We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: Intro paragraph about Kenco: "At Kenco Logistics, you’re more than just a team member—you’re part of a company that values innovation, integrity, and a strong commitment to its people. As one of the leading 3PL providers in the U.S., Kenco offers a dynamic and supportive work environment where your ideas matter and your growth is a priority. With a focus on safety, sustainability, and continuous improvement, Kenco empowers employees to make a real impact in the supply chain industry while building rewarding careers. Join a company where your contributions help move the world forward—one shipment at a time." That's about the company, could be "About the role"? Actually "About The Position" heading appears later. The intro is more about company. Could be placed under "About the role" or maybe we treat as "About the role". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have "About the role" heading and include that intro paragraph. Then "About The Position" heading in source: we can treat that as part of responsibilities? Actually "About The Position" is a heading but we should not repeat job title as heading. The content under that heading describes the role responsibilities. So we can put that under "Responsibilities". The text: "The Inventory Control Lead is responsible for acting as a coach/leader of Inventory Clerks. The Inventory Control Lead is responsible for coaching and training teammates as well as fulfilling their own assigned duties. The Lead may have various responsibilities including, but not limited to, inventory control, inventory control reporting, general warehouse functions, material handling operations (e.g., forklift operation)." Then a list of functions (Assists Supervisor..., etc). Those are duties. Thus we can create

Responsibilities

with a
  • list of duties. Need to preserve all substantive info; we should not lose any details. We'll need to convert the paragraph sentences into list items maybe. But we can also keep prose

    for overview and then list for specifics. The instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we can have a

      summarizing the role, then a

        for the list of duties. Let's extract duties list: - Assists Supervisor with physical inventories and cycle counts of both inbound and outbound product to ensure inventory accuracy in the network or at a site. - Supports Supervisor in directing inventory staff in the completion of work. - Supports training and adherence to all corporate and site level procedures and policies, and Standard Work as outlined in the Kenco Quality Management System (KQMS) in addition to the Employee Involvement Program, Labor Management, LEAN, and Six Sigma manufacturing processes. - Ensures operational/customer issues are communicated and met as required. - Participates in root cause analysis of inventory discrepancies, including research and resolution. - Uses various problem-solving tools such as Continuous Improvement and LEAN Six Sigma tools/methodology to determine root cause and resolution. - Consolidates and reports on quality hold product, if applicable. - Assists with stow consolidations to create space in the warehouse as needed. - Safely operates powered industrial equipment to move products or materials for distribution such as clamp/slip sheet equipment, order picker; load, unload, and stores materials/products in designated areas. - Supports the operation to ensure facility is always inspection-ready for ISO, FDA, and customer needs. - Reviews and analyzes daily inventory reports. - Serves as backup to other warehouse roles, as appropriate. - Assists as needed with inbound and outbound functions. - Performs other related duties as assigned. That's a lot; we need to keep all. Now Qualifications section: The posting has "Qualifications" heading with bullet-like sentences: "High School Diploma or GED preferred and be able to pass a background check and drug screen. 2-4 years of prior inventory and/or warehouse/distribution operations experience and 6 months related leadership or supervisory experience and/or training in a distribution environment. Warehouse Inventory Management System knowledge preferred. Basic computer skills including Microsoft Office with emphasis on Excel. Attention to detail. Must be a licensed forklift operator or be able to obtain a forklift operator license." We can put these as
        • under Requirements or Qualifications? The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use. The posting has "Qualifications". We'll use

          Qualifications

          for that list. Could also have "Requirements" but we already have Qualifications. We'll not duplicate. Competencies section: after Qualifications there is "Competencies" with list: "Action Oriented – Taking on new opportunities/tough challenges with sense of urgency, high energy, enthusiasm. Collaborates – Building partnerships and working collaboratively with other to meet shared objectives. Decision Quality – Making good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward. Optimize Work Processes – Knowing the most effective and efficient processes to get things done, with a focus on continuous improvement. Situational Adaptability – Adapting approach/demeanor in real time to match shifting situational demands." These could be under Skills heading. The instruction includes Skills as a possible heading. We'll put those under

          Skills

          as list. Travel Requirements: "Travel Requirements This position is expected to travel approximately 25% or less.A passport is not required but recommended." This is travel info; could be under Schedule? Not exactly. There's no Pay or Schedule specifics. The posting does not mention pay or schedule. So we should NOT create Pay or Schedule sections because they are not stated. So we omit those. Benefits: There's a "Benefits Offered" section with list: "Medical insurance including HSA, HRA and FSA accounts Supplemental insurance including critical illness, hospital indemnity, accidental injury Dental Insurance Vision Insurance Basic Life and Supplemental Life Short Term and Long Term Disability Paid Parental Leave 401(k) Paid Time Off approximately 2 weeks (accrual begins on Day 1 of employment) Employer Paid Holidays- 10 days" We'll put under

          Benefits

          as list. We also have some other paragraphs about company values after benefits: "Kenco strives to provide a supportive, professional environment for all employees. As a part of Kenco, we expect our team to uphold our three key pillars: be honest, serve, and get better. Each should strive for operational excellence, pursue innovation, and want to grow with our company." This is more about company culture; could be included under About the role maybe as additional prose. We'll incorporate into About the role paragraph. Also there is EEO boilerplate etc which we must remove. We must not include any navigation, legal, EEO, etc. So we strip out all that. Now produce HTML fragment:
