SVP, Enterprise Risk Management Officer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Title (but we must not repeat job title as heading). There's a description: "Avidbank is a $2.6 billion commercial bank..." that's about the company; could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is a heading we can use for introductory paragraph(s). The posting includes "The Role" paragraph, "Why This Role Matters", "Key Responsibilities", "Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications", "Leadership Competencies", "Benefits". Also includes Pay range: "$180,000 - $240,000". Also location: San Jose, California, Hybrid. Work location type: Hybrid. So we have Pay and maybe Schedule? No schedule info given. So we should not create Schedule section. Benefits section we have details. Also we might include "About the role" covering the introductory paragraphs about the bank and the role. Could also include "Why This Role Matters" as part of About? But we need headings only for sections with real content. We could have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities), Qualifications (Qualifications + Preferred Qualifications + Leadership Competencies maybe combined?), Benefits, Pay. Could also have "Requirements" but we have Qualifications. We'll follow typical headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Possibly also "Leadership Competencies" could be part of Qualifications or separate Skills? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map content accordingly. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes EEO statement at end; we must remove that. Also remove "This position description is not intended to cover..." maybe that's boilerplate but it's substantive? It's a disclaimer; maybe we can keep? It's not essential but it's part of description. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The disclaimer about duties may be considered legal boilerplate; but it's not EEO. Might be okay to keep? Safer to remove? It's not explicitly listed as boilerplate to remove, but it's a generic disclaimer. I'd keep it as part of responsibilities maybe? It's not a duty. Might be considered legal boilerplate. I'd remove it to be safe. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content: About the bank and role: "Avidbank is a $2.6 billion commercial bank based in Silicon Valley serving the San Francisco Bay area and beyond. We are a highly responsive business bank, providing tailored financial solutions. We are advocates for our clients and specialize in providing innovative banking products and supportive services that exceed our clients’ expectations. Founded in 2003, we specialize in commercial & industrial lending, technology and asset-based lending, specialty finance, real estate construction, and commercial real estate lending. We have one branch in San Jose along with loan production offices in Redwood City and San Francisco." Then role description: "Title of position: SVP, Enterprise Risk Management Officer Position type: Full-time Pay range: $180,000 - $240,000 Division: Risk and Compliance Work Location Type: Hybrid Location: San Jose, California The Role Avidbank is seeking a seasoned, strategic risk leader to serve as Senior Vice President, Enterprise Risk Management Officer. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, this role leads the continued development and execution of the Bank’s enterprise risk management program and provides independent, forward-looking oversight of the Bank’s aggregate risk profile.

Why This Role Matters paragraph. Key Responsibilities list (multiple bullet points). We'll need to convert each to

. Qualifications: list of bullet points (Bachelor’s degree..., Progressive leadership experience..., Strong knowledge..., Experience working..., Demonstrated ability..., Strong leadership...). Then Preferred Qualifications list (Advanced degree..., Experience with FDICIA..., Experience designing..., Experience supporting...). Then Leadership Competencies list (Strategic..., Credible..., Collaborative..., Process-oriented..., People leader...). We could combine Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Leadership Competencies under a single "Qualifications" section, or separate into "Qualifications" and "Skills". The instruction says we can use Skills heading. But we have leadership competencies which are skills. Could put them under Skills. However we need to preserve all info; we can have Qualifications (education/experience) and Skills (leadership competencies). Preferred qualifications could be part of Qualifications as well. Let's decide: Use Qualifications for education/experience (including preferred). Use Skills for leadership competencies. That seems reasonable. Benefits: paragraph: "Avidbank offers full-time employees’ competitive compensation, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, long term disability insurance, 401k with matching, paid holidays and a competitive paid time off policy." plus some extra sentences about wage range etc. Those are about compensation; we already have Pay range. The benefits paragraph includes compensation mention but we can keep as is. Pay: we have Pay range: $180,000 - $240,000. Also note about wage range etc. We'll include that. Schedule: none.
