Transaction Advisory Services Manager
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Let's extract sections:
- Intro: "Count on us..." etc. That's about culture, we-care. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have:
- "Our management consulting team focuses on our clients’ critical business needs..." description of team and TAS. That's about the role.
- "As a manager, you will focus on buy-side and sell-side due diligence engagements, including quality of earnings analysis, working capital assessments, and review of accounting policies to evaluate performance sustainability and identify risks."
- "Responsibilities include researching industry and target data, building financial models, analyzing financial statements under GAAP, calculating adjustments, preparing reports, presenting findings, participating in client meetings, supervision, and assisting with project scoping."
- Then "Your role. Your Work Will Include, But Not Be Limited To" list of duties.
- Then "The Qualifications." bullet list: Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting or Finance, Preferred Certifications: CPA, 4-6 years of experience..., Consistent travel with approximately 20% overnight, This is an exempt position, so you may have to work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week.
- Then "What makes us different?" etc. That's about culture, maybe "About the role" or "About the company". Could be considered "About the role" but we already have that.
- Then "Plante Moran enjoys a “Workplace for Your Day” model..." about flexibility, schedule.
- Then diversity statements etc.
- Then "We are pleased to offer eligible staff a robust benefits package." details benefits.
- Then compensation range: $123,000.00-$185,000.00 for CO, IL, OH, MA.
- Also mention "Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance..." etc.
- Also mention "A discretionary bonus plan is available for eligible staff."
- Also mention "A pension plan is also available for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff."
- Also mention "Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time."
- Also mention "Plante Moran is an Equal Opportunity Employer." etc - we need to remove EEO boilerplate.
- Also mention "Plante Moran maintains a drug-free workplace." - maybe remove as boilerplate? It's legal; we should remove.
- Also mention "Interested applicants must submit their resume..." - application instructions, remove.
- Also mention "Due to the high volume..." remove.
- Also mention "Candidates must be legally authorized..." remove.
- Also mention "Unsolicited resumes..." remove.
- Also mention "The specific statements above are not intended to be all-inclusive." remove.
- Also mention "Under Colorado’s Job Application Fairness Act..." remove? It's legal; we should remove.
- Also mention "This application window is a good-faith estimate..." remove.
Thus we keep substantive content: culture/intro, role description, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, pay, schedule (maybe from Workplace for Your Day model). Also maybe "Skills" not explicitly listed; we could omit if no specific skills.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have content.
Let's decide sections:
- About the role (or About the company). We'll use "About the role". Content: introductory paragraphs about culture, we-care, management consulting team focus, TAS description, what makes us different (culture, diversity, workplace model). Could be multiple paragraphs.
- Responsibilities: list of duties from "Responsibilities include..." and also the "Your role. Your Work Will Include, But Not Be Limited To" list.
- Qualifications: bullet list of qualifications: Bachelor’s Degree..., Preferred Certifications: CPA, 4-6 years..., Consistent travel..., Exempt position note about hours.
- Benefits: list of benefits from benefits paragraph.
- Pay: compensation range.
- Schedule: maybe from "Plante Moran enjoys a “Workplace for Your Day” model..." which describes flexibility and balance, in-person model, optimal working environment each day. That's schedule info.
We should not include Skills section as no explicit skills list.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must keep details like percentages, numbers, etc.
Let's extract exact phrasing.
Intro:
"Count on us. Our "we-care" culture is more than just a motto; it's a promise. From day one, we prioritize your growth, well-being, and success. You can count on us to support your career journey and help you achieve your professional goals. Join us. Our management consulting team focuses on our clients’ critical business needs. From transaction services to operations and everything in between, our integrated solution approach is designed to help enable and manage growth, leverage resources, and mitigate costs and risks. At Plante Moran, we have the privilege of serving clients and providing consultative services as they face challenges and seek new opportunities. Plante Moran’s Transaction Advisory Services (TAS) team delivers strategic guidance and financial due diligence across the investment lifecycle, from pre-LOI through post-acquisition. As a manager, you will focus on buy-side and sell-side due diligence engagements, including quality of earnings analysis, working capital assessments, and review of accounting policies to evaluate performance sustainability and identify risks."
That's a paragraph.
Then "Responsibilities include researching industry and target data, building financial models, analyzing financial statements under GAAP, calculating adjustments, preparing reports, presenting findings, participating in client meetings, supervision, and assisting with project scoping."
