We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Directive" (company description) then "Role Summary", "Key Responsibilities", "Success Metrics (KPIs)", "Who You Are" with subsections Experience & Background, Core Competencies, Cultural Fit & Traits, then "What We Offer" includes salary, benefits, etc. Also "Work Environment Requirements". Need to use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to map sections accordingly. We should not repeat job title. We need to include sections only if real content. We need to decide which headings to use: "About the role" could correspond to Role Summary? Or maybe "About Directive" is company description; but heading list includes "About the role". We could use "About the role" for Role Summary. "Responsibilities" for Key Responsibilities. "Requirements" maybe for Experience & Background? Or "Qualifications" for Experience & Background? "Skills" for Core Competencies? "Benefits" for What We Offer benefits. "Pay" for salary range. "Schedule" maybe not present (remote-first, work from home office). Could include schedule? Not explicit schedule like hours. Might omit. We must not create sections with placeholder text. So include only those with content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit details. Must include all content from posting except boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc). We need to remove EEO statement at end (the "Additional Information" about diversity). Also remove "If you require reasonable accommodations..." maybe that's part of EEO? It's about accommodations; might be considered boilerplate? It's not exactly EEO but could be considered legal. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove the accommodation request line and the EEO statement. Also remove "Due to the nature of this role, you must be able to remain stationary..." maybe that's part of Work Environment Requirements; keep it as it's substantive. We need to keep "Work Environment Requirements" content. We need to format lists with
  • . For prose use

    . We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's extract content: Company description: "About Directive Directive Consulting is the leading B2B marketing agency for brands that are serious about the metrics that matter most. With over a decade of expertise and 420+ B2B brands under our belt, we've earned our reputation on real outcomes. We run through 3 divisions: Performance, Communications, and Commerce, all wired to share intelligence and answer to revenue.

If you're ready to explore future opportunities and be part of a team that values creativity, strategy, and results, we’d love to connect with you!" That's a lot; we can keep as prose under maybe "About the company"? But heading list doesn't have "About the company". Could use "About the role" for role summary only. But we have company description; maybe we can include it under a heading like "About Directive"? Not in allowed headings list but we could still use

    for any section heading? The instruction: "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exclusive; we can use other headings? Probably we should stick to those examples. But we need to include company description somewhere. Could put it under "About the role"? That might be inaccurate but acceptable? Might be better to create a heading "About the company" but not in list; risk. However instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. ...). It implies we should use those headings for sections; but we could also use other headings if needed? Safer to follow examples: we can use "About the role" for role summary, and maybe we can incorporate company description into that section as part of role summary? But role summary is separate. Could we put company description under "About the role" as a preamble? Might be okay. Alternatively, we could omit company description? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it. Thus we need a heading for company description. Could use "About Directive" as heading, though not in examples but still a heading. The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, just gives examples. So we can use

    About Directive

    . That seems fine. Proceed. Now sections: - About Directive (company description) - About the role (Role Summary) - Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities) - Requirements (maybe Experience & Background + Core Competencies + Cultural Fit & Traits? Could split into Qualifications and Skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Experience & Background under "Requirements", Core Competencies under "Skills", Cultural Fit & Traits maybe also under "Requirements" or "Skills". But we need to preserve all detail; we can keep them as subheadings? Not allowed? We could use

    for each subheading but that may be many thin sections. Better to combine into logical sections: "Experience and Background" (maybe under Requirements), "Core Competencies" (Skills), "Cultural Fit" (maybe also under Requirements). But we need to avoid creating sections with filler. All have content. We could do:

    Requirements

    containing Experience & Background and Core Competencies and Cultural Fit as paragraphs/lists. But we need to use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For Experience & Background we have bullet-like sentences but not explicit list; they are separate sentences. Could format as
      • each bullet. Similarly Core Competencies list. Cultural Fit & Traits list. We'll need to decide. Also Success Metrics (KPIs) could be a section maybe "Success Metrics" or "KPIs". Not in examples but we can use

        Success Metrics

        . What We Offer includes salary, benefits, etc. We can split into Pay and Benefits. Pay: salary range. Benefits: list of benefits. Work Environment Requirements: maybe under "Work Environment" or "Schedule"? Not exactly schedule. Could use

        Work Environment

        . We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state salary range and benefits, so we can include Pay and Benefits. Schedule: not explicitly stated; we have remote-first, ability to work from home office, but not schedule like hours. Could omit Schedule section. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title. Let's extract each piece. Company description (About Directive): keep as is.
