee Leadership & Member Engagement, Strategic Initiatives & Organizational Impact, Operational Excellence & Department Partnership. Each with description. - "What You'll Bring": bullet list of qualifications. - "Why Join the Chamber?" paragraph: "When you join the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce, you'll become part of a collaborative team dedicated to making Colorado a better place to live, work and do business. We offer:" then bullet list: • Competitive compensation • Comprehensive medical, dental and vision benefits • Generous paid time off and paid holidays • 401(k) retirement plan • Professional development opportunities • A collaborative, mission-driven culture • Meaningful work that makes a lasting impact across Colorado - "Compensation": "$90,000-$110,000 annually, depending on qualifications and experience." - "Supervisory Responsibilities": description. - "Physical Requirements": bullet list. - "A Note About This Role": paragraph. - EEO boilerplate: remove. We need to map to sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (What You'll Own), Requirements/Qualifications/Skills (What You'll Bring), Benefits (Why Join the Chamber? benefits list), Pay (Compensation), Schedule (maybe not present; we have Full-Time but not schedule details; we should not create Schedule unless stated). There's no explicit schedule beyond Full-Time; but we could include Schedule if we have info like "Full-Time". The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It states Full-Time but not schedule details like hours. Might be okay to include Schedule with "Full-Time". However, they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might combine Pay and Benefits? But they want separate headings if content exists. We have Pay (Compensation) and Benefits (Why Join the Chamber?). Schedule: we have "Full-Time" mentioned in header line. Could include Schedule section with that. But we need to avoid filler like "not specified". "Full-Time" is specific enough. So we can include Schedule. We also have "Supervisory Responsibilities" and "Physical Requirements" and "A Note About This Role". Those could be part of Responsibilities or Requirements? But we could create separate sections if they have substantive content. However, the instruction: "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests those are examples; we can also use other headings if needed? It says use those for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should stick to those headings; we shouldn't create other headings like Supervisory Responsibilities. So we need to map content into those categories. Thus: - About the role: intro paragraph + Why you'll love this role paragraph + bullet list of opportunities? Actually the bullet list under "Why you'll love this role" could be part of Responsibilities? But we can include in About the role as overview. - Responsibilities: What You'll Own (the five bullet groups). Could also include the bullet list from Why you'll love this role? Might be overlapping. But we can put What You'll Own as Responsibilities. - Requirements / Qualifications / Skills: What You'll Bring bullet list. - Benefits: Why Join the Chamber? bullet list. - Pay: Compensation line. - Schedule: Full-Time (maybe also Exempt). Could include "Full-Time, Exempt". We should not repeat job title as heading. So no

    Senior Manager, Government Affairs

    . We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use

    for each section heading. Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

      for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact wording? Probably keep the substance but can rephrase slightly as long as not losing detail. Safer to copy the text. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions (none). Also remove "A Note About This Role"? That's not boilerplate; it's substantive about role description. Should we keep? It's a note about role guide; could be considered part of About the role. We'll include as prose under About the role. We also need to remove "Physical Requirements"? Might be considered part of Responsibilities? But we don't have a heading for that; we could incorporate into Responsibilities as a list? But the instruction says use headings from the list; we could still include Physical Requirements as a

      under Responsibilities? But we need to preserve all substantive info. If we don't have a heading for it, we can still include as a paragraph under Responsibilities. That's okay. Similarly Supervisory Responsibilities can be a paragraph under Responsibilities. Thus structure:

      About the role

      Intro paragraph + Why you'll love this role paragraph + bullet list of opportunities? Actually the bullet list under Why you'll love this role is a list; we should use

      • for that list. So we need to separate prose and list. Thus:

        About the role

        [intro paragraph]

        [Why you'll love this role paragraph]

        • Help shape public policy that impacts businesses across Colorado.
        • Engage with elected leaders at the local and state level, business executives, community leaders, and strategic partners.
        • Lead high-impact initiatives from concept through execution.
        • Facilitate meaningful conversations that bring diverse perspectives together.
        • Serve as a trusted advisor and mentor within the Government Affairs team.
        • Represent one of Colorado's most influential business organizations.

        [A Note About This Role paragraph]

        Then Responsibilities:

        Responsibilities

        What You'll Own: (maybe we keep heading as is? Actually we could just put the content directly.) We'll have subheadings? Not allowed? We could just list the five areas as

        • each containing the description. But we need to preserve the subheadings (Legislative Strategy & Policy Advocacy, etc.) as part of each list item. So each
        • can contain a heading? Not prohibited. We'll just put the text. Thus:

          Responsibilities

          • Legislative Strategy & Policy Advocacy: Partner with Chamber leadership to develop policy priorities at the state and local level, analyze public policy issues and advocate for solutions that strengthen Colorado's business community.
          • Coalition Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement: Build trusted relationships with business leaders, elected officials, community organizations and strategic partners while facilitating collaboration around shared policy goals.
          • Committee Leadership & Member Engagement: Lead policy committees, member forums and stakeholder discussions that educate, engage and activate Chamber members.
          • Strategic Initiatives & Organizational Impact: Drive complex projects that strengthen the Chamber's advocacy efforts, member experience and long-term organizational impact.
          • Operational Excellence & Department Partnership: Partner with the Vice President of External Affairs to strengthen departmental operations while mentoring teammates, supporting key initiatives and helping ensure the team delivers exceptional results.

          Supervisory Responsibilities: This position does not have direct supervisory responsibilities. However, it serves as a mentor, thought partner and subject matter expert within the Government Affairs team. This role provides guidance, coaching and project leadership to team members while influencing outcomes through collaboration, expertise and relationship building.

          Physical Requirements: The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job.• Prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer.• Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

          But note the bullet for Physical Requirements originally had two bullet points; we can keep as
          • but we already have a

            . Could make a list. Better:

            Responsibilities

            then
            • ... etc. Then after that we could add another
                for Supervisory Responsibilities and Physical Requirements? But those are not duties exactly; but we can still include as

                . We need to avoid duplication. Now Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: We have "What You'll Bring" bullet list. We'll put under

                Requirements

                (or Qualifications). The instruction includes Requirements, Qualifications, Skills as possible headings. We'll choose Requirements. Thus:

                Requirements

                • Experience in government affairs, public policy, advocacy, or a related field.
                • Strong understanding of the state and local legislative process and public policy development.
                • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
                • The ability to build trusted relationships with diverse stakeholders and influence through collaboration.
                • Experience facilitating committees, member engagement, coalitions, cross-functional initiatives, and grassroots or advocacy campaigns.
                • Experience with strategic communications and translating complex policy issues into persuasive communications.
                • Exceptional
