We need to convert these to appropriate HTML tags: Use

    ? But they said use

    . Subheadings like "Core Supervision and Leadership" maybe also

    or could be

    with bold? But they said preserve all original content word-for-word, so we cannot change the text, only wrap tags.

    Applicant Types Accepted:

    Local Applicants Only We need to convert to HTML with

    ,

    ,
    • . No
      , no
      , no inline styles, no classes. We must preserve all text exactly. So we need to replace the original tags with appropriate ones while keeping the text. We need to decide which headings become

      . Likely each ...: and each ...: that is a section header. Also subheadings like Core Supervision and Leadership maybe also

      . But the instruction says use

      for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). It doesn't forbid using

      for other headings, but we should follow the pattern: major sections get

      . Subheadings could be

      with ? But we cannot add because we must preserve original content word-for-word, but we can wrap the text in tags? The original already has for bold. We could keep as is? But we are only allowed to use

      ,

      ,
      • . No other tags. So we cannot keep or or or . We must convert everything to only those allowed tags. However, we must preserve all original content word-for-word. That means we cannot lose the bold formatting; but we cannot add tags because they are not allowed. The instruction says "Use

        for introductory paragraphs and general text, Use

        for section headers, Use
        • for list items. No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
          s, no
          tags." It does not explicitly forbid other tags like or , but says "Use

          for introductory paragraphs and general text" and "Use

          for section headers" and "Use
          • for list items". It doesn't say we cannot use other tags, but the typical expectation is to only use those tags. However, the instruction says "Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." It didn't say we cannot use other tags. But earlier: "Use

            for introductory paragraphs and general text" implies that for general text we should use

            . For section headers use

            . For list items use
            • . It didn't say we cannot use or etc. But to be safe, we should only use those tags, and we must preserve the text word-for-word, meaning we cannot lose the bold formatting but we can represent bold text as plain text; the instruction says preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase. If we remove tags, we are removing markup but not the textual content. The textual content is the words; the bold is formatting, not content. So removing tags does not remove any words. So it's permissible to drop formatting tags as long as we keep the words. The instruction about preserving content likely refers to the textual content, not the markup. So we can strip , , , etc. and just output plain text within

              or

              or
            • . That seems acceptable. Thus we need to produce a clean HTML with only

              ,

              ,
              • . We'll need to decide which lines are headings. Let's extract the textual content in order, ignoring original tags. We'll go through the input and produce plain text lines. I'll copy the text and manually convert. Original text (with tags removed) in order: 1. "With 75 years of experience, our focus is on helping the most vulnerable children overcome poverty and experience fullness of life. We help children of all backgrounds, even in the most dangerous places, inspired by our Christian faith." 2. (blank line from

                maybe ignore) 3. "Come join our 31,000+ staff working in nearly 100 countries and share the joy of transforming vulnerable children’s life stories!" 4. (blank line? Actually after that there is

                then

                Employee Contract Type:

                then text "Local - Fixed Term Employee (Fixed Term)" then

                then

                Job Description:

                then etc.) Let's reconstruct sequentially. I'll parse the raw string:

                tags? The instruction: Use

                for introductory paragraphs and general text. So we can split the paragraph into two

                elements: one for first sentence, second for the "Come join..." line. The original had a line break between them. So we can make two

                tags. Then there is an empty

                which we can ignore (maybe produce an empty

                ? But better to ignore as it adds no content). We'll not add empty
