Associate Director, Channel Strategy Planning & Operations Cooking Aids & Mini Meals US

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. We need to parse the job posting. We have location line: "Location: Hoboken, NJ (Hybrid)" - we can fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Likely include location in a

. Job Purpose paragraph: we can include as

maybe under About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need headings for sections we include. We need to decide which sections have content. We have "Job Purpose" paragraph describing role. Could be "About the role". We'll put

About the role

then

with that purpose. Then "Primary Responsibilities And Deliverables" is a big block with bullet-like sentences. We'll put

Responsibilities

then

• each responsibility. Then "WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO SUCCEED" includes qualifications, skills, etc. We can split into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills maybe. But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine into one

  Qualifications

  with list. But we also have separate "Pay:" line, "Benefits:" paragraph. So include Pay and Benefits sections. Schedule not mentioned, so omit. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. We'll cut after benefits paragraph maybe before EEO. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content. Location: "Location: Hoboken, NJ (Hybrid)" -> we can put

  Location: Hoboken, NJ (Hybrid)

  maybe at top. Job Purpose paragraph: Starting after "Job Purpose".
