We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Must not repeat job title. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content.
From posting:
- About the role: description of firm, role, opportunity. Could be "About the role". We'll put that.
- Responsibilities: list of key responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe "What We're Looking For" includes experience, etc. Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". We'll map.
- Qualifications: maybe "What Sets You Apart"? Actually "What Sets You Apart" is more about personal attributes, could be Skills.
- Benefits: Compensation & Ownership Opportunity includes Performance Bonus, ESOP, Comprehensive Benefits. So Benefits section.
- Pay: Not explicitly stated numeric salary, but they mention Performance Bonus, ESOP, etc. No explicit pay range. The rule: do NOT create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does not state a salary figure, just mentions bonus and ownership. So we should not create Pay section.
- Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit.
- Skills: Could be from "What Sets You Apart" and "What We're Looking For". We'll create Skills section.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not use filler like "commensurate with experience". We'll avoid.

We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading.
We need to include only sections with real content.
Let's extract content.
About the role: The first paragraph: "At McFarland Johnson (MJ), we're more than infrastructure consultants - we are a 100% employee-owned firm with 80 years of commitment to delivering innovative planning, engineering design, environmental services, technology, and construction solutions that make a lasting impact in the communities we serve. We're looking for an experienced Civil Engineer Aviation Project Manager to join our growing Aviation and Infrastructure team throughout New England. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys leading diverse projects, developing trusted client relationships, and helping our technical team succeed. The ideal candidate has at least 15 years of progressive engineering and project management experience, preferably supporting aviation projects in New England. Candidates must be based in New England or willing to relocate to the region."
We can keep that as prose under About the role.
Responsibilities: The bullet list under "Key Responsibilities". We'll convert to
- .
Responsibilities list:
- Lead and deliver complex, multidisciplinary projects across aviation, civil/site, planning, and/or environmental.
- Serve as a primary client manager, developing a thorough understanding of client needs, priorities, and long-term goals
- Manage project scope, schedule, and budget while ensuring technical excellence and quality delivery
- Guide and mentor engineers and technical staff across teams
- Support workload planning, staff development, and the continued growth of the New England team
- Contribute to business development, including proposals and client engagement
- Represent MJ at client meetings, industry events, and professional organizations
Requirements: The "What We're Looking For" list.
- 15+ years of progressive experience in project management (aviation, transportation, civil/site, or similar)
- Proven ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and deliver complex projects
- Experience working on airport projects or terminal facilities is a plus
- Strong leadership, communication, organization, and relationship management
- Experience mentoring and developing engineers and technical staff
- Interest in client relationship management and business development
- Familiarity with the New England market, including funding sources
- Professional Engineer (PE) license in NH, MA, ME, CT, RI, or VT
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering (ABET-accredited) or related field
Qualifications: Could be same as Requirements? But we have separate sections: Requirements and Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what goes where. Usually Requirements are mandatory, Qualifications are preferred. In posting, "What We're Looking For" includes both required and preferred (some are plus). We could split: Requirements: mandatory items (15+ years experience, PE license, Bachelor's degree). Qualifications: preferred items (experience on airport projects, mentoring, familiarity with New England market, etc.). But we need to preserve all info; we can just put all under Requirements and leave Qualifications empty? But we must not create a section with filler. So we should only create Qualifications if there is real specific content. We could treat "What Sets You Apart" as Qualifications or Skills. Let's think.
"What Sets You Apart" list:
- You build trusted client relationships and understand how to translate their needs into successful project outcomes
- You provide clear direction while giving team members opportunities to grow
- You bring both technical expertise and business acumen
- You're passionate about mentoring and building high-performing teams
These are more like personal attributes/skills. Could go under Skills.
"Why This Role is Different" section includes bullet points about client leadership, diverse project portfolio, full project lifecycle, people-centric culture, employee ownership, support system. That could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "Why This Role". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could incorporate those points into About the role or Skills. But we must preserve all substantive information; we can add them to About the role as additional prose.
