We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Keep all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Content: Intro paragraph: "Because you’re the team’s glue. Motivate our way! Expanding teams, capabilities, and ambitions. And thanks to our incredible size and scale, more opportunities for you and more amazing experiences for our customers. As a Department Manager at Primark, progress is yours to own at the forefront of expanding this fashion revolution in the United States. Our strong values run through everything we do. We’re caring, dynamic and we succeed together. There’s real accountability and ownership here as you shape your team’s futures and encourage sales. Because you thrive outside your comfort zone. Apply to join us as an in-store Department Manager." That's about the role. Could be "About the role". We'll put that in

containing that paragraph. Next: "What You’ll Do As a Department Manager, you will own a department, and focus on maximizing its sales, inventory, and standards. Department Managers have the power to impact the business daily, by managing inventory, moving product in accordance with customer demand, reviewing and managing planograms and period layouts, and by being commercial (meaning that you’ll know what is trending and thus order your merchandise daily to drive sales). You will keep an eye on the local market to maintain a competitive advantage in price, product, and shopping experience. You will use data to gain full knowledge of your department’s performance to drive sales and meet targets and manage stock file accuracy for your department. As the leader of your department, you will hire, train, coach and motivate a team of Sales Associates and Team Leaders. This is crucial to ensuring your department delivers an exceptional shopping experience for every customer and a positive work environment for every colleague." That's responsibilities. So

    • items: robust onboarding period, empowered to succeed, tools to excel, competitive benefits, work-life balance. But we need to ensure we only include sections with real specific content. Benefits: we have "competitive benefits and work life balance". That's specific enough. Next: "What You’ll Bring To be successful in this role, you will have at least 2 years of retail leadership experience in a fast-paced, high-volume environment and demonstrate strong commercial acumen.

Position holder must also be able to provide amazing customer service in English, which includes being able to orally communicate with customers in English and monitor the performance of English-speaking colleagues whose job duties require communication with customers." That's a mix of requirements, qualifications, skills. We need to decide sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. We need to split content appropriately. We have: - At least 2 years of retail leadership experience in a fast-paced, high-volume environment (requirement) - Demonstrate strong commercial acumen (requirement/skill) - Typically join us with retail experience as either a Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager, or Department Manager (experience) - Nimble and adaptable, able to flex plans and priorities in fast-paced environment (skill) - Strong communication skills and ability to relate to customer’s needs (skill) - Role model who can lead, motivate, inspire team, builds confidence and enthusiasm (skill/quality) - Resilient with proven ability to lead a team and confident in giving constructive feedback (skill) - Commercially aware with understanding of local market, key competitors and how use of relevant systems and tools can improve option control and drive sales (skill/knowledge) - Good planning and organizational skills, prioritizing and working within agreed timescales (skill) - Experience supporting store management with protection of people, property and premises by securing cash, stock and property (requirement/experience) - Keyholder responsibility including availability for emergency call outs (requirement) - Ability to effectively manage difficult situations and have good problem-solving skills (skill) - Position holder must be able to communicate effectively and efficiently, orally and in writing, with managers, supervisors, and hourly colleagues in English to provide instruction, coaching, corrective action, safety instructions and lead teams as a manager daily and in emergencies (skill) - Position holder must also be able to provide amazing customer service in English, which includes being able to orally communicate with customers in English and monitor the performance of English-speaking colleagues whose job duties require communication with customers (skill) We could put Requirements: at least 2 years retail leadership experience, keyholder responsibility, experience supporting store management (protection of people, property, premises). Also maybe "retail experience as Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager, or Department Manager" could be qualification. Qualifications: retail experience as Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager, or Department Manager. Skills: communication, commercial acumen, adaptability, leadership, resilience, planning/organizational, problem-solving, customer service, etc. Pay: we have pay range: $62,400-$69,160. Also note it's a good faith estimate etc. We should include Pay section with that info. Schedule: not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule heading. Benefits we already have. We also have "We’re committed to your success and will provide you with a robust onboarding period. Here, you’ll be empowered to succeed. As we rapidly expand across the globe, we’ll give you the tools that you need to excel. We’ll also offer you competitive benefits and work life balance – we know your life outside of the store is important." That's benefits. We should not include duplicated lines like "Excited? Good." etc. Also remove EEO boilerplate at end. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the specifics like "at least 2 years of retail leadership experience in a fast-paced, high-volume environment". Keep that exact phrase. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Already not. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's structure:
