We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Role Overview (we can treat as About the role). Then Key Responsibilities (list). Then Experience, Education, Credentials, Technical Mastery (these could be Requirements/Qualifications/Skills). There's also Benefits info: "Benefits are available to contract/temporary professionals, including medical, vision, dental, and life and disability insurance. Hired contract/temporary professionals are also eligible to enroll in our company 401(k) plan." That's benefits. No explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should not include Pay or Schedule sections. Also we need to avoid boilerplate like Robert Half description, EEO, etc. Remove that. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the role overview paragraph, responsibilities list, experience/education/credentials/technical mastery (maybe combine into Requirements and Qualifications). Also benefits list. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to decide which headings to use: About the role (from Role Overview). Responsibilities (from Key Responsibilities). Requirements (maybe experience, education, credentials). Qualifications (maybe technical mastery). Skills (maybe not separate). Benefits (from benefits paragraph). Could combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering experience, education, credentials, technical mastery), Benefits. That's four sections. We must not include headings with filler text. Ensure each section has content. Now extract content: Role Overview paragraph: "We are seeking an experienced and proactive Tax Manager to lead our corporate tax function. In this role, you will direct our comprehensive tax compliance operations, lead the preparation of tax accounting provisions, and manage relationships with external advisory partners. The ideal candidate brings a strong foundational knowledge of corporate taxation, hands-on experience with financial reporting standards, and a proven track record of managing multifaceted tax calendars." That's prose. Key Responsibilities: list bullet points. We need to convert each line into

  • . The bullet points start after "Key Responsibilities:" and each line begins with a bold heading? Actually they are like: Compliance Strategy & Execution Direct the lifecycle of all federal, state, and local income tax filings, including annual returns, extensions, and estimated payments. Serve as the primary liaison and quality-control checkpoint for third-party tax accounting firms handling corporate filings. Streamline internal data-gathering by partnering across internal finance departments to compile financial statements, trial balances, and ledger details. Audit and cross-reference tax models, state allocation methodologies, and supporting data generated by external consultants. Govern controversy resolution, managing responses to regulatory inquiries, notices, and audit requests. Facilitate independent examinations by coordinating directly with regulatory agencies and outside auditors. Financial Reporting & Provisioning Partner with corporate accounting to construct regular income tax provisions (ASC 740), managing calculations for both consolidated structures and standalone entities. Verify financial disclosures, ensuring accuracy in effective tax rate reconciliations, deferred tax asset/liability tracking, and GAAP footnote reporting. Design and document standardized tax accounting policies and internal controls in alignment with the Controller's directives. Drive financial forecasting by modeling future cash tax liabilities and projected effective tax rates. Act as the internal subject matter expert for tax-related inquiries across the broader corporate finance team Governance & Risk Mitigation Track legislative shifts at both federal and state levels to evaluate bottom-line impacts on the organization's tax liabilities. Enforce internal control frameworks to minimize reporting risk and maintain audit readiness. Own the master tax calendar, monitoring deadlines across all jurisdictions to guarantee punctual filing and remittance. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we can either keep subheadings as part of list items? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can treat each bullet as an
    • . The subheadings like "Compliance Strategy & Execution" could be a bold heading inside
    • or we could keep as plain text. Probably better to keep as part of the
    • text. Thus each line becomes an
    • . We'll need to ensure we don't lose any content. Now Requirements: Experience: "7+ years of progressive corporate tax experience gained within a public accounting firm or an enterprise-level corporate tax department." Education: "Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related field." Credentials: "Professional certification such as a CPA, MST, or JD/LLM is required". Technical Mastery: "In-depth knowledge of consolidated corporate tax laws and a proven mastery of ASC 740 principles." We could combine these into a list under Requirements. Or we could have separate sections: Requirements (experience, education, credentials) and Qualifications (technical mastery). But to keep few sections, we can have Requirements covering all. Benefits: "Benefits are available to contract/temporary professionals, including medical, vision, dental, and life and disability insurance. Hired contract/temporary professionals are also eligible to enroll in our company 401(k) plan." That's prose; we could make a

      . Could also list as

      • but it's not a list; it's prose. We'll use

        . Now we must remove boilerplate: Robert Half description, EEO, etc. Also remove "All applicants applying for U.S. job openings must be legally authorized to work in the United States." That's maybe boilerplate but it's a requirement? It's a legal requirement; but it's generic. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's substantive? It's a standard requirement. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This line is legal requirement about work authorization; could be considered boilerplate. Safer to remove it. Also remove "Visit roberthalf.gobenefits.net for more information." That's part of benefits but it's a link; we could keep the benefit description but drop the URL? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The URL is a detail; but it's a reference for more info; maybe it's okay to keep? It's not essential to the job; but it's part of benefits description. Might be considered boilerplate? It's a link to benefits info; could be considered navigation. I'd drop it to keep clean. Also remove "© 2025 Robert Half. An Equal Opportunity Employer. M/F/Disability/Veterans." That's EEO boilerplate. Remove. Also remove "By clicking “Apply Now,” you’re agreeing to Robert Half’s Terms of Use and Privacy Notice." That's application instruction; remove. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

