Senior Public Information Representative - Energy Department
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We should not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range, so Pay section is valid. Benefits? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned (full-time mentioned but not schedule details). We could include Schedule if posting says full-time; but it's not specific schedule like hours. Might be considered not specific enough. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It states full-time but not schedule details. I'd avoid Schedule section. Benefits not stated.
Thus sections: About the role (department description), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education, experience, licensing, Form 700), Qualifications (competencies list), Skills (maybe communication skills? but that's part of competencies). Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we need to follow headings only if content exists. We have a list of competencies under "Other Qualifications". That could be Qualifications. We also have "Communication Skills" as a competency. Could still be under Qualifications.
We could have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications. No Skills separate.
We need to ensure we don't repeat content.
Let's extract:
About the role: description of SJCE: "Our diverse and inclusive workforce... All City of San José employees work together as one team..." but that's generic city intro; maybe we keep department description: "San José Clean Energy, or SJCE, is San José’s local, not-for-profit electricity supplier operated by the City of San José’s Energy Department. Since 2019, our dedicated and motivated team has provided clean energy for residents and businesses at competitive rates, while also offering community programs, local benefits, and increased transparency and accessibility. SJCE has more than 350,000 customer accounts and has contracted more than 1 GW of power. Joining our team means that you will be making a big impact on the fight against climate change. SJCE plays an important role in meeting San José’s ambitious goal to be carbon neutral by 2030 and in implementing the City’s climate action plan, Climate Smart San José. Thanks to SJCE, San Jose has one of the cleanest energy mixes of any large city and offers a 62% renewable product and a 100% renewable product. Serving our community with respect and integrity is at the core of what we do. We center equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging in our work. The department also hosts active staff-led Culture and Racial Equity committees and has won awards for its education and outreach work with Spanish and Vietnamese-speaking communities."
We could also include the earlier generic city statement but it's somewhat boilerplate? It's about workforce and values; maybe keep as part of About the role? It's not boilerplate but it's generic city description. Might be okay.
Responsibilities: typical duties list: "Develop Marketing and Communications plans to support SJCE’s programs and customer experience, engaging full time staff and outside vendors. Media relations support including writing talking points, press releases, op-eds, etc. Present, as needed, to internal and external stakeholders. Create content for social media, web and various communication channels. Assist with communication compliance with regulatory requirements, including customer notifications. Contribute to City Council memos and presentations. Supervise and coach a team of communication professionals. Cheerleading San Jose’s commitment to environmental justice, and a healthier more sustainable world for all."
Also earlier: "This position will report to the Marketing and Communications Manager and will help lead public information aspart of the Account Services and Marketing and Communications team. The successful candidate will demonstrate excellent writing and presentation skills and have substantial experience developing and executing effective communication plans using a wide range of approaches and tools. Collaboration is key for this position; the individual in this role will work with the public information team, internal partners, and external stakeholders to accomplish marketing goals and report on results. In addition, the Senior Public Information Representative will have well-developed interpersonal skills to influence and guide a diverse team of people who may not directly report to them."
We could incorporate those as prose under Responsibilities.

Experience: Four (4) years of increasingly responsible public information, marketing, or public relations experience. Licensing Requirements: Possession of a valid driver's license is required. Form 700: This position requires a disclosure of outside investments, real property interest, income, and business positions. You must complete and file an “Assuming Office Form 700” with the City Clerk’s Office within the first 30 days of employment with the office.
We could also include "The ideal candidate will have at least 4 years of experience in public information, marketing, or public relations. Candidates with public sector, corporate, or energy industry experience are invited to apply." That's experience.
Qualifications: list of competencies: Job Expertise, Analytical Thinking, Collaboration, Fiscal Management, Flexibility, Leadership, Planning, Project Management, Vision/Strategic Thinking, Communication Skills.
We could format as
- each.
Pay: Salary range: $130,472.16 - $158,951.52 Annually, includes approx 5% ongoing non-pensionable compensation. Actual salary determined by qualifications/experience.
We should not include "This salary range(s) includes an approximate five percent (5%) ongoing non-pensionable compensation." That's part of pay.
