Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Must not repeat job title. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content: About The Role (section). Key Responsibilities (list). Required Qualifications (list). Preferred Qualifications (list). Leadership Profile (maybe part of About? Could be separate but not required heading). There's also About Accruent, Fortive Corporation Overview, About Accruent personal development etc. Those are boilerplate? They are company description, maybe not required but could be considered "About the role"? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Company description may be considered not essential? It's not about role but could be considered "About Accruent". Not listed as allowed heading; we could include as a

under About the role? But we should preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include company description somewhere. Since we have no specific heading for that, we could put it under About the role as prose after the role description. Or we could create a separate section like "About the Company" but not allowed heading list; we could just put as

after About the role heading. We must not include Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless present. Not present. So we omit those sections. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So Responsibilities list, Required Qualifications list, Preferred Qualifications list. We need to preserve all substantive information: include details like location, reports to, etc. Those are metadata; we can fold into a short

  or drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." So we can include location and reports to in a short paragraph after About the role heading. We must not repeat job title as heading. So we start with

  About the role

  then a

  containing location and reports to maybe. Then responsibilities:

  Responsibilities

  then
  with each responsibility as
  • . The responsibilities are long sentences; we can break them into bullet points as given. Then Required Qualifications:

    then

    Preferred Qualifications

    then

    Leadership Profile

    but not in allowed list? The allowed list includes Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Leadership Profile not listed; but we could treat it as part of About the role or as a

    . However we need to preserve all substantive information; we could include it as a

    after Preferred Qualifications. Also About Accruent and Fortive overview: we could include as a

    after Leadership Profile. We must not include EEO boilerplate etc. The ending includes "We Are an Equal Opportunity Employer..." which is boilerplate; we should remove. Thus final HTML fragment. Let's craft. Check for any duplicated lines: we need to avoid repeating. We'll produce:

    About the role

    Location: Austin, TX (preferred) or Remote, United States. Reports to: Chief Financial Officer, Accruent.

    [role description prose from About The Role paragraph(s)]

    But we need to preserve the prose about the role: The paragraph starting "Accruent is seeking a Vice President of Financial Planning & Analysis..." etc. We'll include that as

    . Then responsibilities list. Then required qualifications list. Then preferred qualifications list. Then leadership profile as

    . Then About Accruent description as

    . Then Fortive Corporation Overview as

    . Then Accruent personal development/Grow Without Limits as
