Plant Maintenance Supervisor - 2nd Shift (Relocation)
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
Thus we need to parse the posting and decide which sections to include.
The posting includes:
- Intro: "If you are currently employed at Smithfield, please log into Workday and submit your application through the Jobs Hub. Have a seat at our table. When you join Smithfield, you become part of something special – a company that's sustainably feeding people around the world, producing good food the right way with respect for our people, animals, communities and planet. With opportunities across locations and functions, a culture grounded in our Core Four values - gratitude, communication, respect and accountability - and a strong commitment to learning, collaboration, and innovation, Smithfield offers challenging and rewarding careers where you can grow, contribute and make a real impact. Apply Now!"
That's generic marketing, maybe we can treat as "About the role" or "About the company". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can map content accordingly.
We have sections:
- "The Value You’ll Bring" then "The position summary states the general nature and purpose of the job. Overall accountabilities are defined in this section. As the Maintenance Supervisor, you'll lead dynamic maintenance teams..." This is about role/responsibilities. Could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The "What You’ll Do" section lists duties.
- "What We’re Seeking" includes requirements: Bachelor's degree, experience, etc. Also "Other Skills That Make You Stand Out" includes preferred skills.
- "Physical Demands & Work Environment" includes description.
- Pay: "The expected pay range for this position is $70,000 - $97,500 annually." So we have Pay section.
- Benefits: mention "Learn more about our benefits package here." No specifics given. So we should NOT create Benefits section because no specific content.
- Schedule: not mentioned.
- Relocation Package Available Yes: could be part of Benefits? But it's a specific detail. Could be included under Benefits? But we shouldn't create Benefits unless posting actually states them. It does state relocation package available yes. That's a benefit. However the instruction says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state relocation package available yes, which is a benefit. So we could include a Benefits section with that detail. But also they mention "Learn more about our benefits package here." but no specifics. However we have a specific: Relocation Package Available Yes. So we can include that.
- EEO etc: remove.
- Application instructions: remove.
Thus we need to produce HTML with sections: maybe About the role (intro + value you'll bring?), Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (What We're Seeking - required), Skills (Other Skills That Make You Stand Out), Physical Demands & Work Environment (maybe as its own section? Not in list but we could treat as "Working Conditions" but not in allowed headings. The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No explicit "Physical Demands". Could we incorporate into Responsibilities or Requirements? Probably better to include as a separate section but not in allowed list? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exclusive? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect us to use those headings where appropriate. If we have content that doesn't fit those, maybe we still use a heading but not from list? Safer to stick to those headings. We could map Physical Demands & Work Environment under "Responsibilities" or "Requirements"? Not ideal. Could create a section "Working Conditions" but not in list; risk.
Maybe we can treat Physical Demands & Work Environment as part of "Requirements" (since it's about ability to perform). Or we could omit it? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it somewhere.
We could create a section with heading "Physical Demands & Work Environment" using . 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, just gives examples. So we can use that heading.
Thus we will produce sections:
- About the role (intro + value you'll bring)
- Responsibilities (What You'll Do)
- Requirements (What We're Seeking - required)
- Skills (Other Skills That Make You Stand Out)
- Physical Demands & Work Environment
- Pay
- Benefits (Relocation Package Available Yes)
We should not include Schedule.
Now we need to format content: Use
for prose,
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
We need to extract lists.
From "What You’ll Do": bullet points:
- Team Leadership & Supervision: You'll lead teams of Maintenance Mechanics and Electricians in predictive and preventative maintenance, as well as machine repairs. You'll also train employees on proper work methods and safety procedures. Supervise and support maintenance systems, processes, and documentation to ensure high performance.

Develop and implement effective maintenance systems (Prevention and Predictive Maintenance, TPM, SOPs, Safety, etc.). Provide long-term solutions and day-to-day support for troubleshooting, problem analysis, and equipment failures.
- Performance Monitoring & Reporting: Develop and maintain Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for tracking maintenance performance (e.g., supplier performance, contractor performance, equipment reliability, overall equipment effectiveness). Provide regular status reports to the maintenance management team.

- Crisis Management & Continuity: In the absence of key personnel, assume responsibility for completing or delegating the completion of required tasks and responsibilities.

We can turn each bullet into
- .
From "What We’re Seeking": required:
- Bachelor’s degree from an accredited four-year college or university in Engineering or a related field and 2+ years of relevant experience, or equivalent combination of education and experience, required.

- Thorough knowledge of maintenance systems, work order processes, preventive/predictive maintenance, TPM, inventory and scheduling software, preferred.
- Strong leadership skills (conflict resolution, facilitation, change management skills, decision making, empowerment and delegation), preferred.
- Good planning and priority setting skills.
- Ability to work well with others in fast paced, dynamic environment.
- Ability to be respectful, approachable and team oriented while building strong working relationships and a positive work environment.
- Bilingual, preferred.
From Physical Demands & Work Environment: It's a paragraph describing physical demands and work environment. We'll keep as
.
Pay: we have sentence about pay range.
Benefits: Relocation Package Available Yes.
Now we need to remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc.
Also remove duplicated lines: The intro includes "Apply Now!" which is application instruction; we should remove that. Also "If you are currently employed at Smithfield, please log into Workday and submit your application through the Jobs Hub." remove.
Also "Have a seat at our table." maybe keep as part of intro? It's marketing but not boilerplate; we can keep.
Now produce HTML.
