Vice President, Regional Advocacy
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide sections: About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (essential functions broken down). Requirements (maybe experience/qualifications). Qualifications (maybe education?). But we have both EXPERIENCE/QUALIFICATIONS and KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITY. Could combine into Requirements and Skills sections. The instruction: Use headings for e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have:
- About the role: intro paragraph describing organization and role.
- Responsibilities: essential functions (Strategic Leadership & Legislative Impact, Team Management & Development, Volunteer Engagement & Mobilization, Development & External Relations, Senior Leadership Team). Could be a list.
- Requirements: maybe experience/qualifications (Bachelor's degree, 15+ years experience, etc.)
- Qualifications: maybe education? But we already used education in requirements. Could separate: Requirements = experience, Qualifications = education? Or we could treat Requirements as experience, Qualifications as education and maybe other qualifications. But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine education and experience into Requirements, and Skills into Skills section. Qualifications could be omitted if thin. But we need to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can decide to have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (experience/education), Skills (knowledge, skills, ability), Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Travel? Not a heading. Could include Travel under Responsibilities? Not needed.
We must not create Schedule unless stated. Not present.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay.
Now we need to format.
About the role: a
containing the intro paragraph plus remote role note.
We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract the intro paragraph exactly (but we can rephrase? Must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. We can keep the same sentences but maybe combine. It's okay to keep as is.
Let's copy:
"The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is the nation's leading cancer advocacy organization. Together with our charitable partner, the American Cancer Society, we work in Congress, state legislatures and local jurisdictions to support evidence-based policy and legislative solutions designed to eliminate cancer as a major health problem. The Vice President, Regional Advocacy is a senior leader responsible for driving legislative and regulatory progress across approximately 25 states and developing and overseeing a high-performing team of 60+ advocacy professionals. This role leads strategic efforts to secure evidence-based state and local legislative wins, defend patient protections, and support federal campaigns. The position also plays a critical role in external relations, volunteer engagement, and donor development, ensuring grassroots power and philanthropic support are aligned with the organization’s mission to improve patient outcomes and advance health equity. This role develops, plans, and manages a budget for regions and state operations. The Vice President, Regional Advocacy serves on the organization’s Senior Leadership team (SLT). Develops and manages budget for organization. Senior Vice President, State & Local Advocacy plays a unique role in driving organizational priorities and plays a key connective role with OneACS colleagues Enterprise-wide. This position serves on the organization’s senior leadership team. The position also plays a role in external relations, volunteer engagement, and donor support, ensuring grassroots power and philanthropic support are aligned with the organization’s mission to improve patient outcomes and advance health equity. **This is a remote role**"
Note there is some repetition. We should preserve all substantive information, but we can keep as is; duplication is okay? The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicated lines. There's duplication: "Develops and manages budget for organization." appears twice? Actually first: "This role develops, plans, and manages a budget for regions and state operations." Then later: "Develops and manages budget for organization." Also later: "The Vice President, Regional Advocacy serves on the organization’s Senior Leadership team (SLT)." repeated. Also "This position serves on the organization’s senior leadership team." repeated. Also external relations etc repeated. We need to remove duplicated lines while preserving all substantive info (i.e., keep unique info). So we need to deduplicate.
Let's identify unique statements:
- The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is the nation's leading cancer advocacy organization.
- Together with our charitable partner, the American Cancer Society, we work in Congress, state legislatures and local jurisdictions to support evidence-based policy and legislative solutions designed to eliminate cancer as a major health problem.

- The position also plays a role in external relations, volunteer engagement, and donor support, ensuring grassroots power and philanthropic support are aligned with the organization’s mission to improve patient outcomes and advance health equity. (duplicate of earlier external relations line)
- **This is a remote role**
We can keep one instance of each unique idea.
Thus About the role paragraph could be:

We removed duplicate external relations line and duplicate senior leadership team line.
Now Responsibilities: essential functions with percentages.
We need to list each bullet as
