We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if real specific content. We have content: description of role, responsibilities (list of duties), qualifications (required qualifications, preferred qualifications), benefits, compensation (pay). No schedule info. So we include About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe combine required qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe separate required vs preferred? The instruction: use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. Likely: About the role = overview paragraph. Responsibilities = bullet list of duties. Requirements = required qualifications (maybe bullet). Qualifications = preferred qualifications? Or Skills could be separate but we may not have explicit skills list; we could put skills under Qualifications. But we need to follow instruction: Use headings only when posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Could map Required Qualifications to "Requirements" heading, Preferred Qualifications to "Qualifications" heading. Skills maybe not present; we could omit Skills heading. Benefits heading present. Pay heading present. Schedule not present, omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can include them in a short p or drop. Probably drop. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Remove lines about Supporting People With Disabilities, Candidate Rights, Data Protection, etc. Also remove "We hire for skills and capabilities..." maybe keep? It's not boilerplate but could be considered encouraging to apply; but it's not a substantive detail? Might be considered fluff but it's part of posting. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "We hire for skills..." is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered generic encouraging statement; but it's not application instructions. Might keep? Safer to keep as part of About the role? It's a statement encouraging apply; maybe we can keep in About the role paragraph. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the compensation range, benefits description, etc. Let's extract sections. About the role: The first paragraph(s) describing purpose, role, etc. Could combine first few sentences up to "This leader will oversee a combined, high-performing team responsible for enterprise messaging strategy, colleague communications, culture programs, and company-wide strategic initiatives." That's overview. Responsibilities: The bullet points under Enterprise Narrative & Messaging Strategy, Colleague Communications, Culture Initiatives, Reputation Management & Narrative Integration, Strategic Enterprise Initiatives, Cross-Functional Collaboration & Alignment, Team Leadership & Development. Each has multiple sentences; we can turn each into list items. Requirements (Required Qualifications): List of bullet points: Bachelor’s degree..., 15+ years..., 5+ years..., Demonstrated experience..., Proven track record..., Strong executive presence..., Exceptional written..., Experience working..., Strong business acumen... Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications): Advanced degree..., Experience in biopharma..., Experience leading communications through organizational change..., Familiarity with global..., Experience with culture-building... Benefits: The paragraph about benefits: "Subject to the terms and conditions...". Also mention Flexible Time Off, holidays, etc. We'll keep as list maybe. Pay: The compensation overview: "$256,790 - $311,163" plus description about discretionary incentive cash and stock opportunities, etc. We'll keep as paragraph. We must not include schedule. We must output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Structure:
