Branch Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job posting. Let's extract content: Title: Branch Manager (Michigan City, IN) – not needed as heading. "Why Join Us?" could be About the role? Actually "Why Join Us?" is a section describing company and role. Could map to "About the role". We'll include that. Then "What You'll Do" with bullet points: Grow Sales & Market Share – ...; Lead & Develop Your Team – ...; Run Efficient Operations – ...; Engage with Customers – ...; Stay Competitive – ...; Foster a Culture of Success – ... These are responsibilities. Then "Other Essential Functions" list: A proven sales leader with experience in building materials, wholesale distribution, industrial supply, furniture sales, construction supply, or similar industries. A strong communicator who can connect with customers in a direct, practical way. A team builder with experience hiring, training, and developing employees. An operations-minded leader who understands cost control, inventory management, and compliance. Must be comfortable using business management software and Microsoft Office. A valid driver’s license is required These could be Requirements or Qualifications. Then "Experience": Bachelor’s degree in business or related field OR equivalent experience. Experience in a B2B or contractor-facing environment is a big plus. These could be Qualifications. Then "Benefits": Competitive salary & performance-based bonus Benefits include sign-on bonus, medical, dental, 401k with company match, car allowance, gas card and other incentives. Relocation assistance available A strong company culture with family values and long-term career growth. Opportunity to directly impact our company’s strategic direction through innovative decision-making. Collaborative environment where you can contribute your expertise and make a difference. An opportunity to make a real impact—lead, grow, and succeed with a company that values your expertise. These are benefits. Pay: Not explicitly given; only "Competitive salary & performance-based bonus". That's a mention of pay but not specific number. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "Competitive salary & performance-based bonus". That's a statement about pay, albeit vague. Should we include Pay section? The rule says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state competitive salary & performance-based bonus, which is a statement about pay. So we could include a Pay section with that sentence. However they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might combine Pay into Benefits? But they have separate headings for Benefits and Pay. Since we have benefits content, we could keep Benefits section and maybe not separate Pay because it's vague. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state competitive salary & performance-based bonus, which is about pay. So we could include Pay section with that sentence. But then Benefits section would have other benefits. Might be okay. Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit Schedule. Now we need to remove duplicated lines: The posting repeats some paragraphs about company description twice. We need to preserve substantive info but not duplicate. So we should include company description once. Also remove application instructions like "Ready to take the next step? Apply today..." etc. Also remove hashtags, etc. Also remove "Terms and Conditions / Privacy Policy" etc. Also remove military veteran statement? That's EEO/boilerplate? It's about hiring veterans; could be considered EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove the military veteran hiring statement. Also remove duplicated company description. Now we need to structure. Potential sections:

About the role

(maybe combine Why Join Us? and company description). Provide paragraph(s) about role and company.

Responsibilities

with

• items for each bullet.

  Requirements

  (or Qualifications). We have "Other Essential Functions" which are requirements. Also "Experience" could be qualifications. Could combine into Requirements. We could have

  Requirements

  with list items.

  Benefits

  with list. Optionally

  Pay

  with sentence. We must not repeat job title as heading. Let's craft. About the role paragraph: Combine "Why Join Us? At Richards Building Supply, we don’t just sell building materials—we build relationships. As a Branch Manager, you’ll have the autonomy to run your branch like your own business. From driving sales and mentoring your team to ensuring operational excellence, you’ll be at the forefront of a fast-paced, results-oriented environment." plus company description: "Richards Building Supply is a wholesale building material distributor serving 15 states with over 65 locations! As a family owned, operated and focused company, Richards Building Supply has spent nearly 50 years building a thriving and profitable organization, as well as invaluable business relationships. Richards stocks a comprehensive line of products such as residential and commercial roofing, siding, windows, decking, soffit, doors, molding, rainware, cabinets, and more!" We need to deduplicate: there are two versions with slightly different numbers (15 states/65 locations/nearly 50 years vs 12 states/60 locations/last 40 years). Which to keep? Both are substantive but contradictory. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. If there are conflicting statements, we must keep both? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include both statements, maybe as separate sentences. However that could be seen as duplication but they are not identical; they differ. We'll include both. Thus About the role could have two paragraphs: first the Why Join Us? then company description (maybe combine both versions). We'll include both versions as separate sentences. Now Responsibilities: list each bullet. We need to extract bullet points exactly: - Grow Sales & Market Share – Develop and implement sales strategies to expand our customer base, collaborating with your Team contributing to increased sales and profitability. - Lead & Develop Your Team – Hire, train, and mentor a high performing team that drives significant business growth while delivering exceptional customer service. - Run Efficient Operations – Oversee inventory, cost control, budgeting, and compliance to ensure smooth branch performance. - Engage with Customers – Build strong relationships with contractors and business owners offering programs designed to grow their business in all market conditions. - Stay Competitive – Monitor industry trends, competitors, and market conditions to keep the branch ahead of the curve while staying connected with your customers on what is needed to keep them relevant in the market. - Foster a Culture of Success – Maintain a professional, customer-focused environment aligned with our core values Note: Some have odd phrasing; we keep as is. Now Requirements: list from Other Essential Functions: - A proven sales leader with experience in building materials, wholesale distribution, industrial supply, furniture sales, construction supply, or similar industries. - A strong communicator who can connect with customers in a direct, practical way. - A team builder with experience hiring, training, and developing employees. - An operations-minded leader who understands cost control, inventory management, and compliance. - Must be comfortable using business management software and Microsoft Office. - A valid driver’s license is required Now Experience/Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in business or related field OR equivalent experience. - Experience in a B2B or contractor-facing environment is a big plus. We could put these under Requirements as well, or separate Qualifications. Since we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed, we could split: Requirements = Other Essential Functions; Qualifications = Experience. But the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Might combine into one Requirements section. However we have both headings available; we could keep just one section called Requirements that includes all. That would be fewer sections. Let's do that: one Requirements section containing both lists. Now Benefits: list: - Competitive salary & performance-based bonus - Benefits include sign-on bonus, medical, dental, 401k with company match, car allowance, gas card and other incentives. - Relocation assistance available - A strong company culture with family values and long-term career growth. - Opportunity to directly impact our company’s strategic direction through innovative decision-making. - Collaborative environment where you can contribute your expertise and make a difference. - An opportunity to make a real impact—lead, grow, and succeed with a company that values your expertise. Note: The first bullet "Competitive salary & performance-based bonus" could be considered Pay; but we keep in Benefits. Now Pay: If we want separate Pay section, we could extract that sentence. But we already included it in Benefits; maybe better to have Pay section with that sentence and Benefits without it. However the rule: prefer few sections. Having both Pay and Benefits may be thin. But we have substantive benefits list; Pay is just one sentence. Could combine. Given the instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state competitive salary & performance-based bonus, which is about pay. So we could create Pay section with that sentence. Benefits section then would have the rest. That yields two sections, both substantive enough. Let's do that. Pay section:

  Competitive salary & performance-based bonus

  Benefits section: list the rest. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Ready to take the next step? Apply today..." etc. Remove. Also remove duplicated lines like the repeated company description and veteran statements. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

  But that repeats almost same content with different numbers. Might be considered duplication but they are not identical; still could be considered redundant. However instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep both statements. Even if they are similar, we keep both. Now Responsibilities:
