Director, Integrated Supply Chain Planning & Execution

We need to output only HTML fragment, with headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. Include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Intro paragraph: "Join our Supply Chain team at Helen of Troy..." etc. That's about the role/company. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role". We'll treat as "About the role". - Hybrid schedule description: "Hybrid Schedule: At Helen of Troy, we embrace a flexible hybrid work model..." This is schedule info. So we need a Schedule section. - "What You Will Be Doing" with bullet-like paragraphs (though not bullet list). It's a series of responsibilities. We'll put under Responsibilities. - "Skills Needed To Be Successful In This Role" with bullet-like sentences. We'll put under Skills. - "Minimum Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications". Could combine under Qualifications? The instruction says we can have Qualifications section. We'll include Qualifications (maybe separate Minimum and Preferred as list items). We'll include both. - Pay: "In Massachusetts and New York, the standard base pay range for this role is $150,000.00 -$180,000.00 annually." That's pay info specific to MA/NY. So we need a Pay section. - Benefits: list of benefits. So Benefits section. - Also there is location info: "Work Location (s): Bend, OREl Paso, TXMarlborough, MABoston, MANew York, NY". That's location metadata; we could fold into a short

  maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction says do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. So location is minor metadata; we can include a short paragraph maybe after About the role. - Also there is "Hybrid Schedule: ..." we already have schedule. - Also there is "Any updates to this model will be communicated in advance. Please note that hybrid eligibility and schedules may vary based on business needs and manager expectations." That's part of schedule. - Also there is "Wondering if you should apply? ..." that's encouraging to apply; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's motivational; maybe we can keep as part of About the role? It's not a list; but it's not essential? It's somewhat fluff but still substantive? It's encouraging to apply; could be considered application instruction? It says "Do NOT ... application instructions." This is encouraging to apply, maybe considered application instruction. Safer to drop it. - Also there is "li-ab1 For more information about Helen of Troy, visit www.helenoftroy.com. You can also find us on LinkedIn, and Glassdoor." That's navigation/footer; drop. - EEO statement etc drop. - Also "Founded in 1968..." etc is company description; could be part of About the role. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details about responsibilities, skills, qualifications, pay, benefits, schedule, location maybe. We must not create sections with filler. So we need to decide which sections to include: About the role (intro + company description + location maybe), Responsibilities, Skills, Qualifications, Pay, Benefits, Schedule. Check if any section would be empty or just placeholder. We'll ensure each has content. Now format: We'll output something like:
