We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning. So remove the equal opportunity paragraph at end. Also remove any duplicated lines. Also remove application instructions (like "If you need assistance...").
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections apply.
We have content:
- Intro: "This is a fully remote role that requires traveling to client sites for in-person consultations Get to know us Ideals is a global B2B SaaS product company recognized as the most highly rated and customer-centric brand in the secure business collaboration market. Trusted by over 2,000,000 users from 175,000 companies globally, we help people run high-stakes processes and make important decisions with less stress, higher quality, and shorter hours. Ideals Virtual Data Room (VDR): Secure document sharing and collaboration for due diligence, fundraising, corporate reporting, licensing, clinical trials, and other complex transactions."
That's about the company and role. Could be "About the role" or "About the company". Use "About the role" heading.
- Then "The role To support the rapid expansion..." This is more about responsibilities. Could be part of responsibilities.
- "Compensation package: 55% base salary; 45% performance-based variable." That's Pay.
- "Why Ideals?" includes high trust, Great Place To Work, Sales Enablement, growth opportunity, proven track record. That could be Benefits or maybe "About the company". But we have Benefits section for perks etc. We'll treat "Why Ideals?" as Benefits? Actually Benefits are remote-first flexibility, home workplace budget, etc. So "Why Ideals?" is more about company strengths; could be "About the company". But we already have About the role. Could combine.
Better to have sections: About the role (company overview + role description), Responsibilities (what you will do), Requirements (what you bring), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements? but we can combine), Skills (maybe separate?), Benefits (what we offer), Pay (compensation), Schedule (maybe remote-first flexibility? but schedule not specified; we have remote-first flexibility but not schedule specifics. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Schedule: we have "Remote-first flexibility to shape your ideal workday" which is about schedule flexibility. Could be considered schedule. But we need to see if we have explicit schedule info: "Remote-first flexibility to shape your ideal workday" implies flexible schedule. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
But we must not create sections with filler like "not specified". We have actual content for schedule: remote-first flexibility.
Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not using job title.
We need to use

We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not using job title.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities list, we need to convert sentences into list items. Similarly for requirements list, benefits list.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to remove boilerplate: equal opportunity paragraph, maybe also "Discover more." and "Our culture" maybe keep? The culture section is substantive? It describes core values. Could be part of About the role or Benefits? It's not a list but prose. We can keep as paragraph under About the role or separate section? There's no heading for culture; we could include as part of About the role paragraph.
We need to remove duplicated lines. Not seeing duplicates.
We need to remove application instructions: the paragraph about accommodation etc. Remove.
Now craft HTML.
First, About the role: combine company overview and role description.

Next Requirements: from "What you bring" plus maybe "Nice to have". We'll separate required vs nice? But we can combine as list with required items and note nice to have as separate?
