We need to output HTML fragment with sections only where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to extract content from posting.
Let's parse the posting:
- "Who we are": description of company. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is a heading for description of role. The "Who we are" is about company, not role. Might fit under "About the role"? Usually "About the role" includes purpose and context. The posting has "Purpose of the Role" and then description. So we can put that under "About the role". Also "Who we are" could be considered company overview; but we only have allowed headings; we could put it under "About the role" as part of description. Or we could skip if not directly about role. But we need to preserve substantive info; we can include company description under About the role.
- "Purpose of the Role": description.
- "Role Dimensions": reporting line, travel, etc. Could be part of About the role or Responsibilities.
- "Principal Responsibilities": list of duties.
- Then "Knowledge, Skills, Qualifications and Experience": includes Essential and Desirable bullet points.
- Then "What You'll Bring": more personal attributes.
- Then "What's in it for you? (Benefits will vary depending on where you are based)": list of benefits.
- Then other sections like AI Usage, equal opportunity, pre-employment checks, talent pool: these are boilerplate to remove.
We must not include sections with placeholder/filler like "commensurate with experience". Benefits list seems specific: Flexible working, performance-based discretionary annual bonus, medical insurance, life and accident insurance, gratuity, 10 days annual leave plus 6 days sick leave, 10 public holidays, Fully paid Selfie Time (5 days), team and company events, Annual learning and development budget. Those are specific.
Pay and Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Knowledge, Skills, Qualifications and Experience), Benefits. Possibly Skills separate? But we have allowed headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The posting lumps Knowledge, Skills, Qualifications and Experience. We could split into Requirements (essential) and Desirable? But better to follow allowed headings: we can use "Requirements" for essential, "Qualifications" for education/degree, "Skills" for skills. However the posting includes essential: Law degree, 5-8 years experience, strong understanding, excellent written/verbal, analytical skills, commercial awareness, experience with senior stakeholders, ability to manage priorities, excellent English, willingness to travel. Desirable: Master's degree, understanding of digital identity, Spanish language, familiarity with regulations, awareness of trust frameworks, experience with gov consultations, interest in AI governance, biometrics, etc., experience using AI-enabled tools.
We could map: Requirements = essential experience/skills; Qualifications = law degree (maybe also Master's desirable); Skills = specific knowledge areas (digital identity, etc.) But we need to avoid filler. Let's decide to use:
- About the role: includes Who we are, Purpose of the Role, Role Dimensions.
- Responsibilities: Principal Responsibilities list.
- Requirements: Essential bullet points.
- Qualifications: Law degree (essential) and maybe Master's desirable? Could put both under Qualifications.
- Skills: Desirable bullet points (knowledge, language, etc.) plus maybe some skills from essential like analytical, communication.
But we must not create sections with filler. Ensure each section has real content.
Let's extract content precisely.
