Regional Sales Manager
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content: description of role (Why Consider This Job Opportunity) could be "About the role". Then responsibilities (What To Expect (Essential Job Responsibilities)). Then qualifications (What Is Required (Qualifications)). Then preferred qualifications (How To Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)). Then benefits (Perks). Then Pay (Minimum Salary: ... Maximum Salary: ...). No schedule specifics besides "Hybrid working schedule for eligible positions." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that line. Also maybe "Workplace PolicyHybrid from Irvine, CA" could be schedule/location. We'll include Schedule with hybrid info.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove "Imagine the possibilities..." maybe considered boilerplate? It's promotional but not boilerplate; but it's not a specific section; we could include in About the role paragraph.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details: Murata intro paragraph? That's company description; could be part of About the role? Probably we can include as part of About the role paragraph.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all specifics: responsibilities list, qualifications list, preferred qualifications list, perks list, salary range, hybrid schedule.
We must use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list: bullet points. Qualifications list: bullet points. Preferred qualifications: bullet points. Benefits: bullet points.
We need to use
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.

But we separated schedule later; maybe we keep Workplace Policy in About the role paragraph? Could also move to Schedule section. Better to keep schedule separate.
Thus About the role paragraph includes company intro and role description but not schedule.
Let's extract role description: "Why Consider This Job OpportunityThe Sales Manager is responsible for supporting and executing the leadership as well as the strategic direction provided by the sales leadership team for the assigned territory.

However we could keep schedule section with location and note hybrid working schedule; benefits could omit hybrid schedule to avoid duplication but then we lose that benefit info. Better to keep both; it's fine.
