Buyer II - SDCA
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading; we don't have job title given. We need to parse the posting.
We need to extract sections: "General Purpose And Scope" maybe corresponds to About the role. Then "Authorities/Responsibilities" -> Responsibilities. Then "Qualifications/Knowledge/Experience" -> Qualifications (maybe also Requirements). Also "Additional Guidelines" maybe eligibility; could be Requirements? Also "DIRECTION EXERCISED", "DISCRETION EXERCISED", "LIAISES WITH", "Machines And Equipment Involved", "Physical Requirements", "WORK ENVIRONMENT", "SAFETY", "Compensation", "Equal Employment Commitment". We need to map to allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to include only those with real content. We have Compensation (Pay) content: Salary range $67,489.62 - $94,477.09 per year. So we can have Pay section.
We have Benefits? Not mentioned. So skip Benefits.
Schedule? Not mentioned. So skip Schedule.
Skills? Could be extracted from qualifications: Microsoft Office, etc. Could put under Skills.
Requirements? Could be eligibility guidelines: age, US Person, no felony convictions, drug screen, background check. Also maybe "Bachelor's Degree Required" etc. That's qualifications. But we have Qualifications section separate. We can put degree, experience, certifications under Qualifications. Requirements could be eligibility guidelines. Or we could combine. But we need to follow instruction: Use headings only when posting has real specific content. We'll create sections: About the role (General Purpose And Scope), Responsibilities (Authorities/Responsibilities), Qualifications (Qualifications/Knowledge/Experience plus maybe additional preferred work experience), Skills (Microsoft Office, ERP/MRP, etc.), Requirements (Additional Guidelines eligibility), Pay (Compensation). Possibly also include "Physical Requirements" but not allowed heading; we could put under Requirements? But we have only allowed headings list; we cannot create new headings like Physical Requirements. So we must either omit that info or incorporate into existing allowed headings if relevant. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should stick to those? Likely we should only use those headings. So we cannot add Physical Requirements heading. We could put physical requirements under Requirements or About the role? Might be okay to include under Requirements as part of eligibility? But it's not exactly eligibility. However we could include under Requirements as "Physical and work environment requirements". The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine.
Thus sections:
- About the role: General Purpose And Scope paragraph.
- Responsibilities: Authorities/Responsibilities bullet list.
- Qualifications: Bachelor's Degree Required, preferred degree, years experience, certifications, preferred work experience, etc.
- Skills: Microsoft Office, ERP/MRP systems, etc. Could also include reading blueprints, understanding UCC, FAR, etc.
- Requirements: Additional Guidelines eligibility (age, US Person, felony, drug screen, background check) plus maybe Physical Requirements and Work Environment and Safety? Could combine.
- Pay: Compensation salary range.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Remove Equal Employment Commitment etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, etc. Already not present.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from those sections.
We need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We must not repeat job title as heading; we don't have.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none.
We must output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content precisely.
General Purpose And Scope:
"Assure continuous availability of supplied components to meet future demand for globally used parts. Ensures plant needs and requirements are met while maintaining a high level of customer service. Performs the day to day responsibility for a buying desk in a specific commodity group within the Purchasing Department. Transactions at this level range from routine to complex, may involve moderately high dollar values and moderate levels of risk with heavy volume, and moderately complex commodities."
That's the paragraph.
Authorities/Responsibilities: It's a long list of duties. We need to preserve all details. We'll break into bullet points each sentence or clause.
