We need to separate Requirements/Qualifications/Skills maybe.
We have Pay And Benefits: pay range $58.00 - $87.00/hr (note earlier said target $65–$85/hour; but we must preserve all substantive info; we have both statements: earlier "Offering a target pay rate of $65–$85/hour" and later "Pay And Benefits The pay range for this position is $58.00 - $87.00/hr." We need to preserve both? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include both statements? Might be redundant but both are present. We could combine? But that would be summarizing. Better to include both as separate statements maybe in a
. However we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". These are specific numbers, so we keep.
Benefits: contract benefits including holiday pay and PTO accrual (from first paragraph). Then later "If eligible, the benefits available for this temporary role may include the following: Medical, dental & vision Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital 401(k) Retirement Plan – Pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions available Life Insurance (Voluntary Life & AD&D for the employee and dependents) Short and long-term disability Health Spending Account (HSA) Transportation benefits Employee Assistance Program Time Off/Leave (PTO, Vacation or Sick Leave)". So we have benefits list.
Schedule: "This is a fully onsite position in Kansas City, MO." That's location, not schedule. No explicit schedule like full-time, part-time, hours. There's "contract engagement of at least six months". That's duration, not schedule. There's no explicit schedule like "Monday-Friday, 9-5". So we should not create a Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does not state schedule, so we omit Schedule section.
We need sections: About the role (maybe a summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (maybe minimum qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe specific skills like Oracle, Power BI, leadership), Benefits, Pay.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use
for section headings.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- About the role: could be the introductory paragraph(s) describing the role, contract length, potential extension, high-impact, etc.
- Responsibilities: the job duties list.
- Requirements: minimum qualifications (Bachelor's, 8+ years, etc.) maybe also required skills.
- Qualifications: preferred qualifications (11+ years preferred, CPA preferred, public accounting experience, supervisory experience, Oracle/Power BI preferred). Could combine with Requirements but we can separate.
- Skills: maybe specific skills like financial modeling, TBM, chargebacks, communication, leadership, project management, Oracle, Power BI.
- Benefits: list.
- Pay: pay range statements.
We must avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
Let's craft.
First, About the role: combine the first paragraph and maybe the high-impact description.
Paragraph: "We’re partnering with a well-known organization in the Kansas City area to identify an Technology Finance Manager for a contract engagement of at least six months, with strong potential for extension or conversion to a permanent role. Offering a target pay rate of $65–$85/hour, along with contract benefits including holiday pay and PTO accrual, this is a high-impact opportunity within a multi-billion-dollar enterprise for someone looking to lead and influence financial strategy at the intersection of finance and technology."
We could also include the description of role: "In this role, you’ll serve as a key member of the IT leadership team, overseeing financial planning, forecasting, and cost transparency for a technology portfolio totaling several hundred million dollars annually.

That seems appropriate for About the role.
