Sales Representative - Lexington - KY

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually "Who We Are" is about company; we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content. We have content: Who We Are (company description) maybe "About the role"? Not exactly role but could be "About the role"? Might be better to use "About the role" heading for company overview? The instruction says use those headings as examples; we can use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect those exact headings if content exists. We have content for Responsibilities (What You Will Do). Qualifications (Required Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications). Benefits (What We Offer). Pay (Annual Base Salary Range). Possibly Schedule? Not present. Skills? Could be part of Qualifications. We'll include sections: About the role (maybe from Who We Are). Responsibilities (What You Will Do). Qualifications (Required Minimum Qualifications and Preferred). Benefits (What We Offer). Pay (Annual Base Salary Range). We'll not include Schedule. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. Remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove "Applicant Information" etc. Also remove "This job description is intended to be generic..." etc. Also remove "Everyone Belongs" EEO block. Also remove "If you have a concern..." etc. We need to keep content: Who We Are paragraph(s). What You Will Do (job summary and bullet list). Qualifications (required minimum qualifications: education/experience, knowledge, skilled, ability). Preferred qualifications: education/experience. Work Environment and Physical Demand (maybe part of Qualifications? Could be separate but not in list of headings; we could include under Qualifications as prose). Benefits: Competitive benefits package etc. Pay: Annual Base Salary Range. We need to format as HTML fragment only. Let's extract content. Who We Are: "ITG Brands is the third-largest tobacco company in the USA with offerings of some of the most well-known cigarette, cigar, and e-vapor brands. As a member of the globally recognized Imperial Brands PLC family, we are a forward-thinking partner with operational integrity. ITG Brands is committed to putting consumers at the center of what we do, while creating an innovative workplace where inclusion, creativity, and bold thinking drive progress. This empowers us to bring our true selves to work, to collaborate more effectively through showing our passion and being confident to bring new ideas to the table. We are not afraid to seize opportunities and make things happen – both individually and collaboratively. We strive to exceed expectations by seeing things differently and doing things differently. This truly is a place where we all share a challenger mindset which drives our success." That's prose. What You Will Do: Job Summary paragraph: "Make sales to retailers, primarily in the form of commitments from retailers to increase stock, place orders, stock new product lines, provide and expand shelf space, participate in incentive programs and pre-shipment programs, allow promotional placements, and assign prime placement to products and promotional materials. Identify opportunities to drive volume and market share in your assignment. Optimize coverage to meet and/or exceed objectives by continually challenging the status quo. Establish credibility and increase influence in assignment to support and maximize sales and promote company priorities and goals. Actively seek to gain insights through retail activities that can be communicated and reported to strengthen the team and Company Brands." Then "WHAT YOU WILL DO (This list is not exhaustive and may be supplemented as necessary by the Company)" then subheadings: Sales, Retail Partnership, Retail Coverage, Retail Store Development, Retail Communication & Insights. Each has bullet points. We need to output as

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can treat each bullet as
  • . Could group under headings? But headings are only

    . We could have

    Responsibilities

    then maybe

    Sales

    but not allowed? Only h3 for section headings. Could we still use

    ? 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, but to be safe we can just use

    for each major section and within that use

    • for lists, possibly with for subheadings inside
    • ? But we need to preserve content; we could embed subheadings as plain text inside
    • . That's okay. Thus:

      Responsibilities
