Business Development Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Regulated Industries" etc. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include a section only when posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role (maybe "About Regulated Industries" and description). Responsibilities: many bullet points. Requirements: maybe "Required Skills & Experience". Qualifications: maybe "Preferred Experience". Skills: maybe "Core Competencies". Benefits: present. Pay: present (Base Pay $100k-$120k). Schedule: not present (no schedule info). So we omit Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Location - Candidates must reside in State advertised..." that's location info; maybe we can keep location as a short paragraph? The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." Location is minor metadata; we can include as a

maybe under a generic section? But we only have defined sections; we could include location in a

after the heading? Probably we can include location as a

under a generic section like "About the role" or separate? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could include location as a

within the "About the role" section or maybe a separate short

before sections. But we must output only HTML fragment; we can include a

for location before sections. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all bullet points etc. We need to format lists with

• . For prose use

  . We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: Could include the initial paragraph about Business Development Manager responsibilities and "About Regulated Industries". Also maybe location? But location is separate. Responsibilities: The "Key Responsibilities" section with subheadings like Job Overview, Business Development & Revenue Growth, Customer Discovery & Consultative Selling, Executive Relationship Management, Market & Industry Leadership, Collaboration & Commercial Excellence. We can combine all bullet points under Responsibilities. Requirements: Could be "Required Skills & Experience". That's a list of required skills. Qualifications: Could be "Preferred Experience". That's a list. Skills: Could be "Core Competencies". That's a list. Benefits: The "Benefits Amazing benefits! (Seriously!)" paragraph plus bullet list? Actually it's a paragraph with bullet-like sentences. We'll treat as

  • items. Pay: Base Pay $100,000 - $120,000 / year plus note about variable incentives. We'll put in

    . We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, Covid Vaccination, Recruitment Agencies, etc. Also remove "Life at RWS", "RWS Values", "For further information..." etc. Also remove "Success Profile"? That's substantive? It's a description of ideal candidate; could be part of About the role or Qualifications? Might be considered substantive but maybe we can incorporate into About the role or Qualifications. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep that Success Profile text somewhere. Could be part of About the role or Qualifications. Let's put it under About the role as additional prose. Also "Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)" is substantive; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section? But we only have defined headings; we could include under Responsibilities as a subsection? But we cannot add new headings besides the allowed ones. We could incorporate KPIs as a

    under Responsibilities. We must not include duplicated lines. Let's extract content.
