Sr. Counsel (remote)
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Keep substantive info.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
Content:
- Intro paragraph: "Preparedness today, safer tomorrow. Emergent is a leading public health company..." That's about the company. 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 can map.
Job Summary: "Emergent is looking for a Senior Counsel - Commercial..." That's about the role. So we can put that under About the role
with paragraphs.
Essential Functions: list of duties. That's Responsibilities. Use - .
Minimum Education, Experience, Skills: that's Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We need to split maybe into Requirements (education, experience) and Skills. But we can combine into one section if we want fewer sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, experience, skills), Pay and Benefits (if present). Also maybe Qualifications separate? But we can combine.
Pay: there is "U.S. Base Pay Ranges and Benefits Information" with salary range and benefits link. So we need Pay and Benefits sections. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content. Pay: we have salary range. Benefits: we have mention of comprehensive benefits package and link. So we can have Pay and Benefits sections.
Schedule: not mentioned, so omit.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation statements, etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from Essential Functions list, the minimum education/experience/skills list, and pay/benefits info.
We need to format as HTML fragment only, no or . Use
for headings,
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Senior Counsel - Commercial.
We need to fold minor metadata like Job ID etc into short p or drop; there is none.
We need to remove duplicated lines. The Essential Functions list includes many sentences; we need to keep them as list items.
We need to be careful to not include the "Reasonable accommodation will be made..." lines (they are boilerplate). Also remove the statements about "The above statements are intended to describe the nature of work..." etc. Also remove the EEO statement at end.
Also remove the "If you are selected for an interview..." etc.
Also remove the "There are physical/mental demands..." etc.
Also remove the "Emergent BioSolutions is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer..." etc.
Also remove the "Information submitted will be used..." etc.
Also remove the "Emergent BioSolutions does not accept non-solicited resumes..." etc.
Now construct sections.
About the role: combine intro paragraph and Job Summary.
