Materials Planner

We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. The posting includes: Job Description (overview), Responsibilities (list), Essential Skills, Additional Skills & Qualifications, Work Environment, Job Type & Location, Pay And Benefits, Workplace Type, Application Deadline, About Aston Carter (boilerplate). We need to remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove application instructions (deadline maybe considered application instruction? It says "Application Deadline This position is anticipated to close on Oct 1, 2026." That's application instruction? Probably we should remove it as it's application instruction. Also remove "About Aston Carter" etc. Also remove "Job Type & Location" maybe we can include location as part of a short paragraph? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Job Type & Location is metadata; we could include location in a paragraph under maybe "About the role"? But we have no "About the role" heading unless we create one. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule, etc. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role: The job description paragraph at start: "The Materials Planner oversees purchasing, supplier follow-up, inventory planning, and replenishment activities using Oracle ERP to ensure product availability across warehouses, 3PL partners, and Amazon fulfillment channels. This role focuses on maintaining accurate planning data, preventing stock-outs, managing high-volume SKUs, and supporting a seamless supply chain that meets customer demand and revenue goals." That's suitable for About the role. Responsibilities: we have a long list; we can put as

• . Skills: we have Essential Skills and Additional Skills & Qualifications. Could combine into Skills section? The instruction says we can have Skills heading. We'll put essential skills as list, maybe also additional skills as part of same list or separate? Probably combine into one Skills section with bullet points. Benefits: we have Pay And Benefits section with pay range and benefits list. So we need Pay and Benefits sections separate? The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we need Pay section with pay range, Benefits section with benefits list. Also Schedule: we have Work Environment describing flexible daytime hours, typical schedules. That's schedule info. So we can have Schedule section. We also have Work Environment description; could be part of About the role? But we have Schedule separate. We need to avoid boilerplate: remove EEO, legal, etc. Also remove "Application Deadline". Remove "About Aston Carter". Remove "Workplace Type" maybe redundant with Schedule? We'll incorporate location maybe in About the role? Could add location as a short paragraph after About the role? But location is minor metadata; we could fold into a short

  after About the role. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we could include a short p after About the role: "

  Location: Carlstadt, NJ (fully onsite).

  " That seems okay. Similarly, Job Type (Contract to Hire) maybe also minor metadata; we could include in same p. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the pay range exactly: "$30.00 - $40.00/hr".

The role involves regular collaboration with cross-functional teams, close coordination with warehouses and 3PL partners, and daily use of Oracle ERP and Excel to manage inventory, purchasing, and fulfillment activities." We can extract schedule info: flexible daytime hours, typical schedules: 9-5, 8-4, 7-3. Also mention fully onsite. We'll put schedule section with that info. Pay: "$30.00 - $40.00/hr". Also note that individual compensation depends on factors. We should keep that detail? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the sentence about compensation depending on many factors. That's substantive. So Pay section should include that sentence. Benefits: list as above. We also need to include About the role section with the overview paragraph. We also need to include location/minor metadata maybe as a short p after About the role? But we already have location in schedule? Could incorporate location in About the role paragraph? The overview didn't mention location. We could add a short p after About the role: "

  Location: Carlstadt, NJ (fully onsite, Contract to Hire).

  " That preserves location and job type. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. Already not. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. We removed those. We must not include application instructions (deadline). We removed. We must not include "About Aston Carter". Removed. We must not include "Workplace Type" as heading; we incorporated location/job type in a p. Now produce HTML fragment: start with

  Make sure to not add extra sections like Requirements, Qualifications if not present. We have Skills covering both essential and additional; we could also have Requirements and Qualifications but we don't have separate headings for those; we can omit. Now craft HTML. Be careful to escape any special characters like &, <, >. In the text we have "&" in "Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital". That's fine as is in HTML; but to
