We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Required Skills & Qualifications (maybe as Requirements or Qualifications), Benefits (maybe Workwize Offers includes salary etc). Also Pay range is given, so we need a Pay section. Schedule? Not mentioned. Benefits: list items from Workwize Offers. Also maybe "What Makes You Shine" could be part of Qualifications? But we should only include sections with real content. The posting includes "About the Role" heading; we need to use for section headings. So we will have
for section headings. So we will have About the Role
with prose.
Then Responsibilities
with - items.
Then
Requirements
or Qualifications
. The posting has "Required Skills & Qualifications". We'll use Qualifications
(or Requirements). Use list.
Then Benefits
with list from Workwize Offers.
Then Pay
with the salary range.
We must not repeat job title. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate like LinkedIn recognition? That's part of About the role? It's at start: "LinkedIn has also recognized Workwize as one of the Top 10 Startups for 2025 in the Netherlands!" That's substantive info about company; we can include in About the Role paragraph.
We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points from Responsibilities, Required Skills & Qualifications, Workwize Offers, Pay range.
We must not include sections like Schedule if not present.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences.
Let's extract content.
About the Role: The paragraph after "About the Role" includes multiple sentences. Also earlier paragraphs about company mission etc. Should we include those? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information". The earlier paragraphs before "About the Role" are also substantive about company. Should we include them? The section heading "About the Role" is specified; but we could also include a general intro before that? 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, but we should follow those headings. Likely they want sections exactly those headings. The intro about company could be placed under About the Role as prose. So we combine company description and role description into About the Role paragraph.
Thus About the Role paragraph: combine:
"At Workwize, we're helping IT teams to easily equip their remote and global teams with all necessary IT equipment. Our automated SaaS platform simplifies hardware deployment, management, and retrieval with fast, reliable deliveries in 100+ countries. With 50,000 users and 120,000 devices under management, we're solving hybrid work challenges like laptop deliveries, returns and equipment tracking, allowing IT teams to focus less on manual hassles and more on strategic initiatives. Join our team to help shape the future of global collaboration. At Workwize, your work will make a real impact in building smarter, more connected workplaces worldwide. LinkedIn has also recognized Workwize as one of the Top 10 Startups for 2025 in the Netherlands! About the Role At Workwize, we're on the hunt for a CSM Team Lead who can inspire a team, wow clients, and keep an eye on the bottom line - sometimes all before lunch. You'll lead a small, high-performing crew while managing your own client portfolio, making sure both your team and your clients come out on top. Your mornings? Setting priorities, leading stand-ups, and keeping the team laser-focused on what really matters. Your afternoons? Diving into performance metrics, tweaking strategies, and finding ways to make processes smarter, faster, and more impactful. You're a people-person with a head for numbers. You know when to step back and empower your team - and when to roll up your sleeves and tackle escalations head-on. Building relationships comes naturally, whether coaching your team, collaborating across departments, or connecting with clients. You're reflective, always looking for ways to improve performance and set your team up for long-term success. We move fast, think big, and celebrate wins - both for our clients and our teams. If leading a team that's passionate about client success excites you, we'd love to hear from you."
We need to avoid repeating "About the Role" heading inside paragraph; but it's okay to have the phrase as part of text? Might be redundant but it's in original. We'll keep it.

We need to flatten into a single - list? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could be nested lists but likely they want a flat list. However we can keep each bullet as
- . If we want to keep sub-bullets, we could nest
inside - . That's still a list. Probably acceptable.
We'll output each main responsibility as
- with maybe internal
for subpoints. Simpler: just list each bullet as separate - (including sub-bullets as separate
- ). That may lose grouping but still preserves all info. Might be okay.
But better to keep grouping:
- Build and Scale Customer Success in North America
- Take ownership...
...
. That is still a list.
We'll do that.

Pay: we have "Pay range $85,000—$190,000 USD". We'll put in

Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Our Team Becoming part of Workwize means making an impact..." That's after Workwize Offers. That's substantive? It's more fluff but still about team. Could be included maybe under About the Role? But we already have a lot. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include that paragraph as well. Where to put? Could be part of About the Role or maybe a separate section like "About the Team". But we only allowed certain headings. Could add under About the Role as additional prose.
Thus after the role description paragraph, we can add the team paragraph.
Let's capture: "Our Team Becoming part of Workwize means making an impact. We make sure that we will contribute to the change in the way of working. For us it is also important that we make an impact on our employees, that they feel challenged and ease. We consist of a rapid growing and ambitious team with all different backgrounds. Entrepreneurs, Operational specialists, Developers, Sales gurus you can find them all at Workwize and are always on the look-out for the next original ideas to reach more consumers and create the best value for our customers. We are looking forward to meeting you and discover if there is a match with the Workwize team!"