        About the role

        We are seeking an experienced and proactive Tax Manager to lead our corporate tax function. In this role, you will direct our comprehensive tax compliance operations, lead the preparation of tax accounting provisions, and manage relationships with external advisory partners. The ideal candidate brings a strong foundational knowledge of corporate taxation, hands-on experience with financial reporting standards, and a proven track record of managing multifaceted tax calendars.

        Responsibilities

        • Compliance Strategy & Execution Direct the lifecycle of all federal, state, and local income tax filings, including annual returns, extensions, and estimated payments. Serve as the primary liaison and quality-control checkpoint for third-party tax accounting firms handling corporate filings. Streamline internal data-gathering by partnering across internal finance departments to compile financial statements, trial balances, and ledger details. Audit and cross-reference tax models, state allocation methodologies, and supporting data generated by external consultants. Govern controversy resolution, managing responses to regulatory inquiries, notices, and audit requests. Facilitate independent examinations by coordinating directly with regulatory agencies and outside auditors.
        • Financial Reporting & Provisioning Partner with corporate accounting to construct regular income tax provisions (ASC 740), managing calculations for both consolidated structures and standalone entities. Verify financial disclosures, ensuring accuracy in effective tax rate reconciliations, deferred tax asset/liability tracking, and GAAP footnote reporting. Design and document standardized tax accounting policies and internal controls in alignment with the Controller's directives. Drive financial forecasting by modeling future cash tax liabilities and projected effective tax rates. Act as the internal subject matter expert for tax-related inquiries across the broader corporate finance team
        • Governance & Risk Mitigation Track legislative shifts at both federal and state levels to evaluate bottom-line impacts on the organization's tax liabilities. Enforce internal control frameworks to minimize reporting risk and maintain audit readiness. Own the master tax calendar, monitoring deadlines across all jurisdictions to guarantee punctual filing and remittance.
        But note we split into three list items each containing multiple sentences. That's okay. However the instruction: Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It didn't forbid multiple sentences inside
        • . So fine. Alternatively we could make each line separate
        • . But then we lose the subheadings. Could embed subheading as . Might be better to keep each line separate for clarity. Let's decide: each line as separate
        • . That will produce many
        • items, but that's okay. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. That refers to sections, not list items. So many list items fine. Thus we will produce each line as
        • . We'll need to include the subheadings as part of the
        • text, maybe bold. Let's list all responsibility lines: - Direct the lifecycle of all federal, state, and local income tax filings, including annual returns, extensions, and estimated payments. - Serve as the primary liaison and quality-control checkpoint for third-party tax accounting firms handling corporate filings. - Streamline internal data-gathering by partnering across internal finance departments to compile financial statements, trial balances, and ledger details. - Audit and cross-reference tax models, state allocation methodologies, and supporting data generated by external consultants. - Govern controversy resolution, managing responses to regulatory inquiries, notices, and audit requests. - Facilitate independent examinations by coordinating directly with regulatory agencies and outside auditors. - Partner with corporate accounting to construct regular income tax provisions (ASC 740), managing calculations for both consolidated structures and standalone entities. - Verify financial disclosures, ensuring accuracy in effective tax rate reconciliations, deferred tax asset/liability tracking, and GAAP footnote reporting. - Design and document standardized tax accounting policies and internal controls in alignment with the Controller's directives. - Drive financial forecasting by modeling future cash tax liabilities and projected effective tax rates. - Act as the internal subject matter expert for tax-related inquiries across the broader corporate finance team - Track legislative shifts at both federal and state levels to evaluate bottom-line impacts on the organization's tax liabilities. - Enforce internal control frameworks to minimize reporting risk and maintain audit readiness. - Own the master tax calendar, monitoring deadlines across all jurisdictions to guarantee punctual filing and remittance. We also have the heading lines "Compliance Strategy & Execution", "Financial Reporting & Provisioning", "Governance & Risk Mitigation". Should we keep them as separate list items? They are section headings within responsibilities. Could be included as
        • with maybe . We'll include them as list items as well. Thus the responsibilities list will have:
        • Compliance Strategy & Execution
        • Direct the lifecycle ...
        • ... etc. But that might be odd to have an empty description. Better to incorporate the heading as part of the first item: "
        • Compliance Strategy & Execution: Direct the lifecycle ..." but that would combine two sentences. However the original text had the heading on its own line then the bullet points. We could keep heading as separate
        • but with no further
