We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have description paragraphs. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First paragraph: greeting, company intro. Could be "About the role"? Actually that's more about company. Could be "About the role" maybe includes overview. But we need to avoid repeating job title as heading. The job title is Demand Planner. We shouldn't put that as heading. We need sections: maybe "About the role" (overview), "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Qualifications", "Skills", "Benefits", "Pay". Schedule not present. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Let's extract content. Company intro: "Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oatmilk company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago and has since expanded to the U.S. where we’ve continued growing at a rate such that we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oatmilk flowing. Sustainability, health, and transparency are the core values that guide everything we do. Basically, we exist to help people live a healthier life without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process, and to change the food system for the better. We drive that change through the power of oats and through a significant reduction in cow’s milk consumption. If any of this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like to work for Oatly, too." That's about company, could be "About the role" or maybe we could have a section "About Oatly". But only allowed headings list includes About the role. We'll use that. Then "Now onto the formal stuff. We are looking for a Demand Planner to join our team. This role will be responsible for delivering accurate demand forecasts for the North American markets to ensure optimal product availability and efficient supply chain operations. The role is critical in balancing customer service levels, inventory levels, and business objectives within a fast paced CPG environment at Oatly. The demand planner is also responsible for analyzing market trends and providing key inputs to the market commercial review as part of the monthly integrated business planning cycle as well as ensuring efficient coordination between market and central supply chain functions." That's overview of role; could be part of About the role. Then "Here are the things we want to hire you to do:" then bullet list under headings: Demand Forecasting And Analysis, Collaboration & Communication, Systems & Tools. Those are responsibilities. We need to put responsibilities under

Responsibilities

with
  • items. We need to preserve all bullet points. Let's extract bullet points: Under Demand Forecasting And Analysis: - Develop and maintain short-, medium-, and long-term demand forecasts using statistical models and market intelligence - Analyze historical sales data, market trends, and promotional plans to improve forecast accuracy - Host consensus meetings monthly to align commercial input such as promotional and seasonal factors as well as new listings and new product introductions - Support in preparation for the Commercial Review as part of the monthly IBP process Under Collaboration & Communication: - Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Finance to incorporate business insights into demand planning - Lead the monthly demand review meetings as part of the market commercial review within the company’s S&OP/IBP process - Work closely with central logistics, planning and fulfillment teams to ensure smooth E-2-E supply chain operations towards markets - Provide actionable insights & recommendations to the management team as a key stakeholder within the local commercial review Under Systems & Tools: - Utilize and evolve advanced analytics (Anaplan/BI) to enhance planning accuracy and decision-making - Responsible for monitoring & improving market specific KPI´s and reports such as sales forecast accuracy/bias and overall supply & delivery performance - Ensure data integrity and maintain master data for forecasting systems Now after that: "Here Are The Things We Think You Need" then list of qualifications/requirements. List: - Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, Business Administration or a related field preferred - 2-3 years of supply chain experience in either Anaplan or other advanced planning solutions - Collaborative with a passion for cross-functional teamwork within different parts of the organization - Deep understanding of the corporate mission and strategic objectives - Agile and adaptable, able to thrive in a fast-paced and dynamic environment - Results-oriented with a focus on delivering value and achieving business objectives - Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels within the market - Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex data and provide actionable insights - Proficiency in planning and forecasting software, ERP systems, and advanced analytics tools - Excellent project management and organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities - Strategic thinker with a problem-solving mindset and attention to detail Then "And here’s another list of qualities we think make a good Oatly team member:" list: - You feel connected to our mission of encouraging health, sustainability, and transparency - You are a self-starter who doesn’t need direct supervision to motivate you for success – we believe strongly in building a culture of individual accountability and ownership and need partners that can embrace that mentality - You are ready to make your mark in a smaller, growing brand leveraging your experience to deliver amazing results and build an outstanding company - You have an entrepreneurial spirit in that you’re comfortable with ambiguity and are energized by the process of building something lasting from the ground up - You enjoy sharing your quirkiness and talents with your coworkers Then a long awkward sentence about benefits: "Another bulleted list felt a bit too…bullet-y. So we wrote this long, awkward sentence to let you know all the ways we sweeten the deal when you work with us, like flexible vacation (take it when you need it), really great benefits (yes, pet insurance is in there), paid volunteer days off throughout the year (doing good is fun), free six packs of...(drumroll)…oatmilk, and you’ll also get genuinely great coworkers who are rooting for each other and the company to thrive." We need to extract benefits: flexible vacation, really great benefits (pet insurance), paid volunteer days off, free six packs of oatmilk, great coworkers. We should put under Benefits section. Then: "Oh, one more short but very important sentence: We are nimble and agile (not chaotic) in how we work, and we’re grounded in a long company history dating way back to the last century." This could be part of About the role or maybe not needed. Then salary info: "The salary for this role will be based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to geographic location, internal equity, experience, education, specialty, and training. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific location. Compensation may also include bonus, commission, or equity as applicable. Our good faith estimate for base salary is $100,000." We need Pay section with that info. Then accommodation statement: "Our team is available to support you through the hiring process with reasonable accommodations to enable a barrier-free interview experience. We will maintain candidate privacy and confidentiality to enable an unbiased and equitable experience. If you need assistance applying for a role due to a disability or special need, please contact peopleconnect.NA@oatly.com." This is boilerplate? It's about accommodations, maybe we should keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is about accommodations for disability; might be considered EEO? It's about disability accommodation. Might be considered EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. Probably remove. Then "Oatly is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability or veteran status." That's EEO boilerplate, remove. Thus final HTML: sections: About the role (company intro + role overview), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe combine qualifications and qualities? Could separate Requirements and Qualifications and Skills). The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the role: company intro + role overview. - Responsibilities: the detailed duty list. - Requirements: maybe the "Here Are The Things We Think You Need" list (education, experience, etc.) could be Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe the "And here’s another list of qualities we think make a good Oatly team member:" could be Qualifications (or Skills). But we also have skills list within requirements (analytical, communication, etc.). Could split: Requirements = education/experience; Qualifications = personal qualities/attributes; Skills = technical skills (proficiency in tools, etc.). However the list includes both. Better to follow typical: Requirements = education/experience; Qualifications = skills/abilities; Benefits = benefits; Pay = salary. But we have many items; we can combine. Let's define: - Requirements: Bachelor’s degree..., 2-3 years..., Collaborative..., Deep understanding..., Agile..., Results-oriented..., Exceptional communication..., Strong analytical..., Proficiency..., Excellent project management..., Strategic thinker... (these are more like qualifications/skills). Actually they are a mix. - Qualifications: the Oatly team member qualities list (mission connection, self-starter, entrepreneurial spirit, sharing quirkiness). That seems like cultural fit. - Skills: maybe we could separate technical skills: Proficiency in planning and forecasting software, ERP systems, advanced analytics tools; Excellent project management and organizational skills; Strong analytical skills; Exceptional communication; etc. But that duplicates. Given instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called "Requirements" that includes education, experience, skills, and personal qualities. But we have separate headings allowed; we could just use Requirements and Benefits and Pay and About the role and Responsibilities. That's 5 sections. Let's do:

    About the role

    with company intro + role overview paragraph(s).

    Responsibilities

    with ul list of all duty items.

    Requirements

    with ul list combining the "Here Are The Things We Think You Need" and the Oatly team member qualities list (maybe also include skills). We'll include all items from both lists.

    Benefits

    with ul list of benefits extracted.

    Pay

    with p containing salary info. We must not include Schedule. Now ensure we preserve all substantive info, not invent. Let's craft the HTML. First, About the role: combine company intro paragraph and the formal stuff paragraph up to "Here are the things we want to hire you to do:"? Actually that sentence leads to responsibilities. Better to stop before that. So About the role includes: "Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oatmilk company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago and has since expanded to the U.S. where we’ve continued growing at a rate such that we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oatmilk flowing.

Basically, we exist to help people live a healthier life without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process, and to change the food system for the better. We drive that change through the power of oats and through a significant reduction in cow’s milk consumption. If any of this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like to work for Oatly, too. Now onto the formal stuff. We are looking for a Demand Planner to join our team. This role will be
