We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. The posting includes: description of role, responsibilities list, qualifications (college degree or experience, etc.), benefits listed, schedule (full-time schedule Monday through Friday). No explicit pay. So we should have sections: About the role (maybe a brief intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills (maybe combine?), Benefits, Schedule. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We can choose appropriate headings based on content. Avoid repeating job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove "How To Apply", "Ready to Lead..." etc. Keep substantive info. We need to preserve all substantive information: role description, responsibilities bullet list, qualifications bullet list, benefits bullet list, schedule statement. We need to format responsibilities as
  • . Same for qualifications/skills and benefits. We need to decide which headings to use. Could have:

    About the role

    ...

    Responsibilities

      ...

    Qualifications

      ...

    Benefits

      ...

    Schedule

    Full-time schedule, Monday through Friday.

    We might also include Skills but qualifications cover skills. Could combine but better to follow instruction: include a section only when posting has real specific content. Qualifications section includes college degree or experience, leadership experience, knowledge, etc. That's fine. We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to remove duplicated lines. Let's extract content. Original posting: Kirby Risk Electrical Supply Kirby Risk is seeking an Automation Team Manager to lead team.

The "Why Kirby Risk?" paragraph is somewhat fluff but still substantive about company culture; we could include under About the role or maybe a separate section? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could incorporate that into About the role. We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Already removed. Now craft HTML. We'll have:

    About the role

    Kirby Risk is seeking an Automation Team Manager to lead a team of Automation Consultants and Specialists, helping grow the Industrial Controls, Sensor & Safety, and Rockwell Automation business. The role involves providing leadership and direction, developing people, building customer relationships, partnering with sales teams to solve manufacturing challenges, driving growth, supporting customers, and delivering solutions that improve productivity, reliability, and workplace safety. Kirby Risk, founded in 1926, is a trusted leader in electrical supply and manufacturing with a culture built on hard‑working, engaged people who treat one another and customers with respect, integrity, and urgency, offering long‑term career growth opportunities.

    Then Responsibilities list. We need to split the responsibilities into bullet points. The text after "You Will" includes many items separated by periods but no bullet. We'll extract each sentence as a bullet. List: - Develop and execute annual business plans that align with company goals and growth initiatives. - Lead, coach, and develop Automation Consultants and Specialists to support individual and team success. - Drive sales growth across Industrial Controls, Sensor & Safety, and Rockwell Automation product lines. - Partner with account managers and sales leadership to identify opportunities, support target accounts, and win strategic projects. - Meet with customers to understand operational challenges and recommend practical automation solutions. - Monitor sales performance, market trends, and business opportunities to identify areas for growth. - Lead Rockwell Automation Quarterly Business Reviews and territory planning activities. - Build strong relationships with customers, supplier partners, and key stakeholders. - Provide technical guidance and support on complex automation opportunities. - Foster a culture centered on accountability, teamwork, customer service, and continuous improvement. - Support recruiting, onboarding, performance management, and employee development efforts. Now Qualifications (What Makes You a Great Fit) bullet list: - College degree or 5+ years of relevant industrial automation, sales, or leadership experience - Proven leadership and people development experience - Strong knowledge of Industrial Controls, Sensor & Safety, and Automation Solutions - Experience working with manufacturing, industrial, OEM, or process customers preferred - Demonstrated success achieving sales goals and driving business growth - Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills - Strong organizational, planning, and decision-making abilities - Ability to analyze data and develop strategies to improve sales performance - Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications and CRM platforms - Goal-oriented, self-motivated, and committed to delivering results Now Benefits bullet list: - Medical, RX, Dental, and Vision insurance - Life insurance & Employee Assistance Programs - Tuition reimbursement & on-the-job training - 401(k) plan with company match & Profit Sharing - Paid Time Off (PTO) Now Schedule: Full-time schedule, Monday through Friday. We could also include travel requirement under What To Expect In This Role: "Travel throughout the assigned territory as needed." That's substantive; we could add to About the role or a separate section like "Travel". But we have no heading for travel; we could incorporate into About the role paragraph or Responsibilities? It's under What To Expect In This Role, which is more about role expectations. Could add a paragraph under About the role or maybe a separate section "What to Expect". But instruction says use headings from list; we could add a section "What to Expect" but not in the list. Better to incorporate into About the role or Responsibilities? It's about expectations: leadership responsibility, collaboration, opportunities to influence, supportive environment, travel. Could add a paragraph after About the role. We'll add a paragraph under About the role covering those expectations. Thus About the role paragraph will include: leadership responsibility for growing automation business, collaboration with customers/suppliers/internal teams, opportunities to influence business strategy and team development, supportive team‑oriented environment focused on customer success and professional growth, travel throughout assigned territory as needed. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat any info unnecessarily. Let's craft final HTML. We must output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's produce:
