Commercial Specialist
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes: Primary Responsibilities, Secondary Responsibilities, Success Factors, Essential Job Skills Necessary for Success, Prior Experience that Sets a Commercial Specialist up for Success, Education, Certificates, Licenses, Registrations, Physical Demands, Work Environment, Compensation Range, Benefits.
We need to map to allowed headings: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (primary+secondary), Requirements (maybe essential skills?), Qualifications (education, experience), Skills (maybe success factors?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No schedule info given, so omit Schedule. Pay is present: Compensation Range. Benefits present. Also maybe "About the role" could be a brief description: The job description primary responsibilities etc. But we must not repeat job title. We can create an About the role section summarizing the role: maybe combine primary responsibilities? But we must not invent or summarize away detail; we must preserve all substantive info. So we need to include all details, not just summary. Could put primary responsibilities under Responsibilities heading, secondary under same or separate? Probably combine both under Responsibilities. Use - for list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can break into lists where appropriate.

Physical Demands: (we could include under maybe a section? Not in allowed headings; but we could put under Responsibilities? Not appropriate. Could we create a section "Requirements" to include physical demands? The allowed headings include Requirements. We can put physical demands and work environment under Requirements. Also maybe include certifications etc under Qualifications? Let's decide.
We have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to map content:
- About the role: maybe a brief overview: The role supports CPP-led commercial sales, handles dispatching, fleet maintenance, account stocking, deliveries, etc. But we must not invent; we can summarize using the primary responsibilities but that might be considered summarizing away detail? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we cannot replace detailed list with a summary; we need to keep the details. So we should not create an About the role section that summarises; we could either omit About the role if no specific content, or we could put a short paragraph that is directly from the posting (maybe the first sentence: "Job Description Primary Responsibilities Support CPP-led commercial sales." But that's not a summary; it's a line. However we need to avoid repeating job title. The posting starts with "Job Description Primary Responsibilities Support CPP-led commercial sales." That's a sentence. We could put that as About the role paragraph. But it's basically the same as responsibilities. Might be okay.
Better: Since we must include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does not have a distinct "About the role" paragraph; it's just responsibilities. So we could omit About the role.
Responsibilities: include primary and secondary responsibilities as list items.
Requirements: could include Essential Job Skills Necessary for Success, Physical Demands, Work Environment, maybe also Prior Experience? But Prior Experience could be Qualifications. Education and Certificates could be Qualifications.
Skills: could include Success Factors (friendly communication etc.) and maybe also Essential Job Skills? But we need to avoid duplication.
