We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: About Breville (intro) but we should not repeat job title as heading; we can include About Breville as maybe not a section? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should create headings for sections that have content. The posting includes "About the role:" paragraph. Then responsibilities list (bullet points). Then Education & Experience (requirements). Then Technical Skills, Analytical & Problem-Solving Ability, Communication & Interpersonal Skills, Leadership & Work Style. Those could be grouped under Skills or Qualifications. We need to decide sections. We have content for: - About the role: description paragraph. - Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet points after "About the role:"). - Requirements/Education & Experience: Bachelor's degree required, 5 years experience, etc. - Qualifications: maybe combine Education & Experience? Could be separate. - Skills: Technical Skills, Analytical & Problem-Solving Ability, Communication & Interpersonal Skills, Leadership & Work Style. - Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not provided, so omit. Thus we output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: "To Apply Come and make your mark..." and EEO statement. Also remove "About Breville" maybe? It's not a section heading but could be included as prose? The instruction: "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." The "About Breville" is introductory company description; could be included as a

    before sections? Not required but we could include as a

    without heading. However they said use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). They didn't forbid other headings, but we should follow that pattern. Probably we can include a brief intro paragraph about Breville as a

    before the first heading. We must not include application instructions or EEO. Let's extract details: About Breville paragraph: "Over the past 90+ years Breville has grown to become an iconic global brand, delivering kitchen products to over 70 countries around the globe. Breville enhances people's lives through the delivery of brilliant innovation and thoughtful design based on deep consumer insights, empowering people to do things more impressively or easily than they'd thought possible in their own home and ultimately allowing them to 'Master Every Moment'. A career at Breville is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. It's more than working for a global leader; it's an opportunity to be a part of something that impacts people all over the world." We can keep that as a

    . About the role: paragraph after "About the role:" includes: "This role supports the Credit & Collections Manager in executing credit review, risk reduction, and collections processes across the North American region, which currently includes a customer base in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. The Supervisor is responsible for guiding a team of Credit & Collections Analysts through daily account management, collections activity, and claims processing - while serving as a key member of the broader customer management team. He/She/They work(s) closely with Sales, Customer Service, and Operations to build positive, lasting relationships with our customer base through responsive and exceptional service." We'll put that as

    under

    About the role

    . Responsibilities: list of bullet points after that paragraph. Let's extract each bullet: - Evaluate the creditworthiness of new and existing customers for review and approval by management - Proactively manage potential credit issues, including customer non-payment and order holds, identifying risk trends and communicating findings with recommended action - Identify and resolve discrepancies with customer accounts, including reconciling major customer accounts with large volume of transactional data - Support the Credit and Collections Manager with financial reports and audit requests where accuracy and timeliness are key - Initiate AI driven process improvement projects to increase workflow efficiency and support the team with adoption of new AI tools in a rapidly changing technologic environment - Assist the Credit & Collections Manager in hiring, onboarding, and developing team members; directly supervise Credit & Collections Analysts, providing day-to-day guidance on account management, collections procedures, and claims processing to ensure tasks are completed accurately and escalations are flagged in a timely manner - Manage upward to ensure expectations are clearly defined, deliverable deadlines are agreed upon, and commitments are met - Assist in continuously improving Credit and Collections procedures and controls, contributing to departmental goals and process efficiency - Liaise with multiple functions of the business - including Sales, Customer Service, and Operations - to ensure customer orders are managed and released within established credit limits - Build and maintain positive relationships with customers across the North American region, serving as a responsive and professional point of contact for account-related inquiries We'll put those in
    • . Requirements/Education & Experience: bullet list: - Bachelor's degree (BA/BS) required - Minimum 5 years of Credit & Collections experience, including at least 2 years in a supervisory role - Demonstrated experience managing customer claims across multiple claim types - promotional allowances, contractual deductions, returns, and pricing disputes We'll put under

      Requirements

      (or Qualifications). The instruction list includes Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We could combine education/experience as Requirements, and maybe Qualifications for skills? But we have Skills separate. Let's do Requirements for education/experience, and Skills for technical/analytical/communication/leadership. Skills: we have categories: Technical Skills: - Advanced Microsoft Excel proficiency, including XLOOKUPs, pivot tables, and add-ins - Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) ERP system preferred - Working knowledge of or demonstrated interest in AI and automation tools preferred Analytical & Problem-Solving Ability: - Strong analytical skills with the ability to gather, normalize, and interpret complex financial data - Detail-oriented with a consistent track record of accuracy in a high-volume environment - Proven ability to identify process gaps and proactively drive improvements to internal controls and workflows Communication & Interpersonal Skills: - Excellent written and verbal communication skills - Ability to tailor financial information and reporting to audiences with varying levels of financial literacy - Proven ability to build and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders - Able to influence and collaborate effectively across departments without direct authority Leadership & Work Style: - Self-directed and capable of identifying and executing critical tasks independently, with appropriate urgency - Comfortable managing shifting priorities in a fast-paced, minimally supervised environment - Collaborative team player with a proactive, solutions-focused approach and a willingness to contribute where needed We could combine all under a single Skills section with subheadings? But we only allowed

      for section headings; we could use

      for subheadings? Not specified. Safer to keep each as separate

      sections? But that would be many sections. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should group them under a single Skills section, maybe using
        with items that include the details. However we need to preserve the categorization; we could keep subheadings as or

        inside the section. But we must not invent headings not listed. We could use

        for each category title inside the Skills section. Thus:

        Skills

        Technical Skills

        • ...
        • ...

        Analytical & Problem-Solving Ability

          ...
        ... etc. That seems acceptable. We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft:
