. Must preserve all original content word-for-word, no addition, removal, summarizing, rephrasing. So we need to extract the text content from the given HTML snippet, preserving exact wording, and then wrap sections appropriately.
We need to identify sections: Education, Experience, Training, then a table with content: (Limited Duration Contract): SM - Commercial Legal, then sections: Strategic input: (with list), Operational Planning and Process Enhancement:, Commercial Legal Support:, Reporting:, Supplier Relationship Management:, Customer Satisfaction:, Managerial / Supervisory Complexity:, Role Complexity:, Creativities:.
We need to preserve all original content word-for-word. That includes punctuation, line breaks? We cannot use
. We'll need to represent line breaks via tags. So each paragraph becomes a
. For list items, we need
- . The original list items have text inside
tags; we need to extract the text and put inside
- . Also need to preserve the bullet points exactly as they appear.
We must not add any extra content. Must not remove any content. Must preserve original wording exactly.
We need to strip out all HTML tags and styles, leaving only the text. Then we need to reconstruct using semantic HTML.
Let's extract the text.
First part:
Education: LLB and admission as attorney or advocate. Masters advantageous.
Text: Education: LLB and admission as attorney or advocate. Masters advantageous.
Next:

. We could output an empty . However they said use for introductory paragraphs and general text. An empty paragraph is still a paragraph. Might be okay. But maybe we can ignore because it's just formatting. However "preserve ALL original content word-for-word" suggests we should keep it. But outputting an empty
adds no visible content, but it's still a tag. It might be acceptable. However they also said "If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in tags". So we should treat each
as a paragraph. The is a non-breaking space, which is content. If we output
that would preserve the space. But they said no
tags, but is okay inside . We could keep it.
But maybe simpler: we can collapse multiple empty paragraphs? That would be removing content. Safer to keep them as
. However they said no CSS classes, no inline styles, no , no
. Using is fine.
Let's continue.
Next: Experience: Minimum 8 years post articles experience including commercial law; experience in network infrastructure build and procurement; telecommunications industry advantageous.
Text: Experience: Minimum 8 years post articles experience including commercial law; experience in network infrastructure build and procurement; telecommunications industry advantageous.
Note there is a non-breaking space after colon: "Experience: " => we should preserve that as a space. So "Experience: " (a space). We'll keep as "Experience: ".
Next: Training: Systems, products and processes; ongoing legislative and regulatory training.
Text: Training: Systems, products and processes; ongoing legislative and regulatory training.

Then the figure/table.
Inside the table cell we have:

List items:
1. Procurement contracts
2. Network infrastructure build
3. ICT contracts
4. Participation in the formulation and management of intellectual property
5. Exposure to Consumer Protection Act, National Credit Act, WASPA Code, Electronic Communications and Transaction Act
6. Provision of legal and risk related advice
7. Provision of legal advice in respect of all Intellectual Property related matters
8. Regulatory environment (collaboration with regulatory advisors)
Note: there may be trailing spaces.
After the list, there is an empty paragraph:

Support MTN SA business functions; proactively identify legal risks; provide legal advice and opinions, advise, draft, negotiate and formalise contracts across the business; support Regulatory department; ensure legal compliance; oversee Legal Advisors; manage negotiations; review major agreements; maintain precedents; advise executive management on governance, regulation and legislative impacts; provide company secretarial support.
Note there is a
and after the paragraph. The
we must not include. The after
is a space? Actually it's "
" meaning a line break then a non-breaking space. We must not use
. We need to preserve the content word-for-word, but we cannot use
. However we can represent line breaks via tags. The
inside a paragraph is essentially a line break within the same paragraph. Since we cannot use
, we might need to treat it as a space? The instruction: "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
s, no
tags". So we must omit the
. But we must preserve all original content word-for-word. This is contradictory. However likely they expect us to strip the
and treat the space as part of the paragraph. The after
is a space; we can keep it as a regular space.
Thus we will output the paragraph text without the
. The text before
is: "Support MTN SA business functions; proactively identify legal risks; provide legal advice and opinions, advise, draft, negotiate and formalise contracts across the business; support Regulatory department; ensure legal compliance; oversee Legal Advisors; manage negotiations; review major agreements; maintain precedents; advise executive management on governance, regulation and legislative impacts; provide company secretarial support."
After
there is nothing else? Actually after
the closes. So there is a space after the line break. We'll just include a space at end? Probably not needed. We'll keep the text as is, ignoring the
and .

Likely each bold heading like Education:, Experience:, Training:, (Limited Duration Contract): SM - Commercial Legal, Strategic input:, Operational Planning and Process Enhancement:, Commercial Legal Support:, Reporting:, Supplier Relationship Management:, Customer Satisfaction:, Managerial / Supervisory Complexity:, Role Complexity:, Creativities:.
But the instruction: Use for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So we should treat those as headers. The list items under Strategic input: should be - . The paragraphs following each header should be

We also have the "(Limited Duration Contract): SM - Commercial Legal" which is like a job title? Could be considered a header as well. We'll treat as .
We need to preserve all original content word-for-word, including punctuation and spaces. So the header text must be exactly as appears.
