AVP, Warehouse Operations

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Sotheby's" (company description) then "THE ROLE" then responsibilities, then "Ideal Experience & Competencies". Also salary info. Benefits? It mentions "competitive benefits package" but not specifics. According to rules: include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. "competitive benefits package" is vague, not specific; we should not create Benefits section unless specifics given. Pay: they gave salary range $90,000-120,000. That's specific, so we can include Pay section. Schedule: not mentioned, so no Schedule. We need headings:

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use these exact headings? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those headings when appropriate. We have content for About the role? The posting includes "About Sotheby's" which is company overview, not exactly "About the role". But we could treat that as "About the role"? Might be better to use "About the company"? But instruction says use those headings; we can use "About the role" for the description of the role? Actually there is a section "THE ROLE" which describes the role. That could be "About the role". Then responsibilities: we have a list under Responsibilities. Then Ideal Experience & Competencies could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications" or "Skills". We need to decide. We have salary info for Pay. We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information; remove boilerplate like EEO, privacy notices, equal opportunity statements, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract substantive content: Company description: "About Sotheby's Established in 1744, Sotheby’s promotes access and ownership of exceptional art and luxury objects through auctions, private sales and retail. Our deep expertise across 70 selling categories is supported by a leading technology platform and a global network of specialists spanning 40 countries. Selling categories include Contemporary Art, Modern and Impressionist Art, Old Masters, Chinese Works of Art, Jewelry, Watches, Wine and Spirits and Design, as well as collectible cars and real estate through RM Sotheby’s and Concierge. Sotheby’s Financial Services is a leading art lender and provides capital solutions for collectors around the world, having originated more than $12 billion in loans since its inception. Sotheby’s new global headquarters is now open at the iconic Breuer building at 945 Madison Avenue in New York City." That's substantive. Role description: "The AVP, Gantry Warehouse Operations is responsible for the overall operation of Gantry and for ensuring the safe, efficient and timely handling, movement, storage and release of property across the site. The role provides visible day-to-day leadership to the warehouse operation, setting priorities across receiving, storage, shuttle and cross-dock activity, packing, client collection and outbound movement, while coordinating property flow and shared handling resources across the building. As Gantry has grown in volume and complexity, it has become a critical operating hub supporting the broader New York property lifecycle, including increasingly frequent movement between Gantry and the Breuer. The AVP will ensure the site operates as one coordinated end-to-end warehouse, with clear priorities, effective use of space and labor, strong property-protection standards and consistent operating discipline. The role requires a strong combination of warehouse and logistics leadership, people management and operational judgment. The AVP will lead and develop the onsite management and handling teams, proactively resolve operational issues, maximize warehouse capacity and work closely with Central Planning & Logistics, Photography, Exhibitions, Client Experience, Seller Operations, Facilities, Security and Risk Management to ensure smooth execution across the property lifecycle. The AVP will also lead the implementation and ongoing governance of the Gantry space and workflow redesign, ensuring improvements to layout, staging, storage, safety and property flow are successfully embedded into the day-to-day operation." Responsibilities list: bullet points after "Responsibilities". They are sentences concatenated without periods? Let's extract each: - Own the day-to-day operation and overall condition of Gantry, including property flow, labor deployment, space utilization, safety, housekeeping and operating performance. - Establish building-wide operating priorities and resolve congestion, space conflicts and competing demands across functional areas. - Own day-to-day space utilization, staging, storage allocation and warehouse capacity execution. - Establish and enforce consistent standards for property handling, high-value and fragile property, staging, storage, cart movement and end-of-shift reset. - Strengthen employee management through labor planning, coaching, performance management, training and clearer supervisor routines. - Work closely with Receiving, Central Planning & Logistics, Photography and other functional teams operating within Gantry to coordinate property flow, shared labor, staging and site priorities while maintaining clear functional ownership. - Execute operational plans developed in partnership with Warehouse Planning & Logistics, providing operational feedback, resource requirements and execution updates to support future planning and readiness activities in particular Marquee and property movement related to Capital Projects. - Partner with Photography to ensure property moves efficiently through the studios while maintaining clear ownership of shared space, staging and handling resources. - Partner with Facilities, Security and Risk Management on floor condition, CCTV coverage, equipment, emergency access and other site controls. - Review damage, safety and operational trends and ensure corrective actions are implemented, communicated and sustained. - Support clear ownership between Operations and Facilities for site services, equipment and building-related responsibilities. - Maintain close coordination with Breuer operations to support efficient shuttle, cross-dock and exhibition-related property movement. Ideal Experience & Competencies list: - 7-10 year experience leading warehouse, cross-dock or other complex physical operations; experience with art, luxury goods or other high-value and fragile property strongly preferred. - Proven people leader with experience managing supervisors, frontline teams and multiple operating workstreams. - Strong understanding of warehouse flow, space utilization, staging, storage, labor deployment and operational safety. - Demonstrated ability to improve operations while maintaining service levels in a high-volume, fast-moving environment. - Strong judgment and ability to prioritize competing demands, resolve operational issues and make decisions quickly. - Effective cross-functional leader able to work across Logistics, Photography, Facilities, Security, Risk, Client Experience and other business teams. - Strong focus on property protection, employee safety, operating discipline and continuous improvement. - Visible, hands-on leadership style with a willingness to spend significant time on the floor and engage directly with teams. Pay: "The proposed base salary for this position ranges from $90,000-120,000. In addition to base salary successful candidates are eligible to receive a discretionary bonus, as well as a competitive benefits package. Salary offers are based on a wide range of factors including relevant skills, training, experience, education, and, where applicable, licensure or certifications obtained. Market and organizational factors are also considered." We can include Pay section with that info (maybe summarizing base salary range and discretionary bonus). Benefits: we have only "competitive benefits package" no specifics, so we should not create Benefits section. Schedule: none. We need sections: About the role? Could use "About the role" for the role description paragraph. Or "About Sotheby's" maybe not in list but we could still use "About the role" heading for role description. The company description could be placed under a heading like "About the company" but not in allowed list. However instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to stick to those headings. We can treat company description as part of "About the role"? Might be odd but acceptable. Alternatively we could omit company description? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it somewhere. Could put it under a heading like "About Sotheby's" but that's not in the list; but instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. ...). It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, but we should prefer those. However to be safe, we could use "About the role" heading and include both company overview and role description under it. That would preserve all info. Then Responsibilities heading with ul list. Then Requirements or Qualifications heading for Ideal Experience & Competencies. Which heading is more appropriate? The list includes experience and competencies; could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". We'll pick "Requirements". Or we could have both "Requirements" and "Skills". But we have only one list; we can put under "Requirements". Use

Requirements

. Pay heading:

Pay

with p containing salary info. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, privacy notices, equal opportunity statements. Remove those. Now construct HTML:
