We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes sections: ABOUT QUINCE, OUR CULTURE, THE ROLE, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay Range, WHY QUINCE?, EQUAL OPPORTUNITY & HIRING INTEGRITY, Security Advisory etc. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we should drop EQUAL OPPORTUNITY & HIRING INTEGRITY and Security Advisory. Also drop duplicated Pay Range lines (two occurrences). Keep one Pay Range section if present. Also need to include sections only when real specific content. So we need sections: About the role? Actually we have "THE ROLE" heading with description. Could map to "About the role". Use

About the role

and then paragraph(s). Also "Responsibilities" heading with list. "Qualifications" heading with required and preferred lists. "Pay" heading with pay range. "Benefits"? Not present. "Schedule"? Not present. "Why Quince?" could be a section maybe "Why Quince?" but heading must be from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The list does not include "Why Quince?" but we could treat as "About the role"? Actually "Why Quince?" is more like company sell. Could be omitted? The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. It didn't say we must limit to those headings; it says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). That suggests we can use those headings, but we could also use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. ...). Likely they expect we map content to those headings where appropriate. "Why Quince?" could be considered "About the role"? Not exactly. Could be omitted? Might be considered fluff but it's substantive. However the allowed headings list does not include a "Why Quince?" but we could still use

Why Quince?

as it's a section heading. The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The e.g. implies those are examples, not exhaustive. So we can use any heading but must be

. Safer to include "Why Quince?" as a section. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Head of Inventory Control and Strategy". Already appears in THE ROLE section; we should not add another heading for it. We need to preserve all substantive information. Remove duplicated lines: Pay Range appears twice; keep one. We need to format lists with
  • . For responsibilities, we have bullet points (some are long sentences). We'll convert each line starting with a bullet (maybe dash) into
  • . The responsibilities block includes multiple paragraphs; we need to extract each bullet. Let's parse responsibilities: "Responsibilities Inventory Accuracy & Shrink Control Own book vs. physical accuracy targets across all global nodes Shrink control frameworks — identifying, quantifying, and remediating inventory loss at every point of the supply chain Cycle Count Governance Execute the global cycle count cadence strategy Oversee counts and audit protocols across all facilities and 3PL partners Reconciliation & Adjustment Root Cause Own the inventory adjustment governance model Drive cross-functional root cause analysis on systemic variances across all functions Maintain SOX-compliant inventory controls, including documented approval thresholds, audit trails for adjustments, and segregation of duties across the reconciliation process Reduce unresolved adjustment volume quarter over quarter with measurable targets WMS Integrity Ensure inventory records in WMS accurately reflect physical reality at all times Partner with technology and operations teams to identify and close data integrity gaps, latency issues, and process breakdowns within the WMS Global SOP Design & Process Infrastructure Author and maintain the global inventory control SOP library — policies, procedures, escalation paths, and training frameworks Drive consistency of execution across domestic and international nodes" We need to treat each line as a bullet. Some lines are headings like "Inventory Accuracy & Shrink Control". Those could be considered subheadings but we can still make them list items. Might be better to group? But instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a flat list. Similarly Qualifications: Required: list items after "Required:" and Preferred: after "Preferred:". Let's extract. Required: - 7+ years in inventory control, fulfillment operations, or supply chain at a high-volume retailer, e-commerce operator, or logistics company - Experience maintaining SOX compliance for inventory processes, including control documentation and coordination with internal/external audit - Deep WMS expertise, having configured, audited, and conducted troubleshooting of WMS inventory records, not just used the system - Proven ability to build global or multi-site SOPs from scratch and drive adoption across distributed teams - Strong analytics literacy: you can write SQL, build a reconciliation model in a spreadsheet, and tell a story with inventory data without needing a data analyst as an intermediary - Experience managing 3PL relationships and holding external partners accountable Preferred: - Experience operating across international fulfillment nodes (APAC, EMEA, or global 3PL networks) - Familiarity with a variety of WMS platforms - Background in audit, finance-adjacent inventory controls, or shrink investigation Pay Range: $170,000-$220,000 (USD). Also note "All posted ranges are reflective of base salary and may vary depending upon experience level and location. Bonus and equity may also be provided for eligible roles." That's substantive; we should include that in Pay section. Why Quince? paragraph: "Joining Quince means being part of a mission-driven team reshaping retail. You will work alongside talented colleagues, tackle meaningful challenges, and contribute to building a more sustainable, accessible future for customers and partners alike." We also have initial ABOUT QUINCE and OUR CULTURE paragraphs. Those are about company; could be placed under "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is supposed to describe the role, not company. But we have no separate "About the company" heading allowed. However we could include them under "About the role"? Might be misrepresent. But we could create a section "About Quince" using

      About Quince

      though not in examples but allowed. The instruction says use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings. So we can add About Quince and Our Culture maybe combined. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include the ABOUT QUINCE and OUR CULTURE paragraphs somewhere. Could make a section "About Quince" with those two paragraphs. Thus final HTML will have sections:

      About Quince

      ... (ABOUT QUINCE paragraph)

      ... (OUR CULTURE paragraph)

      We should not include EEO etc. Check for duplicate content: we included ABOUT QUINCE and OUR CULTURE paragraphs exactly as in text. Let's copy them: ABOUT QUINCE paragraph: "Quince is a destination for builders, creators, innovators, and operators who want to come together and challenge the status quo. Our mission is simple: make really high quality essentials for really low prices, fairly and sustainably. We deliver on that mission through a unique manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) model eliminating the layers of traditional retail that add cost and result in consumers paying more than they need to. We find, build relationships with, and work directly with the manufacturing partners behind some of the world’s finest products. From there, our teams design smart, efficient operational processes and build and deploy proprietary technology, AI, and analytics to help us scale fast.
