We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to extract content. The description includes many paragraphs. We need to reformat into semantic HTML. We must not repeat job title as heading (the page already shows it). So no heading for VP, Project Management. We need to include sections: About the role (maybe a brief description), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe education/experience), Skills (maybe abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to preserve all substantive info, no filler. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove lines about diversity statement, vaccination policy, etc. Those are boilerplate; we should drop them. We need to keep substantive info: description of role, responsibilities, qualifications, salary range, benefits. Let's parse.

GSW is a full-service healthcare communications agency that goes beyond advertising to create personalized brand experiences that involve, inspire, educate and activate people through ongoing brand journeys. As one of the world’s ten most-awarded healthcare advertising agencies, GSW is hell-bent not to replace the same old with the same old. This is achieved through a provocative premise — if other brands communicated the way healthcare brands do, how many customers would they have? GSW turns against this premise through discovery of beneath-the-surface customer insights that we impact with stories, simplicity and authenticity. Work Here Matters Everywhere | How are you inspired to change lives? Syneos Health companies are affirmative action/equal opportunity employers (Minorities/Females/Veterans/Disabled) Syneos Health has a voluntary COVID-19 vaccination policy. We strongly encourage all employees to be fully vaccinated. Additionally, certain local governments or Syneos Health customers may have vaccine requirements that apply to some of our employees. These employees are required to submit proof of vaccination to Syneos Health and maintain compliance with these requirements. At Syneos Health, we believe in providing an environment and culture in which Our People can thrive, develop and advance.

Because certain states and municipalities have regulated paid sick time requirements, eligibility for paid sick time may vary depending on where you work. Syneos Health complies with all applicable federal, state, and municipal paid sick time requirements." We need to strip out boilerplate: diversity statement, vaccination policy, etc. Also remove lines about "At GSW, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace..." etc. Also remove "Work Here Matters Everywhere | How are you inspired to change lives?" maybe not boilerplate but could be considered tagline; but it's not substantive about role? Might be considered fluff; but we can keep if it's part of description? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Work Here Matters Everywhere | How are you inspired to change lives?" is maybe a tagline but not boilerplate; but it's not essential. Might be considered fluff but not prohibited. However we can keep if it's substantive? It's more of a marketing tagline; but we can keep as part of About the role? Might be okay. But we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", etc. Not present. We need to create sections: - About the role: maybe a brief paragraph summarizing role: The VP, Project Management oversees team, client-facing, etc. - Responsibilities: list of duties (execution and management of multichannel projects, estimating, budget management, brand team leadership, creative problem-solving, client-facing role, high-level planning meetings, presentation skills, speaking to schedules, managing client expectations, drafting SOW, budget estimates, scope definitions, reviewing quality, creating/approving timelines, creating new processes, hands-on lead PM for key accounts $2-5mm, multichannel expertise, team management, financial management). We'll need to extract bullet points. - Requirements: maybe the qualifications: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent plus at least 7+ years of project management experience in Pharmaceutical Advertising, previous launch experience, strong digital experience (5+ years), previous people management experience preferred, ability to collaborate closely, outstanding communication, organization, leadership, interpersonal skills. - Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? But we need differentiate: maybe Qualifications section for education/experience, Skills for abilities. However the posting lumps them. We could treat "Qualifications" as education/experience, and "Skills" as communication, organization, leadership, interpersonal, collaboration, etc. - Benefits: competitive compensation package, health benefits (medical, dental, vision), company match 401k, flexible PTO and sick time. - Pay: annual base salary $150,000 to $170,000. - Schedule: not mentioned; no schedule info. So we should NOT include Schedule section. We must not include sections with filler. So we will include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. No Schedule. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. So headings:

About the role

, etc. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like "$2-5mm", "Santa Monica office", etc. Let's extract details. About the role: Could be first paragraph: "You know that the outcome of a project hinges on two things: the plan and the people. You are the glue that holds these two together. You easily maneuver the precarious path of maintaining the strategy and pace of a project, while keeping your team engaged and enthusiastic. You know what needs to be done, and your penchant for strategic delegation and problem-solving makes you a natural fit for this Vice President, Project Management position with GSW." Also mention oversight of team, client-facing PM lead in Santa Monica office. Could combine. But we must not repeat job title as heading; but we can mention it in prose. Let's craft About the role paragraph: combine the initial motivational sentences and the oversight description. Responsibilities: list bullet points. Let's enumerate responsibilities from text: - Oversight of the Project Management team at GSW, which includes Project Coordinators, Project Managers, Senior Project Managers and Associate Directors and Directors. - Execution and management of multichannel projects through agency development processes. - Estimating and scope of work composition. - Budget and scope management. - Multichannel delivery expertise. - Brand team leadership and communication. - Creative problem-solving. - Client-facing PM lead in the Santa Monica office. - Responsible for overall quality of work
