ManagementFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description: "The Facilities Maintenance Manager will assist in directing, supervising, and coordinating all phases of facilities maintenance and new construction at Mid-America Adventure." That's about the role. Then Responsibilities: list of duties. Then Requirements: qualifications. Then maybe Benefits? Not present. Pay? Not present. Schedule? Not present. So we include sections only if content present: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications? Actually they have Required Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Experience and Knowledge, Skills & Abilities and Physical Requirements. Could combine into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, maybe Physical Requirements could be under Skills? But better to have separate sections: Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred experience), Skills (knowledge, skills & abilities), Physical Requirements maybe as its own? Not listed but could be under Skills? But we can include Physical Requirements as a separate section if content present. The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Physical Requirements is present. So we can have a section Physical Requirements. However heading list didn't include Physical Requirements but we can still use? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The e.g. suggests those are examples but not exclusive? Probably they expect those headings only. But they said "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The e.g. suggests those are examples but not exclusive? Probably they expect those headings only. But they said "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That implies those are the allowed headings. So we should map content to those headings. Physical Requirements could go under Skills? Or maybe under Requirements? But better to put under Skills? However Skills heading is for knowledge, skills & abilities. Physical Requirements is separate. Could we omit Physical Requirements section? It says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we omit Physical Requirements, we lose that info. But we could incorporate Physical Requirements into Skills section as a bullet list? Might be acceptable. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Physical Requirements into Skills or Requirements. Let's decide: We'll have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred experience), Skills (knowledge, skills & abilities, plus physical requirements). That covers all.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from each bullet.
Let's extract:
