We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real specific content. The posting includes Overview, ROLE OBJECTIVES + KEY RESPONSIBILITIES (with subpoints), Skills And Qualifications (Experience, Skills, Other Requirements). Also includes Compensation Is Commensurate With Experience And Qualifications (but that is vague, not specific numbers, so we should NOT include Pay section because it's just "commensurate with experience". According to rules: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". So we should not include Pay section. Benefits not mentioned. Schedule not mentioned (though travel required, nights/weekends mentioned under Other Requirements). That could be considered Schedule? It says "Regional and local travel is required. Work as needed at events on nights and weekends." That's schedule info. Should we include a Schedule section? The rule: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — 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. Here schedule is stated: travel required, work nights/weekends. That's specific enough. So we can include a Schedule section with that content.
Benefits: not mentioned, so omit.
Pay: only "Compensation Is Commensurate With Experience And Qualifications." That's placeholder, so omit.
We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections that have real content. The posting includes Overview (could be About the role). Then ROLE OBJECTIVES + KEY RESPONSIBILITIES (Responsibilities). Then Skills And Qualifications (which includes Experience, Skills, Other Requirements). Could split into Experience, Skills, Qualifications? The headings list includes Qualifications and Skills separate. We could put Experience under Qualifications? Or we could have a Qualifications section containing Experience and Other Requirements, and a Skills section for skills. Let's interpret: The posting has "Skills And Qualifications" heading with subparts: Experience, Skills, Other Requirements. So we can create a Qualifications section for Experience and Other Requirements, and a Skills section for the Skills list.
We also need About the role: from Overview paragraph.
Responsibilities: from ROLE OBJECTIVES + KEY RESPONSIBILITIES (including bullet points). We'll need to convert to
- .
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes "Equal Employment Opportunity FIDF is an equal opportunity employer..." That's EEO boilerplate, must remove. Also "Compensation Is Commensurate With Experience And Qualifications." we already decided to omit Pay section, but the sentence itself is boilerplate-ish; we should remove it entirely (since we are not including Pay). Also "Overview" heading maybe not needed as heading; we will use About the role.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's draft:
maybe not needed; just headings and content.
We'll do:

Qualifications
Experience: 7-10+ years of experience supporting senior executives or C-Level executives and in leading large-scale events from inception to wrap-up. Background in managing meeting preparation and calendar management.
Other Requirements: Regional and local travel is required. Work as needed at events on nights and weekends. This role is integral to the success of FIDF Western Region’s operations and development activities. If you are a proactive and detail-oriented professional with a passion for supporting executive leadership and fostering collaboration, we encourage you to apply.
But note: The "If you are a proactive..." is more like a call to action; could be considered boilerplate? It's not exactly EEO but it's encouraging to apply. The instruction says remove application instructions. That sentence is basically an encouragement to apply; could be considered application instruction. Safer to remove it. Also "This role is integral to the success..." maybe keep as part of Other Requirements? It's descriptive. Might keep. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. The encouragement to apply is not substantive about the job; it's application instruction. So we should remove that sentence. Also "This role is integral to the success..." is somewhat fluff but still describes role importance; could keep. Let's keep Other Requirements as: Regional and local travel is required. Work as needed at events on nights and weekends. This role is integral to the success of FIDF Western Region’s operations and development activities. Now Skills section:Skills
