We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Position Details" and then description. We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content for responsibilities (the bullet-like paragraphs). We have qualifications (Required Qualifications). We have Work Schedule (Schedule). We have Benefits (list of benefits). No explicit Pay. No Skills separate (maybe could infer but not given). We should not create sections with placeholder.
Thus sections: About the role (maybe a brief summary). Could use the Position Details paragraph as About the role. Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet-like paragraphs under Institutional Marketing & Communications Strategy etc). Could group them under Responsibilities. Requirements: maybe combine with Qualifications? The posting has "Required Qualifications" with Education, Experience. Could treat as Qualifications. Requirements maybe not separate. But we can include Requirements as same as Qualifications? Better to follow instruction: use headings for those categories if content exists. We have Qualifications content. We could put Requirements as empty? No, we must not emit heading with filler. So we only include sections with real content: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule.

We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities we should make a list. For Qualifications we could list Education and Experience as list items. Benefits list.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.
Let's extract:
About the role: The Position Details paragraph: "The Director of Institutional Marketing & Communications Strategy serves as a senior communications leader responsible for advancing the University's visibility, reputation, brand, engagement, and philanthropic priorities. Reporting to the Vice President for Marketing & Communications, this role leads institutional marketing, strategic communications, public and media relations, executive communications, brand marketing, issues management, and reputation-building initiatives. The Director develops and executes integrated marketing and communications strategies, advises senior leadership, oversees high-profile campaigns and communications, and partners across the University to strengthen institutional positioning, audience engagement, and organizational impact."
That's the prose.
Responsibilities: The bullet-like sections after that: Institutional Marketing & Communications Strategy (with subpoints), Institutional Reputation & Positioning, Public Relations & Media Relations, Presidential and Executive Communications Strategy, Issues Management & Crisis Communications, Institutional Brand Marketing and Paid Programming, Partnership with Enrollment Marketing, Advancement & Philanthropic Marketing Support, Integrated Institutional Campaign Leadership, Measurement & Performance, Collaboration & Institutional Partnership.
We need to capture each bullet's content as list items. Should we break each main heading into separate list items? Probably each bullet is a responsibility area; we can make each as
- containing the description (maybe multiple sentences). Keep all details.
Qualifications: Education: Bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, public relations, journalism, business or a related field required. Advanced degree preferred.
Experience: Ten or more years of progressively responsible experience in strategic communications, institutional marketing, public relations, media relations, brand strategy, executive communications or a related field. Demonstrated experience developing and executing institutional or corporate marketing and communications strategies in a complex organization. Significant experience in public relations, media relations, reputation management and issues communications.

Experience managing agencies, consultants, vendors or external communications partners. Experience using communications and marketing performance data to inform strategy and evaluate results. Higher education, nonprofit or other complex mission-driven organizational experience preferred.
We could list each as separate
- or combine into one? Better to split into logical items: Education, Experience (maybe multiple). But we must not lose detail. Could make a
with - for Education and then another
for Experience? But instruction: use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have a
for Qualifications with each qualification as - . That may be lengthy but okay.
Benefits: list: Free Tuition, Generous paid leave, Wellness initiatives, 100% Employer-Funded Health Reimbursement Account, 100% Employer-Paid Short & Long Term Disability Insurance, 100% Employer-Funded Employee Assistance Program, Discounted On-Campus Dining Meal Plans, Free On-Campus Parking, Access to Campus Amenities (pool, library, campus events, and more), Fitness Center, Pet Insurance, Flexible Spending Accounts, And more.
