Senior Tax Accountant (High Net Worth)
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like EEO, accommodation instructions, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Learn More: Click below..." etc. Also remove "The Story of Fiduciary Trust International #Hybrid Experience ..."? That seems like fluff but maybe part of About the role? Actually the posting includes a description of the firm at top. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have:
- Intro about Fiduciary Trust International: description of firm. Could go under "About the role" (or maybe "About the company"). We'll put under About the role.
- Then "Senior Tax Accountant Fiduciary Trust International is hiring a Senior Tax Accountant for its Radnor, PA office (Greater Philadelphia Area). This senior-level role will prepare and review complex tax returns, coordinate tax compliance for high-net-worth clients and related entities, and serve as a client-facing resource while partnering with Wealth Advisors, Trust Officers, Operations, and other internal teams to deliver coordinated client service. The position requires strong federal, state, local, and fiduciary tax knowledge; sound judgment; excellent analytical skills; and the ability to manage competing deadlines in a high-touch wealth management environment."
That could be part of About the role or Responsibilities. But we have a separate "How You Will Add Value" section listing duties. That is clearly Responsibilities.
Then "What Will Help You Be Successful" includes education, experience, qualifications, skills. That maps to Requirements/Qualifications/Skills.
Then benefits and pay: "Franklin Templeton offers employees a competitive and valuable range of total rewards—monetary and non-monetary — designed to support their well-being and recognize their time, talents, and results. Along with base compensation, employees are eligible for an annual discretionary bonus, a 401(k) plan with a generous match, and recognition rewards. We also offer a comprehensive benefits package, which includes a range of competitive healthcare options, insurance, and disability benefits, employee stock investment program, learning resources, career development programs, reimbursement for certain education expenses, paid time off (vacation / holidays / sick / leave / parental & caregiving leave / bereavement / volunteering / floating holidays) and a motivational wellbeing program. We expect the annual salary for this position to range between $145,000 - $185,000, depending on location and level of relevant experience, plus discretionary bonus."
Thus we have Benefits and Pay sections.
Schedule: "Ability to work in our Radnor, PA office three days per week." That's schedule info (hybrid). So we can include Schedule section.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation instructions, etc. Also remove "Learn More: Click below to learn more about us - Fiduciary Trust InternationalThe Story of Fiduciary Trust International #Hybrid Experience ..." and all that fluff. Also remove "Most benefits vary by location. Ask your recruiter about benefits in your country." That's part of benefits but maybe we keep? It's generic but still substantive? It's about benefits varying by location. Might be okay to keep but it's somewhat generic. However we should keep benefits details; the line "Most benefits vary by location. Ask your recruiter about benefits in your country." is not specific benefit but a note. Could be omitted as boilerplate? It's not exactly boilerplate but it's a generic statement. Safer to omit.
Also remove "Franklin Templeton is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:

We must ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. Also we removed duplicated lines? We kept both tax research bullets; they are not exact duplicates. Good.
