Staff Associate

We need to output only HTML fragment with sections for headings where content exists. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. From posting: Duties (Primary Responsibilities) -> Responsibilities section. Qualifications: Required and Preferred -> Qualifications section (maybe also Requirements? The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We can combine required/preferred under Qualifications. Could also have Requirements for required qualifications and Skills for skills? But better to follow: Use headings only when posting has real specific content. We have qualifications content. Could split into Requirements (required) and Skills (preferred? but they'd be skills). However we have both required and preferred qualifications. Could make a Qualifications section containing both required and preferred. Or we could have Requirements for required, Skills for preferred skills. But the instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can choose any of those. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have Responsibilities (duties). We have Qualifications (required and preferred). We have Benefits: "This position offers full NYS benefits, which are among the most comprehensive in the nation." That's a benefit statement. So we can include Benefits section. We have no explicit Pay or Schedule info. So omit those. We have maybe About the role? Could include a brief summary from posting? The posting includes department, title, etc. Could put that under About the role. But we must not repeat job title as heading. About the role could be a short paragraph summarizing role. The posting includes details like "Serve as the department's lead administrator..." which is duties. So About the role could be a brief overview: maybe combine department and title. But we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can include a paragraph that is directly from posting: maybe the first few sentences: "Department: Athletics, Wellness & Recreation Budget Title: Staff Associate Local Title: Associate Director of Athletics, Wellness, & Recreation - Operations". That's metadata but not boilerplate. Could be placed in About the role. However the instruction says do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include that metadata in a paragraph under About the role. Thus sections: About the role (paragraph with department, title, posting date maybe). Responsibilities (ul of duties). Qualifications (ul of required and preferred maybe separate subheadings? But we can just list all qualifications as li). Benefits (p about NYS benefits). Ensure we preserve all substantive information. We must not include application instructions, contact info, deadline, etc. Also remove boilerplate like EEO etc. So we strip contact info, application link, deadline, etc. We need to preserve all substantive information: duties list, qualifications list, benefits statement, department info, maybe classification SL-4? That's metadata but could be included in About the role. Also posting date? Could be included. Let's extract substantive info: - Department: Athletics, Wellness & Recreation - Budget Title: Staff Associate - Local Title: Associate Director of Athletics, Wellness, & Recreation - Operations - Posting Date: August 19, 2026 - Classification: SL-4 - Duties (Primary Responsibilities): - Serve as the department's lead administrator for operational needs and event management. - Oversee all aspects of game day and event operations for home athletic contests and special events. - Supervise and coordinate Event Managers and related operational staff. - Manage and maintain the department's master events calendar, ensuring effective scheduling and coordination of facilities and resources. - Department's point person regards game contacts (maybe typo: "Department's point person regards game contacts" unclear but keep as is) - Serve as the department's inventory manager, overseeing equipment tracking, procurement, storage, and replacement planning. - Provide oversight of athletic facilities, including maintenance coordination, operational readiness, and facility improvement initiatives. - Assist with the scheduling and administration of facility rentals and external events. - Serve as the sport supervisor for assigned varsity programs, providing administrative support and oversight. - Act as Tournament Director for conference and NCAA postseason events hosted on campus. - Participate as a member of the department's Senior Staff, contributing to strategic planning, policy development, budget discussions, and departmental decision-making. - Perform other duties as assigned in support of the department's goals and objectives. - Qualifications Required: - Bachelor's degree from an accredited institution. - Minimum of four (4) years of progressively responsible experience in intercollegiate athletics administration, athletic operations, event management, facilities management, or a related field. - Demonstrated experience coordinating and managing athletic events, game operations, tournaments, or comparable large-scale events. - Experience supervising professional staff, student employees, or event personnel. - Strong organizational, problem-solving, and project management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously. - Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills. - Experience working collaboratively with diverse constituencies, including coaches, students, faculty, staff, campus partners, and external stakeholders. - Knowledge of NCAA Division III rules and regulations. - Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and event scheduling/calendar management systems. - Qualifications Preferred: - Master's degree in Sports Management, Higher Education Administration, Business Administration, Recreation Management, or a related field. - Experience in NCAA Division III athletics. - Experience serving as a sport supervisor. - Experience with athletic facility management and oversight of capital improvement projects. - Experience coordinating conference championships and/or NCAA postseason events. - Background in budget management, inventory control, procurement, and contract administration. - Experience managing facility rentals and external event agreements. - Familiarity with athletic scheduling software, event management systems, and facility reservation platforms. - Demonstrated commitment to student-athlete development, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. - Benefits: This position offers full NYS benefits, which are among the most comprehensive in the nation. - Additional info about college: Recognized regionally for the strength of its academic programs, New Paltz is a highly-selective public college with about 8000 students. It is located on a beautiful campus 75 miles north of New York City in a picturesque area at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains with easy access to the City and nearby cultural and recreational amenities. New Paltz recognizes the unique skills, perspective, talents and passion that each employee contributes to its learning community. To work here is to accept an invitation to participate in the growth and development of all campus members--students, faculty and staff. The College's commitment to inclusive excellence is an important part of our mission of public education and our culture. New Paltz continues to work on building a community that supports freedom, mutual respect, and civility. We seek others who support these values of diversity and inclusiveness and candidates of all diverse backgrounds who wish to participate in our cultural aspirations are welcome and encouraged to apply. The State University of New York at New Paltz is an AA/EOE/ADA employer. Federal law and regulations require notice to all prospective employees regarding crimes that have occurred on campus in the current three year period. Please refer to the University Police Web site for the complete Annual Security Report (“Clery Report”) at https://newpaltz.edu/police/clery-compliance/annual-security-and-fire-safety-reports/ Web Site: https://jobs.newpaltz.edu/postings/2964 Application for Employment We need to remove boilerplate: EEO/ADA statement, Clery report link, application instructions, web site link maybe? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove the AA/EOE/ADA employer line and the Clery report notice and link. Also remove the web site link and application for employment line. Also remove the "Contact Information:" and "Electronic submissions required..." etc. Also remove "Deadline: Applications will be accepted until the position is filled." Also remove "Posting Date:" maybe we keep as part of About the role? It's metadata but not boilerplate; we can keep. We must preserve all substantive information: the description of college, location, etc. That's substantive. Thus About the role paragraph could include: Department, Budget Title, Local Title, Classification, Posting Date, and maybe a brief description of the college? But the college description is separate; maybe we could put that under About the role as well, but it's more about the institution. Could be its own section? Not in list. Could put under About the role as well. But we must not create sections with filler. So we can have About the role containing a paragraph that combines the department info and the college description. That's substantive. Responsibilities: ul list of duties. Qualifications: ul list of required and preferred? Could separate into Required and Preferred subheadings but those are not in allowed headings list. Could just list all qualifications as li; but we might lose distinction. However we can still include both required and preferred as li; it's still substantive. The instruction didn't forbid mixing. It's okay. Benefits: p statement. We must not include Pay or Schedule. Now produce HTML fragment:
