Senior Manager, Tax Technology Consulting
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting: It starts with bullet list of benefits: "Why Ryan? Hybrid Work Options Award-Winning Culture Generous Personal Time Off (PTO) Benefits 14-Weeks of 100% Paid Leave for New Parents (Adoption Included) Monthly Gym Membership Reimbursement OR Gym Equipment Reimbursement Benefits Eligibility Effective Day One 401K with Employer Match Tuition Reimbursement After One Year of Service Fertility Assistance Program Four-Week Company-Paid Sabbatical Eligibility After Five Years of Service". That's benefits.
Then description: "The Senior Manager, Tax Technology leads complex indirect tax technology implementation projects for enterprise clients, with a primary focus on ERP integration, tax engine deployment, and business process transformation. This role oversees multiple concurrent engagements from planning through production deployment, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and in accordance with Ryan’s delivery standards. The ideal candidate has substantial experience leading multiple full-cycle implementations integrating SAP ECC or SAP S/4HANA with Vertex O Series or OneSource Determination. In addition to client delivery, the Senior Manager develops consulting professionals, manages direct reports, supports business development, and contributes to the continued growth of Ryan’s Tax Technology practice. This position is eligible for remote or hybrid work arrangements, with periodic travel required to support client engagements and team collaboration."
Then "Duties and responsibilities, as they align to Ryan’s Key Results People ..." then sections: People, Client, Value, each with bullet points.
Then "Education And Experience ..." then "Computer Skills ..." then "Required Skills ..." then "Preferred Skills ..." then "Certificates And Licenses ..." then "Supervisory Responsibilities ..." then "Travel ..." then "Compensation Pay Transparency ..." then salary ranges per state.
We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education/experience?), Qualifications (maybe skills?), Skills (required/preferred?), Benefits (list), Pay (salary ranges), Schedule (maybe travel? but schedule not given; we have travel percentage; schedule not explicit; we could omit Schedule if no content). The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections to include.
We have Benefits: clear list.
Pay: salary ranges per state.
Schedule: Not given; we have travel but not schedule. So omit Schedule.
About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph describing role. That seems appropriate.
Responsibilities: The Duties and responsibilities section (People, Client, Value) includes bullet points. So we can put that under Responsibilities.
Requirements: Education and Experience, Computer Skills maybe part of qualifications? Could combine Education/Experience and Computer Skills under Requirements? But we also have Required Skills and Preferred Skills separate. Could have Qualifications section for education/experience, Skills section for required/preferred skills, Certificates maybe under Qualifications? However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine education/experience + required skills + preferred skills into a "Qualifications" section? But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use multiple of those if substantive.
We need to avoid filler. Let's decide:
- About the role: intro paragraph.
- Responsibilities: duties (People, Client, Value) bullet list.
- Requirements: Education and Experience + Computer Skills (maybe also Certificates? but certificates could be Qualifications). We'll put Education and Experience and Computer Skills under Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe Certificates And Licenses? But that's thin. Could combine with Required Skills? Actually Required Skills is more like skills. So we could have Skills section for Required Skills and Preferred Skills. Qualifications could be Certificates And Licenses (maybe also Supervisory Responsibilities? but that's not qualification). However Supervisory Responsibilities is a duty, could go under Responsibilities.
- Skills: Required Skills and Preferred Skills.
- Benefits: list.
- Pay: salary ranges.
- Schedule: omitted.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not using.

Must include required skills bullet list, preferred skills bullet list, certificates list, supervisory responsibilities, travel, etc. However we need to decide where to place each.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Already removed.
We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now, let's extract details.
Benefits list:
- Hybrid Work Options
- Award-Winning Culture
- Generous Personal Time Off (PTO) Benefits
