Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
<p>I have implemented some javascript on my site but I keep getting the following error messages: Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined and Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token &lt;</p>

<p>This is the javascript that I am using in the header.php:</p>

                                        When you say “team player,” you may mean something different than any other client;
                                        it depends on you and on the culture of your firm. That is why 6Vision never takes
                                        the mandate at face value – we ensure we understand precisely the brief. We listen
                                        and consider very carefully so we can be sensitive to both sides. Our understanding
                                        of your company’s needs is as critical as our understanding of the targeted executives
                                        expectations. Both will come into play during the final decision-making process.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;
                                &lt;div class="seperator"&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;
                                &lt;a href="#" class="acc_trigger"&gt;Creativity&lt;/a&gt;

                                        It’s an added value we bring to our clients. Because our expertise spans many different
                                        disciplines, we can serve as your consultant, keeping you in touch with important
                                        findings, trends that may affect your company. More importantly, our broad knowledge
                                        and resources bring new ideas to each retained executive search. This kind of approach
                                        leads us to look beyond the usual suspects – enabling us to discover rigorously
                                        qualified professionals whom you might not otherwise uncover.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;
                                &lt;div class="seperator"&gt;

                                        How does an artist know how to blend oils and colours on a canvas? It’s innate,
                                        like the ability to visualise the way an empty room looks furnished. At 6Vision,
                                        the intuitive faculty touches many aspects of our Modus Operandi: our ability to
                                        sense the cultural fit of your company…to correctly judge the characters of various
                                        executives…to see how a strategic hire may be infused into the organisation. The
                                        intuition of our consulting staff is one of 6Vision important assets.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;
                                &lt;div class="seperator"&gt;

                                        Is what it takes to assess a professional's credentials, accomplishments and style
                                        and then weigh these against your unique needs. Not only do we have to know if the
                                        executive is appropriate but also what it will take to successfully conclude the
                                        deal. Judgment is the product of all the other skills plus experience. At 6Vision,
                                        our successful record demonstrates this simple fact: our clients respect our ability
                                        to make the best judgments.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;
                            &lt;/div&gt;

                                        Any scientist will tell you that you don’t find solutions to problems unless you
                                        ask the right questions. At 6Vision, our search begins with a comprehensive questionnaire.
                                        This technique, was developed and perfected over many years. It’s just one part
                                        of a rigorous methodology that our consultants adhere to and which ensures the thoroughness
                                        and accuracy of the process.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;

                                        Is the software of a search firm. It determines how a search will run: the ability
                                        to target professionals, the quality of the executives and the speed of the search.
                                        You can feel confident that our highly trained research staff has the proper tools
                                        and the knowledge to use them effectively. There is no single strategy that solves
                                        every problem – each search is customised.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;

                                        who will actively work on your assignment until it is successfully completed – and
                                        you can be sure that at least two people work on each assignment. This enables us
                                        to bring varied experience and viewpoints to your search and helps us complete the
                                        project within the expected time frame. Also, each search is personally supervised
                                        by a Director of the firm to assure adherence to the highest quality standards.&lt;/p&gt;

                                        As your partner, we share with you the knowledge we accumulate during the search
                                        process. Within a few weeks, as soon as we have explored the industry, the competition
                                        and the universe of professionals, we would provide you with an overview of our
                                        work to date. Together, we review this “map of the land” before proceeding to the
                                        next phase of the search. Throughout the search process, we invite your review and
                                        consultation. This way, we create a dialogue that enables us to reach a conclusion
                                        together.&lt;/p&gt;
                                &lt;/div&gt;

                                    We believe that context matters to successful executive search. Our Context Driven
                                    process is a rigorous approach to understanding each individual search assignment
                                    and how it relates to both the short and the long-term success of your business.
                                    Because we have successfully executed search assignments in local markets around
                                    the world, and have hands-on experience in each, we’re uniquely attuned to the nuances
                                    and intricacies of these key contexts.&lt;/p&gt;
                            &lt;/div&gt;

                                    Differences in markets, clients, business models, operating strategies and tactics,
                                    values and visions drive unique search criteria for top management. We take the
                                    time to understand how your business functions on a global, regional and local basis,
                                    and how these practices are likely to evolve, to ensure candidates match to your
                                    business context.&lt;/p&gt;

                                    Doing business internationally means bringing together people who may be worlds
                                    apart. That’s why we immerse ourselves in your firm’s culture to understand its
                                    character and the type of people who will be most likely to succeed within it. And
                                    with offices staffed by nationals, we can help you navigate local cultures and politics
                                    to your best advantage.&lt;/p&gt;

                                    We believe we can serve our clients better by treating professionals better—by understanding
                                    their needs and expectations. We handle their information with the greatest confidentiality,
                                    and keep them informed throughout. And we help them to better understand your firm
                                    to help ensure the position we’re offering is the right one for them.&lt;/p&gt;

                                    To attract top talent, you have to know the financial context in which an offer
                                    will be evaluated. We guide you in creating an offer that reflects the realities
                                    of local and global markets, and your firm’s resources. As financial considerations
                                    are only part of a package, we provide added perspective to help you assemble a
                                    competitive offer.&lt;/p&gt;
                            &lt;/div&gt;

                                    We share your goals and expectations and apply ourselves tenaciously and consistently
                                    exceed them. Our Context Driven process is, by its nature, built around your needs
                                    and an understanding of your organisation, its values, and way of working. As your
                                    representative in the very competitive global talent market, we help to shape positive
                                    images of your firm every time we engage in a search.&lt;/p&gt;
