HybridFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "The Role" paragraph, then "Responsibilities", then "About You", then "Nice To Haves", then "What’s it like to work at MOO?" (benefits), then "Diversity Statement" (should be removed as boilerplate). Also we need to include sections only if real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We need to use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content accordingly. We have: - About the role: The paragraph after "The Role" describing role leads day-to-day category management etc. That's a prose. - Responsibilities: bullet list under "Responsibilities" heading with subheadings? Actually they have subheadings: Promotional Product & Assortment Management, Trend & Market Insight, Third-Party Supplier Management, Inventory Enablement (Across Merch), Cross-Functional Collaboration. Each with bullet points. We need to output
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Should we keep subheadings? Possibly we can keep them as

    ? But only allowed headings are

    for section headings. We could embed subheadings as or just plain text inside
  • . The instruction: Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we can have a

      Responsibilities

      then a
        containing list items; each list item can contain the subheading text maybe bolded. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have About You (qualifications/skills). That could be "About You" heading maybe map to "Requirements" or "Qualifications" or "Skills". The instruction says use those headings if appropriate. We have "About You" with bullet list of required experience and "Nice To Haves". We could treat "About You" as Requirements/Qualifications. Since they ask to use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could create a

        Requirements

        for the required experience bullet list, and a

        Nice To Haves

        maybe as Skills? But they said use those headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can use Requirements for mandatory, Skills for nice-to-haves? Or Qualifications for mandatory. Let's decide: Use Requirements for mandatory experience, Skills for nice-to-haves. Or we could combine both under Requirements and Skills. Let's do: -

        About the role

        with prose. -

        Responsibilities

        with
          list items each containing subheading and bullet points. -

          Requirements

          with
            list of required experience bullet points. -

            Skills

            with
              list of nice-to-haves bullet points. -

              Benefits

              with
                list of benefits from "What’s it like to work at MOO?" (34 days vacation, medical/dental/vision, life and AD&D, 401(k) match, dog-friendly casual office, free lunches every other week). Also maybe mention "healthy work/life balance". We'll include those. We should not include Pay or Schedule sections because not mentioned. We must remove boilerplate: Diversity Statement, optional survey, AI tools, etc. Also remove "We are working hard..." etc. Also remove "Not online but out there..." etc? That's part of company description; we might keep as part of About the role? Actually the company description at start is not part of role; but we need to preserve ALL substantive information. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That includes the company description? The job posting includes that as introductory fluff. It's substantive? It's about the company. Should we keep it? The instruction says to reformat a job posting into clean HTML. Likely we should include the company overview as part of the posting, maybe as a preamble before sections. But they said do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

                or drop it. They didn't say to drop company description. So we should keep it as a

                before sections. Thus output: start with a

                containing the company description paragraph(s) up to "The Role". Then sections. We need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The Diversity Statement is EEO-like; we should remove it. Also the optional survey and AI tools lines are boilerplate; remove. Also remove "What’s it like to work at MOO?" heading? We'll turn that into Benefits section. We need to preserve all substantive information: the benefits list, the description of work environment, etc. Let's extract company description: "MOO brings brands to life in a sustainable way, with a range of remarkable print and merchandise products. We combine design, technology, manufacturing and service, so that people can connect in memorable ways. Not online but out there, in real life. We started in 2004. Since then we’ve built an award-winning and much-loved brand, with customer satisfaction and Trustpilot ratings that make most businesses want to give up and hire an army of review bots. We’ve got half a million customers, mostly small and medium businesses in North America, the UK, and Europe – businesses that, like us, get all excited about putting something real and beautiful into people’s hands. Does that make us nerds? Probably, and we’re ok with that. We’ve been given the highest business award in Britain, ‘The Queen’s Award for Enterprise’. Backed by venture capital, we’re part of Tech Nation’s ‘Future Fifty’, recently passing $1bn in lifetime revenue, and featuring in the Guardian’s top 10 UK start-ups list. Ok, we’ll stop bragging now. Today, we’re more than 400 people with our global HQ in London, UK, while we also have premises in Dagenham. In the US, you’ll find us in Boston, MA, as well as East Providence, RI and Denver, CO and with our most recent office expansion in Cape Town South Africa." That's the company description. Then "The Role" paragraph: "This role leads the day-to-day category management of MOO’s sourced and promotional product assortment, working with third-party suppliers to deliver branded merchandise that reflects customer demand, current promo trends, and MOO’s design-led brand ethos You will bring a finger-on-the-pulse understanding of the promo industry — spotting emerging products, materials, and decoration techniques — and translate those insights into a focused, commercially sound assortment In parallel, this role partners closely with MOO’s existing Stock, Planning, and Operations teams to support and improve inventory performance, helping ensure sourced and internally manufactured merch products are available, efficient, and revenue-supporting without disrupting established ownership" We need to keep that as prose. Now Responsibilities: we have headings and bullet points. Let's extract each: Promotional Product & Assortment Management - Lead the management and evolution of MOO’s sourced and promotional product range - Blend promo industry trends, customer demand, and MOO’s brand and design standards to shape the assortment - Monitor product performance and recommend assortment updates, additions, and exits - Support identification of promo products with potential to evolve into hybrid or in-house offerings Trend & Market Insight - Maintain a strong point of view on promo product trends, including materials, sustainability, decoration techniques, and emerging use cases - Stay closely connected to supplier innovation, trade shows, and industry developments - Share market insight with Category, Marketing, and Design partners to inform launches and campaigns Third-Party Supplier Management - Manage relationships with third-party promo suppliers, acting as the primary category contact - Support negotiations on pricing, MOQs, lead times, decoration capabilities, and service levels - Establish scalable internal supplier onboarding processes that reduce friction and accelerate access to new promotional products - Track supplier performance and collaborate on continuous improvement Inventory Enablement (Across Merch) - Partner with Stock and Planning teams to support improvements in availability, stock turns, and OOS reduction - Provide category insight, promotional drivers, and demand context to support forecasting and replenishment decisions - Collaborate with existing owners to identify out-of-stock risks, excess exposure, and lifecycle decisions - Support refinement of inventory policies (weeks of cover, safety stock, replenishment cadence) in partnership with Stock and Planning teams Cross-Functional Collaboration - Work closely with the Internal Manufacturing Category Manager to align demand drivers and roadmap timing with inventory readiness - Partner with Marketing to support launch readiness and promo storytelling - Act as a collaborative category voice with Operations and Supply Chain, supporting continuous improvement initiatives Now About You (requirements): - Demonstrated experience in promotional products and branded merchandise - Hands-on experience working with promo suppliers, MOQs, lead times, and decoration methods - Strong understanding of promo industry trends and market dynamics - Commercial mindset with comfort using data to inform decisions - Experience supporting inventory planning or demand forecasting - Collaborative working style and ability to influence without authority Nice To Haves: - Experience working with design-led or premium brands - Exposure to hybrid or decorated promo products - Experience working with PromoStandards Benefits (What’s it like to work at MOO?): - MOO’s the kind of workplace where you can really be yourself. Dye your hair purple. Hit the sofa with your laptop. Whatever helps you feel comfortable and happy at work. - We want to help you grow in your career and set you up for success – while also recognising the importance of a healthy work/life balance. - That’s why we offer 34 days of combined vacation and holidays, comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life and AD&D insurance. - We also offer a 401(k) with company match and no vesting schedule, a dog-friendly and casual office environment, and free lunches every other week. - Because when you feel good, your work does too. We should keep those as list items. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We'll start with a

                for company description. Then

                About the role

                ...

                . Then

                Responsibilities

                  with
                • each containing maybe subheading then
                    inner? But they said use
                    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could nest lists? Probably okay but safer to flatten: each bullet as
                    • with the subheading bolded then the bullet text. However we have multiple bullet points under each subheading; we could make each bullet a separate
                    • and include subheading as part of text for first bullet? That would lose grouping. Better to have nested lists: outer
                        for each responsibility area, inner
                          for bullets. That still uses
                          • for lists. Acceptable. Thus:

                            Responsibilities

                            • Promotional Product & Assortment Management
                              • Lead the management and evolution of MOO’s sourced and promotional product range
                              • Blend promo industry trends, customer demand, and MOO’s brand and design standards to shape the assort
