for intro paragraphs and general text,

for section headers (Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). Use

• for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills). No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
  , no
  . Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase. If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

  tags. We have a job description with sections: Position, Contract, Location, Closing Date, then DUTIES with subsections A-F each with bullet points (starting with ·). Also there is an introductory paragraph: "The International Institute of Tropical Agriculture seeks suitable Nigerian nationals for the position below at the Institute’s Headquarters in Ibadan." Then empty

  . Then position line etc. We need to convert to semantic HTML: Use

  for intro paragraphs and general text. Use

  for section headers like "DUTIES". Also subheaders like "A. Digital Strategy and Leadership" maybe treat as

  ? The instruction says use

  for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So only those specific headers? But we can also treat other headings as

  if they are section headers. Probably we should treat "DUTIES" as

  . Subsection headers like "A. Digital Strategy and Leadership" maybe also

  or maybe just bold? But we must preserve original content word-for-word, cannot change text. We can wrap them in

  tags but that would change the text? Actually wrapping does not change text, just adds tags. That's allowed. The content remains same. So we can convert each heading line to

  heading. But we must not add any extra text. So we keep the exact same strings, just wrap them. We also need to convert bullet points (starting with ·) into

  • . The bullet symbol is a middle dot? It's "·      ". We need to preserve the bullet symbol? The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. So we must keep the bullet symbol and spaces? If we wrap in
  • , we keep the bullet symbol inside the
  • . That's okay. We also need to handle other paragraphs like position, contract, location, closing date. Those are currently in

    with . We should keep them as

    but maybe we should not keep the tags? The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. That includes the tags? The original text includes HTML tags (). We must preserve them exactly. So we cannot remove . However the output should be semantic HTML; we can keep inside

    . That's fine. But we also need to use

    for introductory paragraphs and general text. So we keep the existing

    tags but maybe we need to ensure they are proper. The input already has

    tags. We can just output the same but ensure we replace with (keep). Also we need to convert the bullet lists to

    • . Also we need to convert headings to

      . Also we need to remove empty

      maybe? The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. If we remove empty

      , we are removing content (an empty paragraph). That might be considered removal. But maybe we can keep it; it's harmless. However empty

      is just a paragraph with no content; preserving it is fine. We'll keep it. We must not add any explanation. Just output HTML. Let's process the input: Original:

      We need to transform: - Intro paragraph: keep as

      ...

      - Empty

      keep. - Position line: currently

      Position:        Digital Transformation Manager

      . Keep as is. - Contract line:

      Contract:       2-years renewable contract                                            

      . Keep as is. - Location line:

      Location: Ibadan

      - Closing Date line:

      Closing Date: 10 September 2026

      - Empty

      after that. - DUTIES heading: currently

      DUTIES

      . Should become

      DUTIES

      ? Or maybe just

      DUTIES

      but we must preserve original content word-for-word, which includes the tags. So we keep DUTIES inside

      . So

      DUTIES

      . - Subsection A heading:

      A.     Digital Strategy and Leadership

      . Should become

      A.     Digital Strategy and Leadership

      . - Then bullet points: each line starts with "·      " then text. We need to wrap each bullet line in
    • inside a
      . The bullet symbol and spaces should stay inside
      • . So we need to group consecutive bullet lines under one
        . There are blank lines (like

         

        ) separating sections. We'll treat each group of bullet lines as a
        . Also there may be multiple

         

        lines (non-breaking space). We'll keep them as is? They are empty paragraphs with  . We could keep them as

         

        . That's fine. Thus for each subsection, we need to convert:

        A....

        ->

        A....

        Then subsequent

        ·....

        lines until we hit a

        that is not a bullet (i.e., either another heading, or empty

         

        , or a new heading). We'll wrap those in
        • ...
        . We must preserve the original content word-for-word, including the bullet symbol and spaces. So inside
        • we keep the exact string from the

          tag (including the leading "·      " and the rest). We should strip the surrounding

          tags? The instruction says use

          • for list items. So we should replace the

            tags with

          • tags, preserving the inner content. So we remove the

            tags around each bullet line and replace with

          • . That's okay because we are not adding or removing text, just changing tags. The inner content remains same. Similarly for headings, we replace

            with

            . We also need to keep other paragraphs like the intro, position, contract, location, closing date as

            (they already are). We should not change them to something else. We also need to keep empty

            and

             

            as is. Now we need to produce final HTML string. Let's process stepwise. I'll copy the original and transform. Original lines (I'll separate by

            but easier to just manually edit). I'll write the final HTML: Start:

            The International Institute of Tropical Agriculture seeks suitable Nigerian nationals for the position below at the Institute’s Headquarters in Ibadan.

            Position:        Digital Transformation Manager

            Contract:       2-years renewable contract                                            

            Location: Ibadan

            Closing Date: 10 September 2026

            Now DUTIES heading:

            DUTIES

            Now subsection A heading:

            A.     Digital Strategy and Leadership

            Now bullet lines for A: We have four bullet lines: 1. ·       Develop and lead the implementation of a costed Digital Transformation Strategy and roadmap for I-Youth 2.0 across Nigeria, Liberia and Sierra Leone, aligned with the project's theory of change and the broader Youth in Agribusiness digital strategy. 2. ·       Provide strategic advice to the Executive Manager, I-Youth 2.0, CEO, Youth in Agribusiness, PMO and Country Coordinators on digital transformation priorities, opportunities, risks and investment decisions. 3. ·       Champion a culture of data-driven and technology-enabled program delivery, ensuring that digital solutions are demand-led, user-centered and embedded across program operations. 4. ·       Represent the project's digital transformation agenda at donor engagements, technical forums, partnership meetings and knowledge-sharing platforms. After that there is

             

            (empty). So we wrap those four in
            • ...
            . Thus:
            • ·       Develop and lead the implementation of a costed Digital Transformation Strategy and roadmap for I-Youth 2.0 across Nigeria, Liberia and Sierra Leone, aligned with the project's theory of change and the broader Youth in Agribusiness digital strategy.
