We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- About The Company: but we likely don't need a section for company? The instruction says use headings for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should only include those headings if content exists. "About The Company" is not one of those headings, so we should not output it. Probably we can ignore company description or maybe incorporate into About the role? But we must preserve all substantive information. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It says use those headings for section headings. It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. So we should map content to those.
We have:
About The Role: description: "In our continued mission to create shopping destinations that entertain, inspire, and bring communities together, Tanger is seeking a Senior Counsel - Legal Leasing This role offers the opportunity to work both independently and collaboratively, supported by a flexible, Teams-driven workplace designed to empower connection, innovation, and impact across geographies."
That's the About the role content.
Then "How can you contribute to what we do?" then description of duties. That's responsibilities.
Then "Essential Job Duties And Responsibilities" with bullet-like paragraphs. We need to convert to
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. So we should map content to those.
We have:

That's the About the role content.
Then "How can you contribute to what we do?" then description of duties. That's responsibilities.
Then "Essential Job Duties And Responsibilities" with bullet-like paragraphs. We need to convert to - list.
Then "Competencies" list: Relationship Building, Problem Solving & Decision Making, Project Management, Team and Collaboration, Confidentiality & Ethics, Substantive Knowledge, Adhere to Tanger’s Values: Integrity, Inclusion and Innovation. Those could be Skills or Qualifications? Probably Skills.
Then "Equipment/Programs Used": Ability to demonstrate sufficient computer skills... list of software. That could be Skills as well.
Then "Work Environment": Majority of work occurs in an office or home environment TRAVEL: This position requires up to 5% travel. Must be able to travel via commercial airlines. Must maintain a valid driver’s license and can operate own vehicle or rental car in a safe manner. That could be Schedule? Not exactly schedule but maybe we can put under Schedule? The instruction says include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. Travel is not schedule but maybe we could treat as Schedule? Better to not create Schedule if not explicit schedule like hours. There's no explicit schedule (e.g., full-time, part-time). So we omit Schedule.
Then "Required Education And Experience": J.D. from accredited law school, Licensed to practice law in one state, 9+ years of drafting and negotiating retail space leases, Experience drafting and negotiating retail leases in-house with landlord or tenant preferred. That's Requirements/Qualifications.
Then "Hiring Range Disclaimer": base salary range $139,500 - $214,500 per year. That's Pay.
Then "About The Tanger Perks": list of benefits: Competitive salary, Generous Suite of Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits, 401(k) match, Paid PTO and Holidays, Paid Volunteer Hours, Team Member Paid Leave Programs, Tuition Reimbursement, Wellness Incentives, Group Life and Disability Insurance, Voluntary Benefits, Team Member Discounts, And more… That's Benefits.
We also have "Competitive salary" listed also in Pay? Already covered.
We need to avoid duplication.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, E-verify, accessibility note, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information: So we need to include the company mission? Possibly not required as not under headings. But we could incorporate into About the role? The About the role already includes mission sentence. The company description may be considered substantive but not under allowed headings. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It didn't forbid other headings, but said use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings for sections. It didn't say we cannot have other headings, but to follow the pattern. Safer to stick to those headings only.
Thus we will output:

We should not include Schedule section because no explicit schedule.
Check for any leftover substantive info not covered: Work Environment and Travel. That's not covered. Should we include it under maybe a separate section? Not in allowed headings. Could we incorporate into Responsibilities? Not appropriate. Could we create a "Work environment" heading? Not allowed per instruction. But we could maybe include under "About the role"? Not really. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." It didn't forbid other headings, but gave examples. It might be okay to add a "Work environment" section if we think it's substantive. However the instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." This suggests those are the expected headings. It didn't say "only these", but the examples imply those are the typical sections. To be safe, we could include a "Work environment" section as an but it's not in the list. Might be considered deviating. Better to omit? But we would lose substantive info about travel requirement and work environment. The instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information". So we need to include that info somewhere. We could incorporate it into Responsibilities or About the role? Not ideal but we could add a sentence in About the role: "The role is primarily office or home-based with up to 5% travel, requiring a valid driver’s license and ability to operate a vehicle." That would preserve the info. Similarly we could add a sentence about travel under About the role.
Thus we can add that info to About the role paragraph.
Let's update About the role paragraph: "In our continued mission to create shopping destinations that entertain, inspire, and bring communities together, Tanger is seeking a Senior Counsel - Legal Leasing. This role offers the opportunity to work both independently and collaboratively, supported by a flexible, Teams-driven workplace designed to empower connection, innovation, and impact across geographies. The position is primarily office or home‑based with up to 5% travel, requiring a valid driver’s license and the ability to operate a vehicle."
Now we have preserved travel info.
Now check if any other substantive info: "Equipment/Programs Used" we included under Skills as computer skills. Good.
Now ensure no boilerplate: we removed EEO, E-verify, accessibility note, drug free workplace, background check, etc.
Check for duplicate lines: we have "Competitive salary" both in Benefits and Pay. Benefits list includes Competitive salary; Pay includes hiring range. That's okay; not duplicate exactly but similar. Could we remove Competitive salary from Benefits to avoid duplication? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; Competitive salary is a benefit mention; but we also have Pay section with range. It's not duplicate exactly; it's a mention of competitive salary as a benefit. Could keep both.
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings for sections. It didn't say we cannot have other headings, but to follow the pattern. Safer to stick to those headings only.
Thus we will output:
