• . Must preserve all original content word-for-word, no additions, deletions, rephrasing. Must not add extra tags like
  . Use

  for section headers like "Responsibilities", "Qualifications", etc. The raw text includes headings like "CHILD SAFEGUARDING", "ROLE PURPOSE:", "KEY AREAS OF ACCOUNTABILITY:", "Communication and Security:", "Coordination:", "Administration & Reports:", "BEHAVIOURS (Values in Practice)", "QUALIFICATIONS", "EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS", "Additional job responsibilities", "Equal Opportunities", "Child Safeguarding", "Safeguarding our Staff", "Health and Safety". We need to wrap each section header in

  . The content after each header should be wrapped in

  or

  • as appropriate. The original uses bullet points with • and line breaks. We need to convert bullet points into
  • items. Also need to preserve the bullet symbols? The instruction: Use
    • for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills). So we should wrap bullet items in
    • . The bullet symbol can be kept as part of text? Probably we can just include the bullet character inside
    • . But better to remove the bullet character and just have the text? The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase. So we must keep the bullet symbol as part of the content. So we can have
    • • Oversee procurement requirements... etc. That preserves the bullet. We need to wrap each paragraph in

      . For sections that are not bullet lists, just

      ... content...

      . For bullet lists, we need
      • ... each bullet ...
      . The original has multiple bullet lists under "KEY AREAS OF ACCOUNTABILITY:", "QUALIFICATIONS", "EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS", etc. We must not add any extra commentary. Just the HTML. Let's parse the raw text: First part:

      TITLE:  Supply Chain Officer
      TEAM/PROGRAMME: HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE    LOCATION: Borno.
      GRADE: 4    CONTRACT LENGTH: 1 year

      That's a paragraph with bold tags and line breaks. We need to preserve word-for-word, but we cannot use or
      . The instruction says use

      for introductory paragraphs and general text,

      for section headers,

      • for list items. No inline styles, no
        . But we can keep the tags? The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase. So we must keep the tags as they appear? The original includes tags. The instruction says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". That includes HTML tags? The raw text is plain-text job description, but includes HTML tags like . The instruction says "You receive a plain-text job description." The content includes HTML tags. We need to output clean semantic HTML, but we must preserve all original content word-for-word. That suggests we should keep the same characters, including and   etc. However we are to format it as clean semantic HTML using

        ,

        ,

        • . So we need to transform the structure but keep the text exactly as is, including the markup? The instruction says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". That includes the HTML tags? The original includes and   etc. If we remove them, we would be removing content. So we must keep them. But we also need to use

          for paragraphs and

          for headers. The original uses for headings. We can keep them inside the

          or we can replace them with

          ? The instruction says use

          for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications...). So we should replace the section header text with

          tags, but we must preserve the original content word-for-word. That includes the header text itself. So we can wrap the header text in

          tags, but we must keep the original header text exactly as appears, including any bold markup? The original header text is like "CHILD SAFEGUARDING". It appears inside tags. The content is "CHILD SAFEGUARDING". The tags are part of the markup, not part of the visible text. The instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. That likely includes the markup as part of the content. But we are to output clean semantic HTML, which may not include . However we cannot remove the because that would be removing content. But we can keep it inside the

          or

          . The instruction says "Use

          for section headers". So we should replace the wrapper with

          . But we must preserve the text inside. So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          . That would preserve the text "CHILD SAFEGUARDING" but not the tags. However the original had CHILD SAFEGUARDING? Actually it's CHILD SAFEGUARDING: with colon after. The colon is outside the strong tag. So the text "CHILD SAFEGUARDING" is bolded. If we output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          we are preserving the text but not the bold markup. Is that considered removal? The instruction says do not remove any content. The tags are part of the markup, but they are not visible content. The visible content is "CHILD SAFEGUARDING". So we can keep that. The instruction didn't explicitly require to keep the tags; it says preserve ALL original content word-for-word. That includes the visible text, not the markup. So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          . That seems acceptable. But there are other parts like "ROLE PURPOSE:" which includes colon. We need to output

          ROLE PURPOSE:

          maybe. The colon is part of the text. So we can output

          ROLE PURPOSE:

          . That preserves the text "ROLE PURPOSE:" including colon. Thus we will replace each heading that is currently wrapped in with

          . The heading may have trailing colon. We'll keep that. Now we need to go through the entire raw text and produce HTML. Let's list sections in order: 1. The first paragraph with TITLE, TEAM/PROGRAMME, LOCATION, GRADE, CONTRACT LENGTH. This is a paragraph with bold tags and line breaks. We need to preserve it as a paragraph. It contains tags and
          . We need to keep them? The instruction says preserve all original content word-for-word. So we must keep the tags and
          as they appear. But we also need to wrap the whole thing in

          . So we can output

          ...content...

          exactly as is, including and
          . That would preserve the content. However we also need to use

          for introductory paragraphs and general text. So we can just output

          ...content...

          . That includes the and
          inside. That's okay. But we also need to use

          for section headers. The first paragraph does not have a header; it's just a block of info. So we keep it as

          ...content...

          . 2. Next paragraph: CHILD SAFEGUARDING:
          Level 3:  the post holder will have contact... This is a paragraph with headings and line breaks. We need to treat "CHILD SAFEGUARDING" as a header? It is a section header. So we should output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          then the rest as paragraph(s). The colon after it is part of the text. The original has "CHILD SAFEGUARDING:" then
          Level 3:  ... So we need to preserve that. We can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          : then a

          ...content...

          that includes the rest. But we must preserve the colon after the header? The colon is part of the text after the closing . So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          : then a space then the rest. But we need to preserve the colon exactly as in original. The original has "CHILD SAFEGUARDING:" then
          . So after the closing strong tag, there is a colon. So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          : then a

          ...content...

          . That would preserve the colon after the header. However the colon is part of the text that follows the header, not part of the header itself. The instruction says use

          for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications...). So the header is "CHILD SAFEGUARDING". The colon is not part of the header; it's just punctuation after it. So we can keep it outside the

          . That's fine. But we must preserve the
          tag. The original has
          after the colon. So we need to keep that
          inside the paragraph? Actually after the colon, there is a line break, then Level 3:  ... So we can output

          ...content...

          that includes the
          and the rest. But we need to preserve the
          tag. So we can just keep it inside the

          . Thus we can output:

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :

          Level 3:  the post holder will have contact...

          But we need to preserve the colon after the header. The original has "CHILD SAFEGUARDING:" then
          . So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :
          ... but we need to keep the colon after the header. Actually the colon is after the closing strong tag, so we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          : then a
          then the rest. But the colon is part of the text that precedes the
          . So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :
          ... but that would add a space before colon? Let's just output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :

          ...content...

          and include the
          inside the paragraph? Actually the
          is after the colon, before the next strong tag. So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :

          Level 3:  ...

          but we need to preserve the line break? The
          is just a line break; we can just not include it because we are using

          which automatically breaks. But we must preserve the original content word-for-word, which includes the
          . So we must keep the
          tag. So we can output

          CHILD SAFEGUARDING

          :
          

          Level 3:  ...

          . But that would have
          outside

          . That's not allowed? We can have
          inside

          ? Actually
          is not allowed inside

          according to HTML spec; it's allowed but it's a line break. But the instruction says use

          for paragraphs and general text, no
          . So we should not use
          tags. However we must preserve the original content word-for-word, which includes
          . This is a conflict. The instruction says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". So we must keep the
          tag. But the rule also says "Use

          for introductory paragraphs and general text". It doesn't forbid
          tags, but says no
          tags. Actually the rule says "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no

          s, no
          tags". So we cannot use
          tags in the output. So we must remove them? But that would be removing content. However the rule explicitly says no
          tags. So we must not output
          . But we must preserve original content word-for-word. This is contradictory. In such cases, we need to prioritize the higher-level instruction? The instruction hierarchy: The user gave explicit rules: "Use

          for introductory paragraphs and general text ... No CSS classes, no inline styles, no

          s, no
          tags". So we cannot use
          . But also "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". This suggests we cannot remove the
          . However the rule about no
          tags is a formatting rule that overrides preservation? The instruction says "Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." and then lists rules, including "No ...
          tags". So we must not output
          . So we must remove the
          tags, which is a removal of content, but it's required by the formatting rule. The instruction about preserving content may be interpreted as preserving the visible text, not the markup tags. The
          tag is not visible content; it's a markup artifact. So we can remove it. That seems permissible. Thus we will not output
          tags. We'll just treat line breaks as paragraph breaks. Thus we will output

          ...content...

          without
          . Now we need to process each section. Let's go through the raw text step by step and produce HTML. I'll copy the raw text and annotate sections. Raw text:
