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 when posting has real specific content. We have responsibilities (Essential Duties And Responsibilities). We have Minimum Qualifications (Qualifications). Preferred Qualifications (maybe separate). Physical Qualifications (maybe part of Requirements). Benefits: listed. Pay: compensation range given. Schedule: not given (no schedule info). So we should not include Schedule. Also maybe include About the role (intro paragraph). The intro: "Join Our Community of Food People! The Food Fanatics Chef partners..." That's about role. So we can put that in

About the role

with

. Then Responsibilities: list of duties. We need to extract bullet points. The responsibilities are long paragraphs; we can break into

  • items. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. We can create list items summarizing each duty but must not invent. Better to keep as paragraphs? The rule: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to convert duties into list items. We'll parse the responsibilities section and create list items for each distinct duty. Must not lose info. We'll try to capture key duties: - Direct customer consultation and relationship building (seeking new business, connecting with NBM, Sales, sales leadership) - Involvement in local restaurant community; cultivating relationships via local/national organizations - Develop meaningful relationships with US Foods customers by asking questions, identifying pain points, offering solutions; building over time; sound communication to close loop - Advance food culture of organization using existing/training materials, creating new materials, with program office, excellence team, Regional Culinary Managers; drive education, inspiration, adoption of exclusive products; demonstrate why of US Foods - Bring forth excellence in culinary demonstration; teach, connect, inspire; instill confidence; provide inspiration to customers - Identify culinary trends and industry conditions that may spur sales growth; bring ideas to local leadership/Regional Culinary Manager - Lead culinary vision, bring team together, participate/oversee execution of all food components at sales meetings and division events; focus on food-driven culture - Create complex/dynamic presentations; lead activities to bring culture to life - Plan, coordinate, execute events, product cuttings, sales conferences, general sales meetings (with area team) - Develop and conduct kitchen/operations assessments for customers; team up with sales support to build action plans for short/long-term opportunities - Deliver conclusions and present products that assist customer in achieving business goals - Utilize Menu Profit Pro to enrich customer experience via customized, costed recipes; have introductory conversation around Check Business Tools; collaborate with ROC partners - Engage and collaborate effectively in team-based selling approach via consistent use of Sous tool - Support priorities of commercial excellence team; work with category teams; provide training and support to sales; work with Regional Culinary Manager to craft/deliver training locally/regionally/nationally - Contribute to increase/maintain sales growth for division in top IR and national customers, focused on Exclusive Brands; via onsite operations assessments, customized culinary presentations in test kitchen, seller education, community connectivity; align with local sales leadership and Regional Culinary Manager - Lead all culinary training for area/market in support of strategic growth initiatives (e.g., Scoop); facilitation role in district/general sales meeting breakouts when culinary expertise vital - Work with area leadership, Regional Culinary Manager, regional/corporate key contacts to coordinate, execute, ensure success of meeting/training/event - Be food and brands leader among sales support roles; champion Scoop program; seek expansion of Scoop products locally - Support Food Fanatics program by participating in events (local, virtual, national); collaborate with peers across enterprise sharing best practices; leverage technology/virtual abilities to support customers/events outside local area (stop waste belief) - Bring contribution, feedback, ideas to Food Fanatics magazine; regularly contribute to program presence in social media; work with direction/feedback from Regional Culinary Manager, marketing teams, Digital and Social Media Manager - Seek to utilize social media, live, print media to increase recognition/reach of Food Fanatics program; consider behavior, tone, attitude, US Foods cultural beliefs; work closely with Culinary Field Lead, corporate communications, marketing, Digital and Social Media managers as required - May supervise a Part Time Market SOUS Chef - Internal relationships: Sales, Merchandising, Marketing, other Market Leaders; External: Chefs and other Customers - Work environment: Working in a kitchen environment either at the Distribution Center or a customer location. That's a lot but we can keep as list items. Now Requirements/Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications section includes: high degree written/verbal communication skills; tailor messages; intermediate proficiency in MS Excel, PowerPoint, Word; complete comprehensive training/on-boarding certification upon hire; refined organizational and project management skills; assert leadership abilities in planning/execution of high visibility high impact events (Food Fanatics Live) and communication campaigns; minimum 7 years relevant work experience including comprehensive culinary background; thorough knowledge of culinary, foodservice, hospitality fundamentals; marked passion for culinary arts and foodservice industry; assert expert level product knowledge/technique and applications; communicate/demonstrate knowledge across multiple formats (direct consultation, social media, live TV/media, presenting impactful material to large audiences); prior sales or sales support experience a plus; prior experience in design and facilitation of training programs to large varied audiences, aiming to drive innovation and sales strategies across assigned area, driving US Foods brand; Education: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience required; Certifications/Training: Chef Certification and Memberships in Local and National Culinary Organizations a plus. Preferred Qualifications: The posting says "Preferred Qualifications List the preferred qualifications for the position" but then no actual list; it's just a heading placeholder. So we should not include Preferred Qualifications section because no specific content. Similarly Physical Qualifications: there is a detailed list of physical activities with frequencies. That is substantive content. Should we include under Requirements? Could create a Requirements section with sublist? The rule: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can put physical qualifications as list items under Requirements. Also we could separate "Requirements" and "Qualifications". But we have both Minimum Qualifications and Physical Qualifications. Could combine into Qualifications section? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we have both Requirements and Qualifications as separate possible headings. We need to decide what goes where. Typically Requirements = minimum qualifications, Physical Qualifications maybe also Requirements. Qualifications could be preferred? But we have no preferred. We could put Minimum Qualifications under Qualifications, and Physical Qualifications under Requirements. Or we could put both under Qualifications. To follow instruction, we should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for Minimum Qualifications and Physical Qualifications. We could create a Qualifications section containing both education/experience etc and physical qualifications as sublist? But we need to use
        • for any list. Could nest? Probably better to have Qualifications section with
          • for each bullet (including physical). But physical qualifications are a list of activities with frequencies; we could still list them. Alternatively we could have Requirements section for physical qualifications and Qualifications section for education/experience etc. That seems reasonable. Thus:

