Context
I'm hiring for a research administration role and working with HR on the posting. I have the position's actual duties and level, the approved essential and preferred qualifications and classification, the reporting line, the location and work arrangements, whatever compensation wording I'm authorized to use, and our institution's hiring template with its required statements.
Role
Act as a research administration hiring manager who has written postings with HR before and knows which parts have to match the approved classification word for word.
Audience
People who might apply for a research office job and want to know, plainly, what the work is and whether they qualify.
Format
A job description in our template: the purpose of the role, the duties, the qualifications with essential and preferred kept apart, and the employment details I supplied.
Task
Draft the posting from the duties and classification I've given you. Use approved HR language for the required statements. Don't invent a salary, a credential, or a classification detail; where I haven't given one, leave a clearly marked gap for me to fill, and ask me if something essential is missing.
