We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content. We have "Who We Are" description: that's about company, not necessarily "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. But we have "Job Summary". Could treat as About the role. Also "We are proud to offer a competitive benefits package..." is Benefits. We have Duties/Responsibilities list. We have Required Skills/Abilities list. We have Education and Experience: maybe Qualifications. We have Physical Requirements maybe part of Requirements? Could be separate but we only have headings list; we can put under Requirements or Qualifications. Probably Requirements includes physical requirements. We have no explicit Pay or Schedule info. So we should NOT include those sections. We need to include Benefits section with list. We need to include About the role: maybe combine "Who We Are" and "Job Summary". But "Who We Are" is company overview, not role. However we can still put under About the role? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should include About the role with a summary of the role (Job Summary). The "Who We Are" could be considered company overview but not required; we could include it under About the role as introductory paragraph? Might be okay but it's not about the role. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot omit "Who We Are". So we need to include it somewhere. Could put under About the role as a preamble? Or maybe create a separate section? Not allowed headings beyond those. Could we put it under About the role as a paragraph before job summary? That would mix company info with role summary but still preserve. Probably acceptable. Alternatively we could treat "Who We Are" as part of About the role (company description). We'll do that. Thus sections:

About the role

Who We Are GDM Seeds ... (the paragraph). Then Job Summary paragraph.

Then Responsibilities: list of duties. Then Requirements: maybe include Physical Requirements and maybe driver's license etc. Then Qualifications: Education and Experience. Then Skills: Required Skills/Abilities. Then Benefits: list. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract text. Who We Are paragraph: "GDM Seeds is a global leader in plant genetics, dedicated to transforming agriculture through technological innovation. With a continuous focus on research and development, we bring the most advanced and high‑performing seed varieties to the market, creating new growth opportunities for our partners and for the future of agribusiness. Our North America portfolio includes leading brands like AgriGold®, DONMARIO®, Mustang™, PRIDE® Seeds, Revere®, and Virtue, supported by a network of research superstations, one of the largest corn genetic pools and the fourth-largest corn research program. Through our combined expertise, we continue to push the boundaries of innovation, delivering top-tier seed solutions to help farmers grow and succeed. GDM’s region-first brand model reinforces the company’s long-standing promise to deliver top-performing genetics and robust agronomic support - ensuring farmers have the right genetics, in the right place, at the right time. OUR DNA We are passionate about what we do and driven by curiosity. We believe that learning and innovation are the foundation for transforming the future of agriculture. Our focus is on cutting‑edge genetic development, creating solutions that make a difference in the field and in the global market. Our DNA not only guides us but also connects us: we work with empathy, transparency, and respect, ensuring agile and flexible operations. Here, you are the protagonist of your career, because we believe every individual plays an essential role in building something greater. If you are passionate about learning and want to be part of evolving agriculture, GDM is the right place for you! We are proud to offer a competitive benefits package, which includes: Medical, dental, and vision coverage401(k) with company match (eligible 1st of the month following date of hire)Generous vacation time & paid holidaysVolunteer Time OffPaid parental leaveTuition and Health Club reimbursementOther benefits: Company paid Long-term and short-term disability insurance, company paid life insurance and optional supplemental life insurance, health savings account (HSA) with a company contribution and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) GDM is an equal opportunity employer. We are proud to welcome candidates from all backgrounds and encourage you to apply. Learn more about us at gdmseeds.com or follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter @GDMSeeds." But note that the benefits list is inside that paragraph; we should separate Benefits section later and not duplicate. So we need to extract benefits list from that paragraph and put under Benefits heading. Also we need to remove the equal opportunity employer line etc (boilerplate). Also remove "Learn more about us at gdmseeds.com..." etc. Thus for About the role we keep the company description up to before benefits list? The benefits list is part of that paragraph; we will move it to Benefits section. So About the role will contain the company description up to "If you are passionate about learning and want to be part of evolving agriculture, GDM is the right place for you!" maybe also include the DNA part. We'll keep that. Now Job Summary paragraph: "Job Summary: The Sales Operations Specialist plays a critical role in enabling sales growth and operational efficiency by serving as the primary liaison between Sales, Product Management, Supply Chain, and Finance. This position is responsible for managing customer accounts, coordinating product requests and shipments, ensuring accurate account balances and settlements, and supporting sales execution through disciplined process alignment.

The successful candidate will be based at one of our primary locations: Westfield, IN; Battle Creek, NE; or St. Francisville, IL.

Could be separate but we only have About the role heading. We'll combine. Now Responsibilities: list from "Duties/Responsibilities:" bullet points. Let's extract each duty: - Deliver high quality, responsive customer service experience to internal sales teams and external customers. - Manage assigned customer accounts, including product requests, order coordination, shipment execution, and account settlement within a designated geography. - Serve as the primary Sales Support expert for the assigned region, providing guidance on processes, systems and account activity. - Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Supply Chain, Finance, Accounting, and other stakeholders to ensure timely execution of key business deliverables (e.g., month-end close, year-end activities, shipping deadlines, account receivable). - Maintain and safeguard data integrity for assigned accounts, ensuring accuracy in systems, reporting, and financial outcomes. - Provide system and transaction processing support to ensure sales activities comply with established operational and financial controls. - Influence account behavior to align with sales and operational plans, including guiding customers and sales teams through non-optimal scenarios, new processes, tools and system implementations. - Support continuous improvement initiatives, including developing subject matter expertise in systems, processes, or functional areas. - Ensure compliance with corporate timelines and deadlines for all assigned accounts and responsibilities. - Communicate and implement brand directives consistently across customer interactions and account activities. - Uphold a high standard of professionalism and customer service while projecting a positive image of GDM Genetics, AgirGold Hybrids, and Mustang Seeds. - Performs other duties as assigned.

  • items. Now we must not include Pay or Schedule sections. Now produce HTML. We'll wrap sections in appropriate tags. We'll output:

    About the role

    ...company description...

    Job Summary: ...

    Then

    Responsibilities

      ...
    Then

    Requirements

      ... physical requirements + driver's license? maybe include driver's license under Requirements. Then

      Qualifications

        ... education/experience
      Then

      Skills

        ... skills list
      Then

      Benefits

        ... benefits list
      Make sure no extra whitespace? It's fine. Now craft the About the role paragraph: combine company description up to before benefits. Let's extract company description text before benefits: Starting from "GDM Seeds is a global leader..." up to "If you are passionate about learning and want to be part of evolving agriculture, GDM is the right place for you!" Also includes OUR DNA etc. Let's copy: "GDM Seeds is a global leader in plant genetics, dedicated to transforming agriculture through technological innovation.
