The posting includes: Excellent verbal, written and presentation skills; Ability to work collaboratively; Ability to travel; Ability and willingness to work weekends and evenings; Advanced proficiency in Microsoft 365.

So Benefits section. - Pay: Salary Range: $80,717 - $90,000. Also note offer determined by education etc. So Pay section. - Schedule: not mentioned besides ability to work weekends/evenings as required. That's more about schedule flexibility but not explicit schedule. Probably we should not create Schedule section because no specific schedule info.

We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines. Also remove "Additional Information Salary Range: $80,717 - $90,000" duplicate. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract content.
