We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Position Summary" etc. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse content. First, there is an introductory paragraph: "At PBI-Gordon Companies, and our subsidiaries PBI-Gordon Corporation, Pegasus Laboratories, and PetAg, Inc, our priority is people, pets, and the places they go. As employee owners, we support each other in building our careers as well as our companies. Our foundation is rooted in integrity, innovation, partnership, and pride. Come grow with us! Reports to: Sr Director QHS&E" We can treat that as "About the role" maybe. The "Position Summary" is a paragraph: "The EHS manager will be responsible for developing and implementing health and safety programs across the four subsidiaries of PBI Gordon Companies. The successful candidate will have a proactive mindset and focus on creating a strong safety culture, measured through Safety KPIs. This role has six direct reports and partners closely with leaders and employees across the business to create a safe, compliant, and positive work environment." That's also about role. We can combine into About the role. Then "Compensation & Benefits" section includes details: Employee Ownership (ESOP): Company-funded retirement contribution of approximately 18% of pay, plus 401(k); Competitive base salary with performance-based bonus opportunity; Comprehensive benefits package: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Disability, FSA, and Pet Insurance; Generous paid time off, paid holidays, and parental leave; Fitness and tuition reimbursement programs. We have specific benefits details later in the posting: many paragraphs about benefits. So we can have Benefits section with list. Pay: The posting mentions "Competitive base salary with performance-based bonus opportunity" but no specific numbers. The rule says: never emit a 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 the posting actually states them. For Pay, we have "Competitive base salary with performance-based bonus opportunity" which is vague but still states something about pay. Is that considered filler? It's not a specific number but it's a statement about pay. The rule says avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". "Competitive base salary with performance-based bonus opportunity" is somewhat generic but not exactly those placeholders. It might be acceptable. However we also have ESOP details etc. Might be better to include Pay section with that sentence. Schedule: No mention of schedule (like full-time, shift, etc). There's mention of "Full-time employees will become eligible..." but not schedule specifics. So we should not create Schedule section. Qualifications: There's "Required Qualifications" with Education, Experience, Skills & Abilities. We can split into Requirements (maybe education+experience) and Skills. But the headings allowed: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. We have "Required Qualifications" heading in posting. Under that: Education: Bachelor’s degree... Experience: Minimum of 7-10 years progressive EHS leadership experience... Demonstrated experience supporting multiple manufacturing facilities. Experience in GMP environment or facility, preferred. Skills & Abilities: Strong working knowledge of OSHA, EPA, DOT, and applicable regulatory requirements. Proven experience leading incident investigations utilizing root cause analysis methodologies. Demonstrated ability to influence leaders without direct authority. Strong project management, organizational, and change management skills. Excellent communication, coaching, and presentation skills. Ability to travel 25% to four subsidiaries in USA and Ireland. Professional certification (ASP, CSP, CHMM, CIH, or similar). We can treat Education+Experience as "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The allowed headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could put Education+Experience under "Requirements" and Skills & Abilities under "Skills". Or we could put all under "Qualifications". But we need to avoid thin sections. Probably better: Requirements (Education & Experience) and Skills (Skills & Abilities). Also we have "Work Environment & Culture" paragraph which could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section but not in allowed headings. Could incorporate into About the role. We also have "Essential Duties & Responsibilities" with subheadings: Safety Leadership, Team Effectiveness & Engagement, Partnership, Preparation & Communication, Safety Responsibilities. That's a list of duties. We'll put under Responsibilities section as a
  • . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points from duties.
