We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a description of organization, mission, values, etc. Could be "About the role" or "About the organization". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections have content. We have: - About the role: Could be the position summary and description of role. Yes we have Position Summary and duties. So we can have "About the role" with prose summarizing role. - Responsibilities: We have Duties and Responsibilities list. So we can have

Responsibilities

with
  • items. - Requirements: Could be Minimum Qualifications etc. Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use. Probably combine into "Qualifications" (minimum qualifications) and maybe "Skills". But we must not create thin sections. Let's see content: Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree, master's preferred, proven track record, eight years experience, etc. Also "Must possess excellent oral and written communication skills..." etc. That's qualifications. Also "Computer literacy required..." etc. Also "Experience with Blackbaud’s Raiser’s Edge preferred." Also "Demonstrated understanding..." etc. Also "Must be available for evening hours and weekends..." That's schedule? Actually schedule is separate. We also have "Schedule: MondayFriday, 8:30am5pm. Some evenings and weekends to support organizational events." So we have schedule info. We have "Wage Range: $180,000/Yr$210,000/Yr". That's pay. We have "Benefits Eligible: Yes" and a link to benefits. So we have benefits info. Thus we can have sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (duties), Qualifications (minimum qualifications), Skills (maybe we can extract skills like communication, relationship building, computer literacy, etc.) but we could combine skills into Qualifications. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule, Benefits. That's six sections. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is VP of Philanthropy & Communications. We'll not use that. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, cookie/navigation/legal etc. Remove EEO statement at end. Also remove "Category: Philanthropy and Communications Type: Company Employee Status: FullTime". That's metadata; we can fold into a short p or drop. Probably drop. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can rephrase? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. That suggests we should not omit details, but we can rephrase? It says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the details, maybe as is, but we can format into HTML. Likely we can copy sentences. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:

    About the role

    ... position summary paragraph ...

    Then responsibilities list. Then qualifications. Then pay. Then schedule. Then benefits. We need to ensure we include all details: organization description, mission, values, etc. That could be part of About the role or maybe a separate "About the organization". But we only have headings list; we could use About the role to include both role and organization description. That's okay. Let's extract the position summary: "The VP of Philanthropy & Communications is part of the senior leadership team (SLT) for Montgomery & Prince George’s Hospice and is responsible for strategic planning, organizing, and implementing programs designed to provide annual operating, capital, and endowment support for the organization. In addition to providing strategic guidance to the CEO, SLT and board on philanthropy matters, the VP of Philanthropy and Communications is also responsible for the management of routine operations of the department including developing and monitoring revenue and program goals, managing budget performance, supervising staff, overseeing the planning and execution of fundraising events, directing donor research, and managing the donor stewardship and acknowledgment process. Directs all external communications and outreach efforts, including media relations, marketing communications and community outreach." We also have introductory paragraph about organization: "Are you looking for a meaningful career working alongside a high caliber healthcare team? Join MONTGOMERY HOSPICE INC. and make a difference in the lives of people living with a serious illness. Our team brings expert care and compassion to the bedside every day. Montgomery Hospice, Inc., one of the nation’s first independent, non-profit hospice providers, has served as a regional center of excellence for hospice and palliative care since 1981, and has deep roots in our community.

Our organization promotes a culture of respect and belonging, and values and supports work-life harmony. Montgomery Hospice, Inc. offers competitive salaries and benefits, professional development opportunities, and fulfilling work." We can include that in About the role. Now Responsibilities: list from "Duties and Responsibilities:" bullet points. We need to convert each sentence into
  • . Let's extract them: - Designs, implements and manages a comprehensive revenue generating programs to address the immediate and longterm needs of the organization. - Manages the Philanthropy and Communications teams in a manner which defines responsibilities and ensures that the department budgets, goals and objectives are met in an efficient and effective manner. - Responsible for hiring, supervising, motivating and coaching Philanthropy and Communications team members. - Identifies, cultivates, solicits and stewards current and prospective donors, including individuals, corporations, community organizations, foundations and government agencies. - Oversees the system of prospect identification and evaluation and monitors prospect research to ensure timely dissemination of results. - Establishes and manages procedures for securing and recording gifts and acknowledging donors to ensure timely execution and response. - Calls donors with gifts of $1,000 or more to cultivate and steward the relationships. - Develops and manages the annual department budgets. - Tracks progress of fundraising efforts and proposed plans and reports to President/CEO. - Serves as staff liaison to the Major Gifts & Philanthropy Committee, being responsible for preparing meeting agendas, taking minutes, assembling talking points and materials as well as followup with members, as well as training and coaching members as needed - Oversees the grants management process to ensure timely and appropriate submission of grant proposals including researching and drafting proposals as well as the possibility of managing a contract grant writer. - Drafts copy for annual and other specialized solicitation appeals and oversees, writes (as needed) and edits all development publication materials including articles for inhouse newsletters, special event invitations and brochures, the annual report, planned giving brochures and website materials. - Actively seeks opportunities to be involved in the external community to represent the organization, share its mission and cultivate and steward relationships for future support. - Coordinates philanthropic activities and programs in concert with other departments including the Business Development Department, integrating stewardship and cultivation efforts in a wide variety of activities. - Responsible for the development of collateral materials to build public awareness of hospice care in general and Montgomery Hospice in particular. - Responsible for overseeing promotional activities. - Oversees the development of content and design to enhance organization’s image and standing in the community. - Serves as an exofficio member of the Board Governance Committee to identify potential directors and ensure their understanding of the Board’s fundraising responsibilities. - Stays abreast of research and best practices in equity and inclusion, particularly among people receiving Hospice services, and infuse/adapt it to MHI culture and practice. - Develops communication system to share best practices, highlight bright spots, and keep staff apprised of key initiatives and activities, and build a culture of philanthropy across the organization. - Ensures the necessary dialogue is continually strengthening a safe, open, collaborative, and inclusive culture that fuels fresh ideas, challenges thinking, and empowers people so they can do their best work. - All other duties as assigned. We need to keep them as is. Now Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications paragraph plus other qualifications like "Must possess excellent oral and written communication skills..." etc. Also "Computer literacy required..." etc. Also "Experience with Blackbaud’s Raiser’s Edge preferred." Also "Demonstrated understanding..." etc. Also "Must be available for evening hours and weekends to support organizational events." That could be schedule but it's also a qualification. We'll keep schedule separate. Let's gather qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in related field required; master’s degree preferred. - Must possess a proven track record in developing and managing fundraising programs including supervisory experience in philanthropy, event planning, grant writing, prospect research, planned giving, donor cultivation and stewardship, and marketing of nonprofit organizations. - Minimum of eight years of progressive philanthropy experience with a minimum of five years leading teams to raise annual, capital, corporate, foundation and planned giving support. - Must possess excellent oral and written communication skills and ability to develop and achieve short and longterm goals, identify and resolve complex issues, pay strict attention to detail, and handle multiple priorities. - Firsthand experience with the identification, cultivation, solicitation and closure of major gifts of $25,000+. - Solid interpersonal and relationshipbuilding skills to effectively interface with internal and external constituencies including staff, Board, volunteers, donors and prospects. - Computer literacy required, including experience with database management software programs. - Experience with Blackbaud’s Raiser’s Edge preferred. - Demonstrated understanding of fundraising profession best practices and ethical standards, with a CFRE designation preferred. - Must be available for evening hours and weekends to support organizational events. (maybe schedule) We could also include "Must possess excellent oral and written communication skills..." as skill. We could create a Skills section for communication, interpersonal, computer literacy, etc. But to avoid many thin sections, we can keep qualifications as a list. Now Pay: Wage Range: $180,000/Yr$210,000/Yr (note missing space between Yr and $). We'll output as "$180,000/Yr – $210,000/Yr" maybe but we must preserve detail; we can keep exactly as written: "$180,000/Yr$210,000/Yr". Might be odd but it's what's there. Could add a space for readability but that would be altering. Safer to keep as is. Schedule: "MondayFriday, 8:30am5pm. Some evenings and weekends to support organizational events." There's missing space between Monday and Friday, and 8:30am and 5pm. We'll keep as is. Benefits: "Benefits Eligible: Yes To review benefits, please visit our website: https://montgomeryhospice.org/about-us/careers/". We'll make a paragraph. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO statement. Remove that. Now produce HTML:
