We need to remove application instructions and EEO etc. The last paragraph includes application instructions and visa note; we should remove that as boilerplate. Also remove "If your experience aligns closely, please apply..." etc. Also remove "We value diverse backgrounds..." etc. Also remove the link and note.
We need to keep substantive info: company intro, role description, responsibilities list, education/experience requirements, skills/abilities, benefits.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe includes company intro and role overview). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (education/experience). Qualifications? Might overlap with requirements. Skills (skills and abilities). Benefits (financial benefits). Pay? Not explicitly stated besides "Competitive Compensation". That's a benefit but could be Pay section. However we should only create Pay section if posting actually states pay. It says "Competitive Compensation" but not a specific number. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "Competitive Compensation" as part of benefits. That is a statement about pay, albeit vague. Should we include Pay section? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state Competitive Compensation, which is a statement about pay. So we could include a Pay section with that line. However they also list benefits; we could combine Benefits and Pay? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Pay and Benefits into a Benefits section that includes compensation details. But they have separate headings for Pay, Benefits, Schedule. We could make a Benefits section that includes compensation, bonuses, 401k, profit sharing, PTO, health etc. That seems appropriate. No schedule info given, so omit Schedule.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience), Skills (skills and abilities), Benefits (including compensation, bonuses, 401k, profit sharing, PTO, health etc). Possibly also Qualifications? But Requirements already covers education/experience; Qualifications could be certifications etc. But we can keep Requirements to include education, experience, certifications. Skills separate.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for each section heading.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
.
We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to extract lists.
Let's parse responsibilities: It's a long sentence with many clauses separated by periods? Actually after "As VP, Internal Audit, You Will" there is a list of items each starting with a verb, but they are not separated by punctuation consistently. We need to turn them into list items. We'll need to split by verbs like "Leads", "Develop", "Leads", "Develop", "Establish", "Ensure", "Coordinate", "Communicate", "Effectively communicate", "Evaluates", "Evaluates", "Establish", "Communicates", "Also follows up", "Participate", "Responsible for", "Lives", "Keeps current", "Performs various audits", "Performs other duties". We'll create list items for each distinct responsibility.
We need to be careful not to lose any detail.
Let's copy the responsibilities paragraph exactly:
"As VP, Internal Audit, You Will Leads the Internal Audit function in a manner consistent with standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, and with the expectations of the Audit Committee and its charter.Develop strategy and align resources of the internal audit department that are consistent with the organization's risk management, control, and governance framework.Leads the internal audit team as well as audit consultants where determined necessary.Develop audit risk assessment with input and in consultation with senior leadership and the Audit Committee.Establish risk-based audit plans to set out the priorities of the internal audit function and procedures to guide the internal audit function and ensure the quality of the assurance services delivered.Ensure that internal audit resources are appropriate, sufficient and effectively deployed to achieve the internal audit plan approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.Coordinate internal auditing activities and plans with other internal and external providers of assurance and consulting activities to optimize coverage, cost, effectiveness, and effort.Communicate plan of engagements and resource requirements
