• . No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
  , no
  . Must preserve original content word-for-word, no addition, removal, summarizing, rephrasing. So we need to parse the given HTML (which is raw text with

  etc) and convert to proper semantic HTML using only allowed tags. We must keep all content exactly as is, but we can change tags: we need to replace

  tags with

  (they are okay). However we need to replace tags with

  for section headers. The original uses for headings like "Mission/ Core purpose of the Job", "Education", "Experience", "Skills", "Key Activities & Responsibilities". Also there are subheadings like "FinTech Governance and Compliance", etc. Those should become

  as well? The instruction: Use

  for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So any heading should be

  . The subheadings under Key Activities & Responsibilities are also section headers? They could be considered sub-sections; but we only have

  allowed. We could still use

  for them. There's no restriction against multiple

  . So we will convert each ... to

  ...

  . Also need to convert list items: The responsibilities are currently each line starting with a bold? Actually after each subheading, there are lines like "Implement and enforce compliance frameworks specifically for FinTech products such as mobile money platforms." They are not wrapped in list tags. We need to convert them to

  • for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills). The instruction: Use
    • for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills). So we need to detect lists. The original text has paragraphs with multiple sentences each on separate lines? Actually after each subheading, there are lines each ending with a period and a line break (maybe
      ). In the given raw text, after each subheading there is a line break and then sentences each on new line but not wrapped in
    • . We need to convert each sentence (or each line) into
    • . However we must preserve original content word-for-word, meaning we cannot add or remove words, but we can change tags. So we can wrap each line in
    • tags, but we must keep the text exactly same. Also need to ensure we don't add extra punctuation. We also need to handle the Education, Experience, Skills sections: they have lines like "Minimum of 3 year degree/diploma in Information Technology, Computer Science, Law, Finance, or related field." and "Professional certifications in Information Security (CISA) or Governance/Risk Compliance (CISM, CRISC) advantageous." Those are separate lines after the heading. Should we convert them to
      • ? Probably yes, as they are qualifications/requirements. The instruction says use
        • for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills). So we should convert each line after those headings into list items. Similarly for Skills: each bullet line. Also note there is an ampersand escaped: "&" in "Key Activities & Responsibilities". We must preserve that exactly. So the heading text should be "Key Activities & Responsibilities". When we convert to

          , we need to keep the inner HTML exactly, including the & entity. So

          Key Activities & Responsibilities

          . Also there is a stray " " after Skills section: "

          Skills
          ...
           

          " That's a non-breaking space. We need to preserve it exactly. It appears as " " inside a

          . We'll keep it as is, but we need to remove
          tags (not allowed). We must not use
          . So we need to replace
          with nothing? But we must preserve content word-for-word; we cannot remove the
          because that would be removing content. However the instruction says: "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no

          s, no
          tags". So we must not output
          tags. But we also must preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase. This is contradictory: we cannot keep
          tags because they are not allowed. We need to interpret: we must not use
          tags in output, but we must preserve the textual content (the visible text). The
          tags are formatting artifacts; they are not part of the content. The instruction earlier said "Remove all of the following: ... Stray numbers or formatting artifacts". In the first part (job listing editor) they said remove formatting artifacts. In this second task, they say "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". However they also say "No ...
          tags". So we must treat
          as formatting artifact to be removed, but we must preserve the textual content (the words). So we should strip
          tags and replace with appropriate block-level tags (like

          or list items). Since we cannot use
          , we will treat line breaks as paragraph breaks. Thus we need to parse the input, remove
          tags, and convert to appropriate HTML using only

          ,

          ,

          • . Also we must remove any

            tags that are empty or just contain  ? The " " after Skills section is inside a

            with just  . That's a formatting artifact; we should probably remove that empty paragraph. But we must preserve content; the   is not meaningful content. Likely we should drop it. Also there is a stray " " after Skills section before closing

            . We'll just omit that paragraph. Now we need to produce final HTML. Let's extract the content. Original text (with tags):

            We need to convert. Approach: treat each

            as a block. Inside, we may have headings. We'll replace with

            . Remove
            tags, but we need to know where to split into list items. Simplify: We'll produce HTML as follows: - First paragraph: heading "Mission/ Core purpose of the Job" as

            , then the following sentences as

            paragraphs? The original had two

            blocks: first block with heading and first paragraph; second block with continuation paragraph. We'll combine? The instruction: preserve content word-for-word. We could keep them as separate

            tags. That's fine. Thus:

            Mission/ Core purpose of the Job

            The Senior Specialist: FinTech LISO plays a vital role in ensuring the secure, compliant, and efficient operation of MTN SA's FinTech ecosystem from a legal, information security, and operational governance perspective.

            Note: we removed the   line. Now Key Activities & Responsibilities heading:

            Key Activities & Responsibilities

            Then subheadings each as

            and then list items. We need to decide: Should subheadings also be

            ? Yes. Thus:

            • Support FinTech audit preparations by organising required documentation and addressing audit queries.

            FinTech Training and Awareness: There is no heading for this; it's just a paragraph after the previous

            . In the original, after the Reporting and Documentation paragraph, there is a

            containing "FinTech Training and Awareness
            Deliver FinTech-focused compliance and security training to FinTech business and IT teams.
            Drive awareness campaigns on FinTech risks, controls, and regulatory requirements to foster a culture of secure and compliant FinTech operations". There's no heading bold. So we need to treat "FinTech Training and Awareness" as a heading? It's not bolded but appears as a line before the
            . It could be considered a section header. The instruction says use

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