Director of Culinary

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: 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. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the posting and decide sections. The posting includes: - Intro: location, service line, description of role, mission, responsibilities overview. - "What You’ll Do": list of duties. - "What We’re Looking For": list of qualifications/requirements. - "Education & Credentials": list. - "Why Hillcrest?" maybe about role impact. - "What Hillcrest Offers": benefits. - "Physical & Other Requirements": physical requirements. - "Ready to Lead a Culinary Team With Purpose?" maybe call to action (application instructions) – we should remove application instructions. We need to map to allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can combine some. "About the role": could be introductory paragraph describing role, mission, overview. "Responsibilities": the "What You’ll Do" list. "Requirements": maybe "What We’re Looking For" plus "Education & Credentials" plus "Physical & Other Requirements"? But we have separate headings for Qualifications, Skills. Could treat "Qualifications" as education/credentials, "Skills" as abilities, "Requirements" as experience/physical? However we must not create sections with filler. We need to include only sections with real content. We have content for: - About the role (intro) - Responsibilities (What You’ll Do) - Qualifications (Education & Credentials) - Skills (What We’re Looking For includes many skills/abilities) - Benefits (What Hillcrest Offers) - Physical & Other Requirements (maybe as Requirements? but we have a heading "Requirements" allowed; we could put physical requirements there. However "Requirements" could also include experience requirements. But we already have Qualifications and Skills; maybe we can put "Requirements" for experience and physical requirements, and "Qualifications" for education/credentials, "Skills" for abilities. But we must avoid duplication. Let's extract. First, intro paragraph: "Director of Culinary – Hillcrest Firethorn Location: Lincoln, NE Service Line: Hillcrest Firethorn Hillcrest Health & Living is looking for an experienced, organized, and service-focused Director of Culinary to lead culinary operations at Hillcrest Firethorn in Lincoln, NE. Hillcrest Firethorn provides a welcoming senior living environment where residents are supported with personalized care, meaningful connections, and enjoyable daily experiences. Our culinary team plays an important role in that experience by providing high-quality meals, thoughtful service, and a dining environment that residents can look forward to each day. At Hillcrest, our mission is simple: Inspiring people to live their best lives. As the Director of Culinary, you will be responsible for planning, organizing, developing, and directing the overall operation of the Culinary Department and Bistro while ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations, facility policies, dietary requirements, and established quality standards." That's about the role. Second, "What You’ll Do": list of duties (many bullet-like sentences). We'll turn into

  • . Third, "What We’re Looking For": list of qualifications/skills/experience. We'll treat as Skills. Fourth, "Education & Credentials": list. Fifth, "Why Hillcrest?" maybe could be part of About the role or separate but not a standard heading; we could incorporate into About the role or maybe omit as not a standard heading. Since we prefer few substantive sections, we could merge that into About the role. Sixth, "What Hillcrest Offers": benefits. Seventh, "Physical & Other Requirements": we could put under Requirements heading. We must not include Pay or Schedule sections because not specified. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Skills, Qualifications, Benefits, Requirements. Check if any content missing: The "What You’ll Do" includes many duties; we will list them. The "What We’re Looking For" includes many bullet points; we will list them as Skills. Education & Credentials: list. Physical & Other Requirements: list. Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. We must not omit any details from those sections. We'll need to capture each bullet point exactly as in text, but we can rephrase? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep the meaning but we can format as list items; we can keep the sentences as they are, maybe slight editing for list format but not losing info. We must remove duplicated lines, boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, scam-warning, application instructions. The "Ready to Lead a Culinary Team With Purpose?" is basically a call to action; we should remove that as application instructions. Also remove any repeated lines like "Hillcrest Health & Living is looking for..." maybe duplicate? We'll keep only one. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

    About the role

    ... (intro paragraph)

    Responsibilities

    • ... each duty

    Skills

    • ... each skill/experience from "What We’re Looking For"

    Qualifications

    • ... each from Education & Credentials

    Benefits

    • ... each from What Hillcrest Offers

    Requirements

    • ... each from Physical & Other Requirements
    We need to ensure we don't include headings with empty content. Now extract the exact sentences. Let's copy the text and parse. Intro paragraph (About the role): "Director of Culinary – Hillcrest Firethorn Location: Lincoln, NE Service Line: Hillcrest Firethorn Hillcrest Health & Living is looking for an experienced, organized, and service-focused Director of Culinary to lead culinary operations at Hillcrest Firethorn in Lincoln, NE.

As the Director of Culinary, you will be responsible for planning, organizing, developing, and directing the overall operation of the Culinary Department and Bistro while ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations, facility policies, dietary requirements, and established quality standards." We might want to remove the repeated "Director of Culinary – Hillcrest Firethorn Location: Lincoln, NE Service Line: Hillcrest Firethorn" as it's like a heading but we are not using job title heading; but it's part of intro. Could keep but it's redundant. However we should preserve substantive information; it's not boilerplate. It's location and service line. Might keep. But we could trim to just the descriptive sentences. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; location and service line are substantive. So include them.
