We'll need to convert each paragraph to

      . For list sections, we need to wrap each line in

    • inside
      . However there are also paragraphs that are not lists (like introductory paragraphs). We'll need to decide. Simplify: We can treat each block separated by blank lines as a paragraph. For sections that are clearly lists (like responsibilities, skills, experience, education, personal attributes list, values list, benefits list, application documents list), we will convert each line to
      • . But we must preserve the exact text, including leading/trailing spaces? We'll trim? Probably keep as is. We need to be careful not to add or remove content. So we must not change the text inside
      • . We'll just wrap. Let's identify each section. Start: "Introduction:" line. Then blank lines, then   (which is an HTML entity for non-breaking space). We should keep   as is. Then paragraphs. We'll produce:

        Introduction

        ? Actually the heading "Introduction:" is present. Should we treat that as a header? The instruction says use

        for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). It didn't list Introduction, but we could still treat it as a header? It says "If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

        tags". Since there is a clear heading "Introduction:", we could make it

        Introduction

        . But the heading includes colon. Should we keep colon? Probably keep as is:

        Introduction:

        . That preserves original content. Similarly "The role" heading. "Key Responsibilities" heading. Under that, there are subheadings "Assurance & Advisory" and "Forensic Investigations". Those could be

        as well. "lKey Skills" heading (note leading l). We'll keep as is. "Key Experience" "Formal Education/qualification" "Personal Attributes" "Our Values" "Application" Under Application, there are sub-sections: "Application Deadline: ...", "Benefits:", "Application documents should include:", "How to apply:". We could treat each as

        or just as paragraphs. The instruction says use

        for section headers like How to Apply, etc. So we can treat "Application Deadline: ..." as a paragraph? It's not a header but a line with colon. Might be considered a paragraph. Safer to treat as

        . However "Benefits:" could be a header. But we can just treat as

        with strong? Not allowed to add tags besides p, h4, ul, li. So we could make "Benefits:" as

        Benefits:

        . Similarly "Application documents should include:" as

        . "How to apply:" as

        . That seems reasonable. We need to preserve the exact text, including spaces and entities. Now we need to convert list items. Let's extract each list. Under Key Responsibilities, after "Assurance & Advisory" heading, there are lines each starting with a capital letter (except maybe "Performing spot checks..." starts with capital P). Each line ends with a period. We'll wrap each line in

        . Ensure we keep the line exactly as is, including internal spaces and entities. Similarly under "Forensic Investigations" heading, two lines. Under lKey Skills: after the line "To perform this role, it is essential that you have the following skills:" then blank line, then list items each starting with capital letter (except "Good working knowledge..." starts with G). We'll wrap each. Under Key Experience: after line "To perform this role, it is essential/desirable that you have the following experience:" then list items. Under Formal Education/qualification: after blank line, two lines. Under Personal Attributes: after the paragraph about recruitment, there is blank line, then "For this role, we’re looking for an individual who is:" then blank line, then list items each starting with capital letter (A highly motivated..., Demonstrate..., Demonstrate..., Able to...). We'll wrap those. Under Our Values: each line is a value statement ending with period. We'll wrap each as

        under a

        . However the values are presented as lines with bold? Actually they are lines like "Mission Driven: With unwavering commitment, we exist to empower women and men to have children by choice not chance." We'll keep as is. Under Application: after "Application Deadline: September 17, 2026 (midnight GMT)Annual Gross Salary: USD 48,600 to USD 54,840Contract Type: Local contractDuration: 12 months with possibility of renewal" that's a paragraph (no line break). Then "Benefits:" then list items each on new line: "Health coverage 100%", "Annual bonus", etc. We'll wrap those as
        • . Then after benefits list, there is blank line, then "Application documents should include:" then list items each on new line: "A cover letter (maximum 2 pages)...", "A detailed CV (maximum 4 pages).", "A certificate of good conduct.", "A list of 3 professional references with email addresses and phone numbers." Then "How to apply:" then paragraph: "There are two required steps:" then list items: "Step 1: Complete this form: Recruitment form for Internal Audit Manager  - DRCStep 2: Send your application to the following email address: drcrecruitment@mariestopes.org  with the subject line: “Application for Internal Audit Manager - DRC”" Wait that's actually two steps combined into one line?
