We need to parse into list items maybe. It's a run-on sentence. We can split by commas and "and". But better to keep as prose? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Benefits is a list, so we should make
- . Let's extract each benefit:
- Medical, dental, vision, and more (available when you work 25 hours per week)
- Paid time off
- Retirement savings program (with company match)
- Exclusive hotel and dining discounts across our brand
- Access to on-site amenities in our Phoenix office, including gym and pickleball courts
- Join a company known for exceptional service and standout guest experiences
- Be part of a passionate team shaping the future of hospitality in Phoenix
- Grow your career with a dynamic, expanding brand
Also maybe "Why Author & Edit Benefits available when you work 25 hours per week" is a phrase. We'll treat as first bullet.
We should also include "Join a company known for exceptional service and standout guest experiences" etc.
Now "Who We Are" section: Should we include? It's not in allowed headings but could be considered About the role? However we already have About the role intro. Could we add another section "About the Company"? Not allowed. The instruction: Use headings only from the list. So we cannot add a custom heading. We could incorporate that content into About the role as prose? But About the role is supposed to be about the role, not company. However we could still put it under About the role as additional prose, but that might be mixing. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could omit "Who We Are" if it doesn't fit allowed headings and would be thin. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot omit. So we need to place it somewhere within allowed headings. Perhaps we can treat it as About the role (since it's about the role's context). Or we could put it under Responsibilities? No. Better to put under About the role as additional paragraph describing the company and role context. That would preserve info.
Thus About the role will have two paragraphs: the initial role description and the "Who We Are" paragraph.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Order: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits. Let's craft. About the role:
