We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions. We need to preserve all substantive information. We need to parse the posting. First part: "About Northern Trust" description: that's company overview. Could be placed under "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. But we have "About Northern Trust" which is company description. Could be placed under "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings. "About Northern Trust" could be under "About the role"? Not exactly, but we could treat it as "About the role" includes company overview. Or we could create a section "About the role" with the description of the role and maybe company overview. The instruction says "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those as examples. Probably we should stick to those headings only if content exists. So we need to decide which sections have content. Let's extract: - About the role: description of role: "SENIOR PORTFOLIO ADVISOR, WEALTH MANAGEMENT OH: R161702 Position manages a set of fee-producing investment accounts, generally for large and sensitive personal trust relationships and individual investors with complex investment needs requiring a high level of technical expertise and versatility with a broad range of investment solutions. Typically manages the largest and most complex relationships within their local market. This role requires mastery and continuous growth in the utilization and appropriate execution of our Goals Driven client experience, emerging technology capabilities, investment methodologies, and our full suite of investment solutions delivered in coordination and in collaboration with the broader client service team. The Senior Portfolio Advisor II substantially contributes to the growth of the market by generating and supporting new business activities. Effectively partners with sales and relationship management team to win new business, capture share of wallet, generate referrals, and develop relationships with key centers of influence." That's role description. - Responsibilities: list of duties: "Duties Include Manages investment activities for a reduced set of major fee revenue producing accounts (target 80% capacity), representing large and sensitive high net worth personal trusts and individual investment portfolios typically larger in size and complexity within their market. Contributes to the growth of the market by generating new business both individually and in conjunction with the sales and relationship management team. Is directly responsible for hitting a specific sales target. Develops, recommends, and directs the execution of programs designed to achieve investment objectives for specific individual clients. Analyzes and plans the overall investment strategy with continuous revision as goals and objectives change and in the context of client needs working closely and proactively with the broader client service team to identify and execute on areas of opportunity. Maintains an integral and influential presence within the local client facing team, clients, co-trustees, consultants, the bank's legal area and outside attorneys to ensure communication of client requirements and coordinate portfolio activity.

Provides continuous feedback on areas for improvement to leadership on national initiatives, changes, and expectations. Adheres to National Investment Guidelines, feedback from the REV peer review process, and observes sound risk management practices. Serves on standing investment services committees and participates in special projects as appropriate." That's a list of duties; we can format as
  • each bullet. - Requirements: maybe "The successful candidate will benefit from having the following competencies:" then list: "12+ years of investment management experience, which may include research, in which consistent long term investment performance has met objectives. Decision making, sales, and negotiating skills are required to contribute to the market’s revenue generation and guide sensitive or difficult situations through to agreement. Experience as a Senior Portfolio Advisor in Wealth Management for UHNW clients. Technical expertise with a broad range of investment solutions. Completion of any of the following is highly preferred: MBA and/or CFA, CFP, CIMA, CPWA and CAIA. May lead functional teams or projects with moderate resource requirements, risk, and/or complexity. Knowledge of investment and portfolio management theory, accounting and financial principles, associated investment strategies and instruments, and characteristics of various marketplaces, usually acquired through formal education and work experience, is required to manage portfolios. Requires specialized depth and/or breadth of expertise in own job discipline or field. Interprets internal/external business challenges and recommends best practices to improve products, processes or services." That could be Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications. We need to decide where to put which. Usually Requirements are mandatory, Qualifications are preferred. The text includes both required and preferred. We could split: Requirements: mandatory items; Qualifications: preferred items (MBA/CFA etc). But we can also combine into one section if content is thin. However we have enough for both. Let's extract mandatory requirements: - 12+ years of investment management experience (may include research) with consistent long term investment performance meeting objectives. - Decision making, sales, and negotiating skills required. - Experience as a Senior Portfolio Advisor in Wealth Management for UHNW clients. - Technical expertise with a broad range of investment solutions. - Knowledge of investment and portfolio management theory, accounting and financial principles, associated investment strategies and instruments, and characteristics of various marketplaces (acquired via formal