We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for each section that has content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must include only sections with real content. Must use
for each section that has content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must include only sections with real content. Must use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. There's no pay, schedule, benefits mentioned. So we should not include those sections.
We need sections: About the role? The posting has "Job Summary". Could map to "About the role" maybe. The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings when appropriate. The posting includes "Job Summary" which could be "About the role". Then "Key Responsibilities" -> "Responsibilities". Then "Required Qualifications" -> "Qualifications". Then "Preferred Experience" maybe could be "Skills"? Or "Preferred Experience" could be under "Qualifications" or "Skills". The instruction says use those headings as examples; we can also use other headings if needed? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It seems we should stick to those headings where applicable. Could also include "Key Competencies" maybe as "Skills". "Key Deliverables" maybe as "Responsibilities"? But better to create a section for "Key Deliverables" maybe as "Responsibilities"? However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine some.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all content: Job Summary, Key Responsibilities (with bullet points), Required Qualifications (list), Preferred Experience (list), Key Competencies (list), Key Deliverables (list). Also maybe "Location United States", "Experience 10+ Years", "Employment Type Full-Time". Those could be folded into a short
under About the role or maybe a metadata paragraph.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we won't have a heading for Principal Strategist – Digital Strategy.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's structure:
About the role

Then Responsibilities: we have several bullet groups: Digital Strategy & Transformation, Client & Executive Advisory, Customer Experience Strategy, Data, AI & Emerging Technology Strategy, Cross-Functional Leadership, Business Development & Thought Leadership. Each has multiple bullet points. We'll create - for each bullet point. Could group under subheadings? Not required but could keep as plain list. However to preserve structure maybe we can keep subheadings as inside
- ? But instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. It doesn't forbid other tags inside
- . So we can include for subheading inside
- . That preserves detail.
Thus:

... etc.
But each bullet may be long; we could split each sentence into separate - for readability but still preserve info. The instruction: use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't say we must keep original grouping. Could break into multiple