            About the role

            ...

            Responsibilities

            • ...
            • ...

            Requirements

            • Physical ability to work in a kitchen environment...
            • ... list each physical activity with frequency.

            Qualifications

            • Minimum 7 years relevant work experience including comprehensive culinary background.
            • ... etc.
            We also need Skills? Not explicitly listed; maybe we can omit. Benefits: we have benefits list: health insurance, pre-tax spending accounts, retirement benefits, paid time off, short-term and long-term disability, employee stock purchase plan, life insurance. Also link to benefits page but we should not include application instructions; the link is for benefits review, maybe we can keep as part of benefits? It's not application instruction; it's a link to benefits. We can include as part of benefits description: "Benefits for this role may include health insurance, pre-tax spending accounts, retirement benefits, paid time off, short-term and long-term disability, employee stock purchase plan, and life insurance. To review available benefits, please click here: https://www.usfoods.com/careers/benefits.html". That's not application instruction; it's okay to keep. Pay: compensation range $75,000 - $120,000 base rate. Also statement about compensation depends on factors. We'll include Pay section with that info. Schedule: none -> omit. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not include. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove that line at end. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft. About the role paragraph: combine intro sentences: "Join Our Community of Food People! The Food Fanatics Chef partners with area leadership, sales and support teams to build value and grow customer relationships and affects profitable sales growth. They achieve this by serving as consultants and culinary experts to drive customer business success; lead product and sales training as appropriate, drive engagement and participation in strategic growth initiatives and share the knowledge gained through the Food Fanatics program, events and team of chefs to benefit the area." We'll put that in

            . Now Responsibilities list items: need to capture all duties. We'll produce concise but comprehensive items. Let's draft list: - Direct customer consultation and relationship building: seek new business with consistent connection to New Business Manager, Sales, and sales leadership; cultivate relationships within the local restaurant community via local and national organizations. - Develop meaningful relationships with US Foods customers by asking questions, identifying pain points, offering mutually beneficial solutions; build relationships over time using sound communication practices to close the loop with sellers and others. - Advance the food culture of the organization: use existing sales and training materials, create new materials as needed, work with program office, excellence team, and Regional Culinary Managers to drive education, inspiration, and adoption of exclusive products and demonstrate the “why” of US Foods. - Excel in culinary demonstration: teach, connect, and inspire to instill confidence and provide inspiration for US Foods customers. - Identify culinary trends and industry conditions that may spur sales growth and bring these ideas to local leadership or the Regional Culinary Manager. - Lead the culinary vision: bring together the team, participate in, and oversee execution of all food components at sales meetings and division events with a focus on creating a food‑driven culture. - Create complex, dynamic presentations and lead activities that bring the food‑driven culture to life; plan, coordinate, and execute events, product cuttings, sales conferences, and general sales meetings with the area team. - Develop and conduct kitchen/operations assessments for customers; partner with the sales support team to build action plans that address short‑ and long‑term opportunities. - Deliver conclusions and present products that assist customers in achieving business goals. - Utilize Menu Profit Pro to enrich the customer experience with customized, costed recipes; hold introductory conversations around Check Business Tools and collaborate frequently with Restaurant Operations Consultant (ROC) partners. - Engage and collaborate effectively in a team‑based selling approach through consistent use of the Sous tool. - Support the priorities of the commercial excellence team: work with category teams, provide training and support to sales, and collaborate with the Regional Culinary Manager to craft and deliver training locally, regionally, and/or nationally as needed. - Contribute to increasing and maintaining sales growth for the division in top independent restaurants and national customers, focusing on Exclusive Brands through onsite operations assessments, customized culinary presentations in the division test kitchen, seller education,