Then "Your role. Your Work Will Include, But Not Be Limited To Provide transaction oriented accounting and reporting assistance for mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and management buyoutsPrepare detailed financial analysis to assist clients evaluating acquisition decisionsParticipate in client meetings and site visits while interacting with top-level management to acquire and assess important information for financial analysisDevelop and review financial forecastsAssist with development and review of financial reports to determine quality of historical earnings and assets and liabilities to be acquiredAnalyze financial statements to determine sustainability of performanceAssist in preparing proposals and engagement lettersOrganize varying projects against deadlines and mange time effectively"
Note there are missing spaces and punctuation; we should preserve as is but maybe we can add spaces for readability? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We should keep the text as given, but we can format into list items. The list items currently are concatenated without spaces; we could split by capital letters? Better to keep as is but maybe we can add
- each line separated by a period? However the original text lacks punctuation between items. It's messy. We could preserve as a single paragraph? But instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make a list. We need to parse the items.
Let's manually split based on verbs:
- Provide transaction oriented accounting and reporting assistance for mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and management buyouts
- Prepare detailed financial analysis to assist clients evaluating acquisition decisions
- Participate in client meetings and site visits while interacting with top-level management to acquire and assess important information for financial analysis
- Develop and review financial forecasts
- Assist with development and review of financial reports to determine quality of historical earnings and assets and liabilities to be acquired
- Analyze financial statements to determine sustainability of performance
- Assist in preparing proposals and engagement letters
- Organize varying projects against deadlines and mange time effectively
Note "mange" typo; we keep as is.
Now responsibilities list also includes: researching industry and target data, building financial models, analyzing financial statements under GAAP, calculating adjustments, preparing reports, presenting findings, participating in client meetings, supervision, and assisting with project scoping.
We can combine both lists into one responsibilities list, but ensure we don't duplicate. Some items overlap: preparing reports, participating in client meetings, etc. We'll keep all unique items.
Let's create a combined list:
- Researching industry and target data
- Building financial models
- Analyzing financial statements under GAAP
- Calculating adjustments
- Preparing reports
- Presenting findings
- Participating in client meetings
- Supervision
- Assisting with project scoping
- Provide transaction oriented accounting and reporting assistance for mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and management buyouts
- Prepare detailed financial analysis to assist clients evaluating acquisition decisions
- Participate in client meetings and site visits while interacting with top-level management to acquire and assess important information for financial analysis
- Develop and review financial forecasts
- Assist with development and review of financial reports to determine quality of historical earnings and assets and liabilities to be acquired
- Analyze financial statements to determine sustainability of performance
- Assist in preparing proposals and engagement letters
- Organize varying projects against deadlines and mange time effectively
Note some duplicates: participating in client meetings appears twice; we could keep both but maybe deduplicate. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; deduplication might be considered summarizing away detail? It's ambiguous. Safer to keep both as they appear in original text, even if duplicate. But we could keep both; it's not inventing. However it's repetitive; but we are not summarizing away detail, we are preserving duplicates. I'd keep both.
Now qualifications:
- Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting or Finance
- Preferred Certifications: CPA
- 4-6 years of experience in a Transaction Advisory services practice, an Audit or Consulting practice, or Investment Banking
- Consistent travel with approximately 20% overnight
- This is an exempt position, so you may have to work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week.
Now benefits:
From paragraph: "We are pleased to offer eligible staff a robust benefits package. Eligibility and contribution requirements for some of these benefits vary based on the number of hours staff work per week. Highlights include health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance. In addition to this, eligible staff are able to take advantage of our Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays, as well as a 401(k) plan, flexible benefits plans, business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use. A pension plan is also available for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff. A discretionary bonus plan is available for eligible staff. Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time."
We need to list benefits as
- . Let's extract each benefit:
- health insurance
- dental insurance
- vision insurance
- disability insurance
- life insurance
- Flexible Time Off
- various pre-determined holidays
- 401(k) plan
- flexible benefits plans
- business-related travel expense reimbursement

- meal reimbursement for business-related use
- pension plan (for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff)
- discretionary bonus plan (for eligible staff)
- option to elect health insurance for some contingent staff positions (in addition to limited paid sick time)
- limited paid sick time (for contingent staff)
We could keep as separate items.
Now Pay: compensation range: "$123,000.00-$185,000.00" for CO, IL, OH, MA. Also note that generally experienced hires not hired at or near max, etc. That's substantive. We should include that detail.
Thus Pay section: include the range and note about compensation
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have content. Let's decide sections: - About the role (or About the company). We'll use "About the role". Content: introductory paragraphs about culture, we-care, management consulting team focus, TAS description, what makes us different (culture, diversity, workplace model). Could be multiple paragraphs. - Responsibilities: list of duties from "Responsibilities include..." and also the "Your role.
