Director, Americas Business Technology

We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions). Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Pay & Benefits section with salary range, bonus, medical, dental, vision, flexible time off, 401(k), tuition reimbursement. So we can have Benefits and Pay sections. Schedule not mentioned, so omit. We need sections: About the role (maybe from Position Summary?), Responsibilities (Essential Duties And Responsibilities), Requirements (Requirements And Preferred Skills), Qualifications? Might be overlapping. The instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. We have "Requirements And Preferred Skills" which includes both requirements and preferred skills. Could split into Requirements and Skills? But we have to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Requirements and Skills into one section? But they ask to use headings for each if content exists. We could have Requirements (includes bachelor's degree, 10+ years, etc.) and Skills (maybe list of skills like business acumen, etc.) However the text includes both requirements and preferred skills together. We could separate: Requirements (mandatory) and Preferred Skills (preferred). But we need to see if there is distinct content for each. The posting says: "Requirements And Preferred Skills Bachelor's degree ... 10+ years ... Experience supporting manufacturing... Strong business and financial acumen... Proven success building executive-level business partnerships... Experience in technology strategy, portfolio management, governance, and value realization... Experience leading managers and developing high-performing teams... Proven ability to build organizational capability through talent development, succession planning, and team leadership... Experience influencing decisions and driving alignment across business stakeholders, enterprise IT functions, and external partners. Preferred BS/BA degree required & MBA or advanced degree preferred. Experience within industrial manufacturing organizations. Experience leading large-scale business transformation and modernization programs." Thus we can separate: Requirements (the first bullet list up to "Experience influencing decisions...") and Skills (maybe the preferred items). However the instruction says use headings for Skills as well. Could do Requirements and Skills sections. Also we have "Outcomes and Measures of Success" which could be considered part of Responsibilities? Not a standard heading. Could maybe include under Responsibilities or as its own section? Not in list of allowed headings. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content to those. "Outcomes and Measures of Success" could be part of Responsibilities or maybe Qualifications? Probably Responsibilities. "About the role" could be the Position Summary paragraph. "Responsibilities" could be the Essential Duties And Responsibilities bullet points (the list under that heading). We need to convert each bullet into

. The text includes subheadings like Strategic Business Partnership, Enterprise IT & Technology Partner Leadership, etc. Those are subheadings within responsibilities. We could keep them as

with maybe bold? But we only allowed

• for list. We could embed subheadings as inside
• . That's okay. "Requirements" as described. "Skills" maybe the preferred skills. "Benefits" and "Pay" sections. We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunity, Work Environment, etc. Remove those. Also remove "Why Gates?" maybe not needed? It's somewhat boilerplate but contains some info about company. Might be considered not substantive for the role? It's about company background. Could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Why Gates?" is not exactly those, but could be considered company overview. Might be okay to keep as part of About the role? But we already have Position Summary. Might be redundant. Safer to omit. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting that are relevant to role: Position Summary, Essential Duties (with subpoints), Requirements, Preferred Skills, Pay & Benefits details. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

  We should not include Schedule. Check for any duplicated lines: we have not included any. We must ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like Equal Opportunity etc. We omitted. Check that we preserved all substantive info: Position Summary (About the role) we need to include that paragraph. Let's craft About the role paragraph from Position Summary: "The Director, Americas Business Technology is the senior business-facing technology leader for the Americas region. As the primary technology partner to the Americas President's leadership team, this role aligns technology investments, operational support, and modernization priorities with business objectives. The position owns the Americas business-technology relationship and technology portfolio, translating business priorities into demand, roadmaps, investment decisions, and measurable business outcomes. This leader drives stakeholder engagement, portfolio governance, service delivery oversight, modernization planning, and value realization while partnering closely with the Director IT, ERP & Manufacturing Systems Transformation on major ERP, MES, and WMS initiatives. The Director leads the Americas Business Technology organization, with direct responsibility for IT leaders and their teams. The role develops organizational capability, establishes accountability, and enables an integrated operating model across regional teams, enterprise IT functions, and strategic technology partners." That is the Position Summary. We also have a brief intro at top: "Are you inspired by challenging the status quo? Do you thrive in collaborative environments that drive results? If so, Gates could be for you. Gates is a leading manufacturer of application-specific fluid power and power transmission solutions. We push the boundaries of material science to engineer solutions that continually exceed customer expectations. Let's simplify it, think belts and hoses. Found in motorcycles, conveyor belts, cars, tractors, blenders, vacuum cleaners, bicycles, & 3D printers just to name a few. Because why not do it all?" This is more company overview; could be considered part of About the role? Might be considered substantive but not strictly role. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep that as well, maybe incorporate into About the role paragraph. However the About the role heading is for section about the role; we could prepend that company overview to the About the role paragraph. It's not boilerplate; it's describing Gates. It's substantive. So include it. Thus About the role

  will contain both the intro and the Position Summary. Let's combine: "Are you inspired by challenging the status quo? Do you thrive in collaborative environments that drive results? If so, Gates could be for you. Gates is a leading manufacturer of application-specific fluid power and power transmission solutions. We push the boundaries of material science to engineer solutions that continually exceed customer expectations. Let's simplify it, think belts and hoses. Found in motorcycles, conveyor belts, cars, tractors, blenders, vacuum cleaners, bicycles, & 3D printers just to name a few. Because why not
