Anyone a MS Word expert?

I have a pesky extra page after some columns that won’t delete at all without screwing up the formatting of the columns just ahead of the blank page. There are various breaks that I’ve used in the document which are fine but there’s one at the end I think that is probably the cause of this whole mess which I can’t seem to delete. The last break is a Section Break (Next Page) with one empty line on a new page but deleting that section break causes my column formatting to go. Does anyone have any last suggestions on what to do to remove the page? I didn’t create the initial document or do it’s formatting otherwise I’m sure the solution would be super obvious. Trying not to keep the document as is if I can as it is my CV/resume for a job.

Here are the screen shots of my issue if that helps anyone solve this mystery

Extra page with one line of nothing on it basically (this is the page I'm trying to delete)

I was going to suggest deleting that last paragraph mark. Glad you got it fixed!!

that was one of the first things I tried. I think I ended up deleting a heading, copying and pasting one that worked then edited the heading so it said what I wanted it to, removed the columns and redid them, took out a couple of unnecessary section breaks. I'm not sure what out of that fixed it but at least its fixed cause this has happened on other versions of my resume that has very similar formatting and I ended up giving up and living with the extra page but this is literally the perfect job (I know I've said that before but this one really feels like it would be perfect for me even though its only a short term contract of about 6 months) so wanted to get it right if I could