education and work experience) required to manage portfolios. - Requires specialized depth and/or breadth of expertise in own job discipline or field. - Interprets internal/external business challenges and recommends best practices to improve products, processes or services. Preferred qualifications: - Completion of any of the following is highly preferred: MBA and/or CFA, CFP, CIMA, CPWA and CAIA. - May lead functional teams or projects with moderate resource requirements, risk, and/or complexity. We could put Requirements section with mandatory items, Qualifications section with preferred. Skills: maybe we could extract skills like decision making, sales, negotiating, technical expertise, etc. But we already have those in requirements. Could create Skills section summarizing technical and soft skills. However instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Might be better to combine Skills into Requirements or Qualifications. But we have separate headings allowed; we could create Skills if we have distinct content. The posting mentions "Technical expertise with a broad range of investment solutions." That's a skill. Also "Decision making, sales, and negotiating skills". Also "Knowledge of investment and portfolio management theory...". Could be skills. But we already have them in Requirements. To avoid duplication, we could put them under Skills and keep Requirements more about experience years etc. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can duplicate? It says do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is not prohibited but might be redundant. Better to avoid duplication. So we need to allocate each piece to one section. Let's design: - About the role: company overview + role description (maybe combine). We'll include the Northern Trust description and the role summary. - Responsibilities: list of duties (the Duties Include paragraph broken into bullet points). - Requirements: mandatory experience/skills: 12+ years investment management experience, decision making/sales/negotiating skills, experience as Senior Portfolio Advisor for UHNW, technical expertise with broad range investment solutions, knowledge of investment/portfolio management theory etc, specialized depth/breadth expertise, interprets challenges and recommends best practices. - Qualifications: preferred: MBA/CFA etc, ability to lead functional teams moderate resource requirements. - Benefits: The posting mentions benefits: "Northern Trust provides a comprehensive benefits package including retirement benefits (401k and pension), health and welfare benefits (medical, dental, vision, spending accounts and disability), paid time off, parental and caregiver leave, life & accident insurance, and other voluntary and well-being benefits. Northern Trust also provides a discretionary bonus program that may include an equity component." - Pay: Salary Range $114,500 - 194,700 USD. Also note "Salary range is a good faith estimate of base pay." - Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section. - Skills: Not separate; we already covered skills in Requirements/Qualifications. Could we create Skills section with "Decision making, sales, negotiating; technical expertise; knowledge of investment theory; ability to lead teams"? But that duplicates. Perhaps better to not create Skills section to avoid thin sections. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit Skills if its content is thin or covered elsewhere. We'll omit Skills. - Also we need to include Work Authorization? That's a requirement: "Work Authorization Applicants must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for employment-based visa sponsorship now or in the future. Northern Trust will not sponsor applicants for U.S. work visa status for this opportunity (no sponsorship is available for H-1B, L-1, TN, O-1, E-3, H-1B1, F-1, J-1, OPT, CPT or any other employment-based visa)." This is a requirement (legal). Should we include under Requirements? Yes, we can add a bullet about work authorization. - Also "Working with Us" description about culture, flexible collaborative work culture, movement encouraged, senior leaders accessible, inclusive workplace, philanthropy, etc. That's more about company culture; could be included under About the role or maybe a separate section but not in list. Could be part of About the role (company overview). We'll incorporate into About the role. - "Reasonable Accommodation" also could be included under Benefits? Actually it's about accommodation; could be under Benefits or a separate section but not in list. Might be considered part of Benefits? Not exactly. Could be under About the role as well. But we might omit to keep sections few. However it's substantive info about accommodation. Could be placed under Benefits? Not really. Could be under Requirements? No. Could be under a separate section like "Additional Information" but not allowed headings? The instruction only gave examples but didn't forbid other headings. However to be safe, we could include it under Benefits? Not appropriate. Maybe we can include under "About the role" as part of company policies. Or we could create a section "Additional Information" but that's not in the list; risk of being considered filler. Better to incorporate into About the role or Benefits? I'd put it under Benefits as it's a benefit/policy. But it's not a benefit like health etc. Could be under "About the role" as part of company culture. I'll add a bullet under About the role: "Northern Trust is committed to working with and providing adjustments to individuals with health conditions and disabilities; reasonable accommodation requests can be directed to HR Service Center." Now we need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes "Work Authorization" which we kept. It also includes "Working with Us" and "Reasonable Accommodation". We'll incorporate. Now produce HTML. Structure:
