Executive Chef

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes many duties/responsibilities, requirements, skills, etc. No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule given. So we should not include those sections. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate (EEO etc). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to decide sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe experience/education), Qualifications (maybe similar), Skills (maybe core competencies). The posting includes "Core Competencies" and "Required Skills & Experience". Also "Physical Requirements". We could treat Physical Requirements as part of Requirements or separate? The instruction says use headings for section headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can include those that have content. We have: - About the role: The first paragraph: "The Executive Chef of The Club is responsible for the overall culinary and financial performance of the restaurant. This leader oversees menu development, operational excellence, innovation, financial stewardship, talent development, food safety, and purchasing strategy, while protecting the long-term integrity and reputation of the brand. The Executive Chef partners closely with ownership and senior leadership, executive finance team, and the General Manager to achieve profitability without compromising standards or quality." That's prose. - Responsibilities: The "Duties & Responsibilities" section with many bullet-like paragraphs. We can convert each bullet into

• . The content includes many sub-sections: Full Financial Accountability, Culinary Responsibility, Talent Development & Recruitment, Operational Excellence, Vendor & Supply Chain Relationships, Brand Stewardship & Public Presence, Culture Building & BHC Company Values, Strategic Growth & Interdepartmental Leadership, General Manager Partnership, Performance Metrics, Core Competencies? Actually Core Competencies is separate. But we can include them under Responsibilities or maybe separate Skills. We need to decide: The instruction says use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can treat each duty as list item. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include each bullet point as separate list item, preserving the text. We also have "Required Skills & Experience" which is a list of requirements. That could go under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll put under Requirements. We have "Core Competencies" which could go under Skills. We have "Physical Requirements" which could go under Requirements as well (maybe separate but we can include under Requirements). However we need to avoid creating sections with filler like "not specified". Physical Requirements is specific, so we can include under Requirements or maybe a separate section? The allowed headings list does not include Physical Requirements, but we can fold into Requirements. We also have "Performance Metrics Success In This Role Is Measured By ..." That could be part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Performance Metrics". Not in allowed headings; we could include under Responsibilities as a list item. We must not repeat the job title as heading. Already not. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is EEO duplicated; we remove. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content. First, About the role paragraph: as above. Now Responsibilities: Let's list each bullet from "Duties & Responsibilities". The text includes headings like "Full Financial Accountability", then colon and list. We need to capture each item.
