Also remove the long paragraphs about firm description? Might be considered "About the role"? The description includes firm overview; we can put that under About the role.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like responsibilities list, experience requirements, skills, benefits, pay range, schedule.
We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's extract content.
First, firm overview: "As CohnReznick grows, so do our career opportunities. As one of the nation’s top professional services firms, CohnReznick creates rewarding careers in advisory, assurance, and tax with team members who value innovation and collaboration in everything they do! CohnReznick helps organizations optimize performance, manage risk, and maximize value through CohnReznick LLP (assurance services) and CohnReznick Advisory LLC (advisory and tax services). Together, the firm provides leaders with deep industry knowledge and relationships, solutions to address clients’ unique business goals and risks, and insight on how emerging market forces can drive opportunity. With offices nationwide, the firm serves organizations around the world as an independent member of Nexia. We currently have an exciting career opportunity for a Tax Senior Manager to join our Commercial Real Estate team located in one of our New York Metro offices. CohnReznick is a hybrid firm and most of our professionals are located within a commutable distance to one of our offices. This position is considered hybrid which means team members are expected to be thoughtful and intentional in how they create opportunities for in-person collaboration. While the cadence of in-office presence is determined at the team level, our professionals are encouraged to be in the office/together in person on average 3 days a week."
That's about the role and schedule. We'll separate schedule later.
Next "YOUR TEAM." paragraph: "This position will support our Real Estate Industry Group and more specifically, the Commercial Real Estate team.

Aligning yourself to this industry group allows you to work with clients driving community development, addressing inequities, and propelling the industry forward with market-leading technologies and processes designed to better serve the people who live, work, and trust within their spaces."
That's about the team; could be part of About the role.
Next "WHY COHNREZNICK?" paragraph: "At CohnReznick, we’re united by a common mission to create opportunity, value, and trust for our clients, our people, and our communities. Whether it’s working alongside your peers to solve a client challenge, or volunteering together at the local food bank, there are so many ways to find your “why” at the firm. We believe it’s important to balance work with everyday life – and make time for enjoyment and fun. We invest in a robust Total Rewards package that includes everything from generous PTO, a flexible work environment, expanded parental leave, extensive learning & development, and even paid time off for employees to volunteer."
That's benefits.
Next "YOUR ROLE. Responsibilities Include But Not Limited To" then list bullet points (though not formatted as bullet). We need to extract each responsibility as list items.

We need to keep them as - .
Next "Your Experience." paragraph: "The successful candidate will have: Education: BS/BA accounting; CPA required Minimum 8+ years tax & accounting experience in public accounting Current experience with commercial real estate clients Excellent analytical, technical, and tax skills including knowledge in IRC code and regulations Exceptional client service and communication skills with a demonstrated ability to develop and maintain outstanding client relationships Strong leadership, and mentoring skills, coupled with excellent written, interpersonal, and presentation skills Computer expertise including knowledge of audit-preparation software and an understanding of the impact of technology Strong research skills Proven technical skills with MS Office applications such as Excel, Word, and Outlook; audit software, ProSystems or GoSystems, and CCH Engagament experience a plus Solid organizational skills with a demonstrated ability to multi-task"
We need to map to sections: Requirements (education, experience), Qualifications maybe overlapping, Skills (technical, etc). We'll decide: Use Requirements for education and experience; Skills for technical and soft skills; Qualifications maybe not needed separate. But we need to follow instruction: Use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include those that have content.
We have About the role (firm overview + team). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (education, experience). Qualifications maybe we could put leadership/mentoring etc? But those are skills. Could treat Qualifications as same as Requirements? Better to put Requirements for education+experience, Skills for technical and soft skills, Qualifications maybe we could put "Current experience with commercial real estate clients" etc but that's also experience. Might be redundant. However we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But instruction says use those headings if content exists. We could put Requirements for education+experience, Qualifications for leadership/mentoring etc, Skills for technical skills. That yields three sections.
Let's extract:
Requirements:
- Education: BS/BA accounting; CPA required
- Minimum 8+ years tax & accounting experience in public accounting
- Current experience with commercial real estate clients
Qualifications (maybe leadership/mentoring etc):
- Strong leadership, and mentoring skills, coupled with excellent written, interpersonal, and presentation skills
- Exceptional client service and communication skills with a demonstrated ability to develop and maintain outstanding client relationships
Skills (technical):
- Excellent analytical, technical, and tax skills including knowledge in IRC code and regulations
- Computer expertise including knowledge of audit-preparation software and an understanding of the impact of technology
- Strong research skills
- Proven technical skills with MS Office applications such as Excel, Word, and Outlook; audit software, ProSystems or GoSystems, and CCH Engagament experience a plus
- Solid organizational skills with a demonstrated ability to multi-task
But we also have "Excellent analytical, technical, and tax skills including knowledge in IRC code and regulations" maybe skill.
We'll keep as list.
Benefits: from WHY COHNREZNICK paragraph: "We invest in a robust Total Rewards package that includes everything from generous PTO, a flexible work environment, expanded parental leave, extensive learning & development, and even paid time off for employees to volunteer."
Also maybe mention "generous PTO, flexible work environment, expanded parental leave, extensive learning & development, paid time off for employees to volunteer."
Pay: "In New York City, the salary range for Tax Senior Manager is $145,000 - $245,000. Salary determination will vary based on factors such as a candidate’s geographical location, qualifications, experience, skills, and competencies. Salary is one component of the CohnReznick total rewards package, which includes a discretionary performance bonus; generous paid time off; expanded and inclusive parental benefits, and access to best-in-class learning and development platforms, to name a few."
We need to keep salary range and mention discretionary performance bonus etc. But we already have benefits; we can include pay section with salary range and note discretionary performance bonus etc.
Schedule: hybrid, 3 days a week average. Also mention "CohnReznick is a hybrid firm and most of our professionals are located within a commutable distance to one of our offices. This position is considered hybrid which means team members are expected to be thoughtful and intentional in how they create opportunities for in-person collaboration. While the cadence of in-office presence is determined at the team level, our professionals are encouraged to be in the office/together in person on average 3 days a week."
We'll put schedule section.
About the role: combine firm overview and YOUR TEAM paragraph.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we will not have heading "Tax Senior Manager". We'll just have sections.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Remove those paragraphs.
Also remove "Universal Job Standards", "To learn more about life at CohnReznick", etc.
Also remove the paragraph about "In addition, please take a moment to review our Universal Job Standards." That's boilerplate; remove.
Also remove the long description about CohnReznick LLP vs Advisory LLC etc (legal). Remove.
Also remove the equal opportunity employer statement etc.
Also remove the accommodation email etc.
Also remove the note about unsolicited resumes.
Also remove the "#GD".