Let's copy the text:
"Performs quoting, negotiating and issuing purchase orders $15M+ in value, in a timely manner, for raw materials, parts, subassemblies, finished goods, MRO materials, equipment, tooling, supplies and/or services from suppliers via purchase requisitions or MRP messages.Follows up with requestors and end users regarding purchase order due dates and status when inquiries are made.Follows traffic and logistics guidelines and minimizes the use of expedited shipping services where/when possible.Follows all supply chain policies, procedures, guidelines and instructions including those regarding the procurement of materials and particularly the ability to keep confidential information regarding all purchasing or commodity strategies confidential (and in some cases, within the supply chain function exclusively).Runs and maintains the buying desk’s purchase requisition or MRP open order, expedite, de-expedite, and past due reports and ensures MRP/IFS system is updated accordingly.Maintains on time deliverables i.e... milestones and SDRL’sAdditional order management i.e. ingot rate; two tier supplier setupWorks in cooperation with material planning, production planning and logistics to reduce part inventory, obsolete and slow moving materials and handle schedule changes.Strives to increase understanding of the services, material and manufacturing processes associated with the assigned buying desk.Responsible for supporting related departments with the resolution of supplier invoice discrepancies and non-conforming material, requisition issues etc.Represents the supplier inside Austal.Maintains close communication with supplier account and customer service personnel, and management levels if necessary, so as to minimize risk due to supplier capacity issues, plant shutdowns, and other day to day disruptions that may affect Austal and/or open purchase orders.Assists with supplier metrics and advises suppliers of their performance.Maintains professional relationships with suppliers on the assigned buying desk even in difficult times.Provides input on commodity strategies and related projects.Reviews statements of work when required.Purchases in both MRP and project/purchase requisition oriented type environments under Contractor Purchasing Systems Review guidelines.Assists other Buyers when required.Participates in plant continuous improvement, Lean Manufacturing, 5S, and other initiatives involving the plant Supply Chain function or assigned buying desk when appropriate.Is the main contact point for outside departments (e.g., Engineering, Accounting, etc.) as well as suppliers.Participates in price book activities.Other duties as assigned.Complies with Austal’s employee handbook general guidelines, company procedures and policies."
We need to split into sensible bullet points. We'll keep each sentence as a bullet.
Now Qualifications/Knowledge/Experience:
"Bachelor’s Degree Required, Degree in Business, Supply Chain or Material Management preferred.6 years related experience may be considered in lieu of degree2- years purchasing experience requiredExcellent time management skills as evidenced by the ability to adhere to deadlines while managing multiple priorities required.Basic to Intermediate level skills in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Power Point), Internet Explorer and Outlook required. Access skills preferred.New hires are required to successfully complete Austal Buyer II Certification within the first 90 days of hire.Incumbent individuals are required to complete the requisite courses required to be eligible for promotion to the corresponding levelsCertifications preferred: A.P.P., C.P.M., CPSM, CSCP, CPIM.Additional preferred work experience:Purchasing experience in a Contractor Purchasing System Review- U.S. defense environment.Material and service quoting, analyzing, negotiating, reporting and purchase order placement.Supplier rationalization activities (adding/removing suppliers and familiarity with Approved Supplier Lists, Bid Lists, and small business requirements);Order follow- up activities (expediting, de-expediting and statusing);Use of ERP/MRP systems and logic such as IFS, BAAN, SAP, JD Edwards and Oracle with IFS as first preference.Discrepancy resolution activities such as invoice discrepancies, non-conforming material cases and repair/rework material authorizations;Data mining and market analysis;Dealing with traffic, routing instructions, and interaction with the laws governing direct and indirect purchasing. dealing with traffic, routing instructions, and interaction with the laws governing direct and indirect purchasing.Reading blueprints/drawings, interpret specifications and review statements of work.General understanding of the Uniform Commercial Code, U.S. Government FAR, DFARS and ITAR requirements.General understanding of enterprise quality system functionality (e.g., ISO 9000, AS9100, TS16949, etc.).General understanding of the material, services and manufacturing processes associated with the assigned buying desk."
Note there is duplicate sentence about dealing with traffic... appears twice; we should keep as is but maybe not duplicate? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplicate lines are present in source; we should keep them? It says "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate duplicate lines. The duplicate line: "Dealing with traffic, routing instructions, and interaction with the laws governing direct and indirect purchasing." appears twice. We'll keep only one.
Also there may be other duplicates.
Now Additional Guidelines (eligibility):
"Candidates must meet the following employment eligibility guidelines to be considered for employment with Austal USA: 18 years of age or older at time of applicationAble to provide proof of US Person StatusNo felony convictions of Theft/Deception or Violent crimes within seven years from disposition dateNo felony convictions of Drug crimes within three years from disposition dateWilling to submit to a drug screenWilling to submit to a background check"
We need to split into bullet points.
DIRECTION EXERCISED, DISCRETION EXERCISED, LIAISES WITH, Machines And Equipment Involved, Physical Requirements, WORK ENVIRONMENT, SAFETY: we may incorporate into Requirements or About the role? But we have only allowed headings. We could put these under Requirements as they are requirements. However we must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include that info somewhere. We can add a subsection under Requirements using
- for each point. That's acceptable.
Thus Requirements section will contain eligibility guidelines plus physical requirements, work environment, safety, machines, direction exercised, discretion exercised, liaises with.
We must not create headings beyond the allowed ones. So we will put all that under Requirements heading.
Now Pay: Compensation salary range.
Now we must not include Benefits or Schedule.
Now we need to output HTML.
