We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Must include headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use for each heading. Use
for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Equal Employment Opportunity" etc. Also remove location? Location is given but not a heading; we can include as short
maybe. The location line: "Location: Hybrid remote/in-office. Medidata follows a hybrid office policy..." We can include that as a paragraph.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We have content for About the role? The posting includes "About Medidata", "About The Team", description of role. Could treat that as About the role. We'll create
About the role
with paragraphs summarizing the description (but must not summarize away detail; we need to preserve all substantive info. However we can paraphrase? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should not omit details, but we can rephrase? Safer to keep the original sentences but maybe break into paragraphs. We can copy the relevant text about the role: The Senior Director, Strategic Win Back & Growth will lead... etc. That's a lot. We'll include that as prose under About the role.
Responsibilities: there is a big list of responsibilities with headings like "Build and Lead the Global Win Back Team", "Own Strategic Competitive Displacement", etc. Those are subheadings but we can treat each bullet as list items. We'll create - for each responsibility bullet. The responsibilities are given as paragraphs with bold headings. We'll extract each responsibility as list items.
Requirements: The posting includes "Qualifications" section with bullet-like sentences. Also there is "What Success Looks Like" etc. But Requirements likely refers to qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. The posting has "Qualifications" with bullet points. It also has "What Success Looks Like" (maybe not needed). There's no explicit Skills section. There's Benefits described later. Pay described. Schedule not mentioned (maybe hybrid remote/in-office). That could be schedule? But schedule is about work schedule; not given. We'll not create Schedule section unless there is specific content. There's location/hybrid policy; could be considered schedule? But it's not explicit schedule like "full-time". We'll omit Schedule.
We need Benefits: The posting mentions benefits: medical, dental, life and disability insurance, 401(k) matching, family leave, flexible paid time off, 10 paid holidays per year. Also mention base salary plus commission/bonus. We'll create Benefits section with list.
Pay: The posting includes base salary range $139,000 to $186,000. Also mention commission/bonus. We'll create Pay section with that info.
Requirements: Could be the qualifications bullet list? But we also have Qualifications heading. Might duplicate. Perhaps Requirements = mandatory requirements (like Bachelor's degree required; 10+ years experience). Qualifications = preferred qualifications (MBA preferred). But we can combine? The instruction: Use headings for each if content present. We'll create both Requirements and Qualifications sections, splitting the bullet list accordingly.
We need to decide what goes into Requirements vs Qualifications. The posting says: "Qualifications Bachelor's degree required; MBA or equivalent advanced business experience preferred.10+ years of progressive experience in enterprise sales, strategic accounts, business development, commercial strategy, consulting, or customer transformation, preferably within life sciences technology, healthcare technology, or enterprise software.Demonstrated success winning complex enterprise accounts, displacing competitors, expanding strategic relationships, or recovering lost business.Proven ability to engage credibly with C-suite and senior executive stakeholders.Strong understanding of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical development, or life sciences technology ecosystem.Demonstrated experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder sales pursuits involving multiple products, functions, and/or business units.Strong commercial judgment, account strategy, negotiation, and executive communication skills.Experience orchestrating cross-functional teams without relying solely on direct reporting relationships.Demonstrated ability to operate effectively in a complex matrixed organization.Strong analytical skills with the ability to turn customer, market, and competitive intelligence into actionable sales strategies.Comfortable operating in ambiguous, high-priority situations where speed, judgment, and influence are essential.Willingness to travel extensively for strategic customer engagements as required."
We can treat the first sentence as Requirements (Bachelor's degree required; 10+ years experience) and the rest as Qualifications (MBA preferred, etc). But also many of those are requirements. However we need to follow instruction: create sections only when posting has real specific content. We'll create both.
Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we can omit Skills section.
Now we need to remove boilerplate: The EEO paragraph, "Equal Employment Opportunity Medidata is committed..." etc. Also "We will accept applications on an ongoing basis until we fill this p" (cut off). Remove.
Also remove duplicated lines? Not seeing duplicates.

About the role
... (the description about the role)
Responsibilities
- Build and Lead the Global Win Back Team: Build and lead a small, high-performance Win Back Team focused specifically on competitive displacement, strategic account recovery, and share expansion. Establish the team's operating model, account-selection criteria, priorities, metrics, and engagement methodology. Build a disciplined portfolio of priority accounts based on revenue potential, strategic importance, competitive position, customer relationships, timing, and probability of win. Partner with Sales and Strategic Account leaders to establish clear ownership and engagement models for each target account. Assemble the right resources around each opportunity, including Transformation Architects, Senior Product Experts, Solution Experience Specialists, Value/ROI resources, Product leaders, executives, and relevant Dassault Systèmes brands. Create a repeatable Win Back methodology that can scale across geographies, segments, and strategic accounts.
- Own Strategic Competitive Displacement: Develop deep intelligence on priority accounts, including customer strategy, organizational dynamics, incumbent relationships, buying criteria, competitive positioning, historical Medidata relationships, and reasons for loss. Identify the root causes of competitive displacement and define specific strategies to overcome them. Develop account-specific win strategies, including customer hypotheses, executive engagement plans, competitive positioning, value propositions, solution architecture, commercial strategy, and close plans. Identify transformation triggers and business events that create an opportunity to re-enter an account. Build and maintain competitive intelligence that can improve win rates across the broader sales organization. Challenge conventional sales approaches and identify creative pathways back into accounts where Medidata has lost position or been displaced.
- Drive Executive-Level Selling and Customer Engagement: Personally engage with C-suite and senior executives at priority accounts to understand strategic business challenges and position Medidata as a transformation partner. Develop trusted relationships with senior customer stakeholders across R&D, Clinical Development, Technology, Data, Operations, Commercial, and Finance. Create executive-level conversations that move beyond individual products toward enterprise transformation and measurable business outcomes. Prepare Medidata and Dassault Systèmes executives for critical customer engagements and orchestrate executive-to-executive relationships. Serve as a senior commercial leader in the most strategic and complex customer situations.
- Create Compelling Enterprise Value Propositions: Translate customer priorities and competitive vulnerabilities into differentiated Medidata and Dassault Systèmes solutions. Bring together capabilities across Medidata and relevant Dassault Systèmes brands to solve enterprise customer problems. Develop account-specific value propositions and business cases that demonstrate measurable customer outcomes. Partner with Value, Solution Consulting, Product, Offering Management, and Marketing teams to create compelling commercial propositions. Identify opportunities to expand from individual Medidata solutions into broader enterprise relationships across the Dassault Systèmes Life Sciences portfolio.
- Turn Win Back Opportunities Into Revenue: Maintain clear commercial accountability for the Win Back portfolio, including pipeline creation, qualified opportunities, competitive displacement, bookings/revenue, and account expansion. Establish measurable targets and dashboards for Win Back performance. Maintain rigorous opportunity reviews and deal progression across priority accounts. Identify stalled opportunities, remove organizational barriers, and mobilize the appropriate leadership to accelerate deals. Develop and execute pursuit strategies for high-value, high-complexity opportunities. Partner with Sales leadership on forecasting, opportunity qualification, commercial strategy, negotiations, and close plans. Ensure that successful Win Back strategies are converted into repeatable plays for the broader field organization.
- Partner With — and Strengthen — the Sales Organization: Work as a strategic extension of Sales rather than as a parallel sales organization. Partner with account executives, Strategic Account leaders, regional sales leaders, and executive sponsors to determine where the Win Back Team can materially increase the probability of winning. Establish clear engagement criteria, account ownership, hand-offs, and decision rights between the Win Back Team and field sales. Coach and enable account teams on competitive displacement and complex enterprise selling. Transfer successful strategies, customer insights, competitive intelligence, and sales plays back into the broader organization. Build strong relationships across Sales, Strategic Accounts, Solution Consulting, Product, Marketing, Value, Customer Success, and Dassault Systèmes brands.
- Expand the Opportunity Beyond the Initial Win: Develop strategies to expand recovered accounts from a single product or solution into broader enterprise relationships. Identify cross-sell, upsell, platform, and cross-brand opportunities within strategic accounts. Develop long-term account growth strategies in partnership with Sales and Strategic Account leadership. Use Win Back engagements to strengthen customer relationships and reduce future competitive displacement risk. Identify patterns across recovered accounts that can inform broader retention, expansion, and growth strategies.