Compensation & Ownership Opportunity: includes Performance Bonus, ESOP, Comprehensive Benefits. That's Benefits section.
We also have "Why This Role" bullet points; we could incorporate into About the role or maybe a separate section like "Why This Role" but not allowed. So we'll merge into About the role.
Now we need to avoid repeating content. Let's craft About the role paragraph that includes firm description, role, opportunity, and also the "Why This Role is Different" points.
We must not invent or summarize away detail; we can rephrase but must keep all info. It's okay to combine.
Let's list all substantive info from posting:
- Firm: McFarland Johnson (MJ), 100% employee-owned, 80 years commitment, delivering innovative planning, engineering design, environmental services, technology, construction solutions, lasting impact in communities.
- Role: Experienced Civil Engineer Aviation Project Manager to join growing Aviation and Infrastructure team throughout New England.
- Opportunity: leading diverse projects, developing trusted client relationships, helping technical team succeed.
- Ideal candidate: at least 15 years progressive engineering and project management experience, preferably supporting aviation projects in New England. Candidates must be based in New England or willing to relocate.
- Compensation & Ownership: Performance Bonus: Annual incentive plan tied to individual performance and company profitability. Employee Ownership (ESOP): As a 100% employee-owned firm, you'll receive company stock at no cost, allowing you to directly share in the firm's growth and profitability. Comprehensive Benefits: Medical (self-insured plan), 401(k) with match, HSA, generous PTO, flexible work options.
- Why This Role is Different bullet points:
- Client Leadership: Serve as primary client contact and trusted advisor while strengthening long term relationships with airports throughout New England.
- Diverse Project Portfolio: Aviation (airside & landside), airport terminals and hangars, civil/site development, aviation planning, and environmental coordination a plus.
- Full Project Lifecycle: Lead projects from initial planning and client engagement through permitting and design, to construction and close-out, providing continuity for both clients and project teams.
- People-Centric, High-Performance Culture: Collaborative, growth-focused, and team-oriented approach to providing quality client service.
- Employee Ownership: Build your career and contribute to the long-term success of where all employees share in ownership as a 100% ESOP.
- Support System: Join one of the largest and most successful aviation infrastructure teams in New England. Collaborate daily with our New England-based Aviation Project Managers. Rely on a significant number of existing aviation engineers of all experience levels in New England to support your projects.
- Key Responsibilities (list above).
- What We're Looking For (list above).
- What Sets You Apart (list above).
- Why This Role (the paragraph after "What Sets You Apart"): "This role offers the opportunity to lead meaningful projects, manage important client relationships, have all-expenses-paid travel to conferences, and help develop the next generation of engineers within a successful, growing 100% employee-owned firm. It's an excellent fit for an experienced PM who wants greater influence over client service, project delivery, team development, and a seat at the table; it could be a great place to build your career and long-term financial future."
- Join Us and Make a Difference: "Join a team where your work has purpose, your ideas are valued, and your growth is personal. Apply today and become a part of a company where you can #ownyourfuture." This includes application instruction; we must remove application instructions. So we should drop that last paragraph (Join Us and Make a Difference) as it's application instruction. Also remove any boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc none present.
Thus we need to exclude the final paragraph that encourages applying.
Now we need to structure HTML.
We'll have:
About the role
... combined prose ...
Responsibilities

Requirements

Qualifications
Maybe we can put "What Sets You Apart" as Qualifications? But Qualifications usually are credentials/experience. "What Sets You Apart" are personal traits/skills. Could be Skills.
Better: Use Skills for "What Sets You Apart". Qualifications could be the "What We're Looking For" items that are preferred/experience? But we already put Requirements as mandatory. However we have no clear split. To avoid creating empty sections, we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called Requirements, and then have Skills for personal attributes. But the instruction says we can use those headings; we don't have to use all. So we can have only About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits. That's acceptable.
Thus:
- Requirements: include the "What We're Looking For" list (all items). That covers experience, PE license, degree, etc.
- Skills: include "What Sets You Apart" list.
- Benefits: include Compensation & Ownership Opportunity details.
We also need to incorporate the "Why This Role is Different" bullet points somewhere. Could be part of About the role as additional prose.
