It says "Learn more about our full benefits package - https://...". Could be considered a call to action; maybe remove as it's like application instruction? Not exactly. Safer to remove? The instruction says remove application instructions. This is not application instruction but a link to learn more. Might be okay to keep? I'd lean to keep as part of benefits description? However it's a URL; might be considered navigation. I'd remove to be safe.
Also remove "Click here to watch a video about Merakey." as navigation.

About the role
We are seeking a Program Lead in Greensburg, PA to join our team! Earn $21/hour with the selection of Enhanced Pay Option. The Program Lead plays a critical role in the day-to-day management and oversight of specific programs or services within their identified Division. Reporting to the Program Manager, this position is responsible for coordinating program activities and ensuring the delivery of high-quality services to program participants. This role may manage a caseload of their own.
But we also have Pay section separate. Could embed pay in About the role or separate Pay section. The rule: Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine About the role and Pay? But Pay is separate heading. However we could include pay in About the role paragraph; then we wouldn't need a Pay section. But the instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. It doesn't forbid having Pay info inside another section. So we could omit Pay section and include pay in About the role. That reduces sections.
Similarly, Schedule not present, so omit.
We need Requirements section: list of qualifications.
We need Responsibilities section: could combine Staff Management, Client Care and Safety, Specific Job Functions under Responsibilities.
We need Skills section: list of interpersonal etc.
We need Benefits section: list.
We need About Merakey section? Could be "About the organization" but not required headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. About Merakey is not in list; but we could treat as "About the organization" but not in allowed headings. The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exclusive. But we should prefer those headings. Could we include About Merakey under "About the role"? Might be redundant. Better to include a section "About Merakey" but it's not in the list; but maybe allowed as e.g. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies those are examples; we can use other headings if needed. However they say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could include About Merakey as a section.
But we also have "About Merakey" paragraph describing organization. Could be included under "About the role"? Might be okay to put under "About the role" as description of organization. However the role description already includes some about Merakey. The paragraph "At Merakey, we put heart and soul into everything we do." is more about the organization. Could be part of About the role.
Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits.
We need to ensure we include all substantive info: location Greensburg, PA, pay $21/hour with Enhanced Pay Option, requirements, responsibilities (staff management, client care, specific job functions), skills, benefits.
Let's draft.
