Senior Marketing Director of Digital Strategy
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: About the role (first paragraph). Responsibilities (multiple bullet points). Qualifications (minimum requirements, preferred). Also maybe Skills? Not explicitly separate but could be part of qualifications. Benefits: there is a paragraph about benefits referencing a URL but not specific benefits listed. The instruction: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It mentions "wide range of world-class benefits" but not specifics. Likely we should not create Benefits section because no specific benefits listed. Pay: there is a paragraph about compensation decisions and wage range but no actual numbers. It says "The wage range listed for this role takes into account..." but no actual range given. So we should not create Pay section. Schedule: mentions travel 20%, not remote/hybrid, location. That could be considered schedule? It's about work arrangement. Might be considered Schedule? The instruction: include Schedule only if posting actually states them. It does state travel requirement and location, not remote/hybrid. Could be considered schedule details. But "Schedule" heading usually for work hours, shift, etc. Might be okay to include as a short paragraph under maybe "About the role" or separate? Safer to not create Schedule section unless explicit schedule like "full-time", "Monday-Friday". Not present. So we will not include Schedule.
Thus sections: About the role (maybe we can call it About the role). Responsibilities. Qualifications (maybe split into Minimum Requirements and Preferred Qualifications). Could also have Skills but not needed.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO paragraphs, the "Qualified applicants with arrest or conviction records..." etc. Also the "About Us" section maybe considered boilerplate? It's descriptive of company but maybe considered substantive? It's about Sherwin-Williams purpose. Might be considered boilerplate but it's about company mission. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "About Us" is not explicitly listed as boilerplate but could be considered generic. However it's substantive about company purpose. Might keep? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The "About Us" paragraph is substantive about company purpose. I'd keep it maybe under a section "About the company"? But we only have headings list; we could include it under About the role? Might be better to include a short paragraph about company under About the role? But the instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. So we could have an "About the role" section that includes the initial description of role and maybe also company purpose? The initial description already includes reporting to VP etc. The "About Us" is separate. Could we create a section "About Sherwin-Williams"? Not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are those listed; we should stick to them. So we might incorporate the company purpose into About the role? Might be okay but risk missing detail. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop it. If we cannot create a heading for it, we could embed it as a paragraph within About the role or maybe within Responsibilities? Better to add a paragraph after the role description but still within About the role section? The heading "About the role" could encompass both role and company context. That seems acceptable.
Thus we will produce:
About the role
Reporting to the VP of Digital Customer Experience for the Performance Coatings Group (PCG), the Senior Director of Digital Marketing Strategy will lead the transformation of PCG’s digital and marketing capabilities across our industrial divisions. This role combines strategic leadership in digital customer experience, eCommerce, marketing technology, and Web CMS with operational oversight of shared services, and digital platform governance. The Senior Director will be highly influential driving measurable outcomes with internal and external customer satisfaction, new whitespace opportunities, and digital engagement by aligning cross-functional teams across Marketing, IT, Operations, Sales and Finance. This digital leader will bring an AI-first mindset, helping the digital marketing organization responsibly identify, prioritize, and scale AI-enabled ways of working that improve customer experience, marketing effectiveness, team productivity, and business impact. Additional Details: This position will require at least 20% travel. This role is not remote/hybrid. This role will report Sherwin-Williams Cleveland Global Headquarters located at 1 Sherwin Way, Cleveland, OH 44115Successful candidate will be required to sign a Protective Non-Solicitation Agreement where permitted by law. Job duties include contact with other employees and access confidential and proprietary information and/or other items of value, and such access may be supervised or unsupervised. The Company therefore has determined that a review of criminal history is necessary to protect the business and its operations and reputation and is necessary to protect the safety of the Company’s staff, employees, and business relationships.
But we need to remove boilerplate like "Successful candidate will be required to sign a Protective Non-Solicitation Agreement..." maybe that's not boilerplate? It's about legal requirement. Might be considered legal boilerplate. The instruction says remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. That includes protective non-solicitation agreement? Possibly considered legal. Might be safer to remove that sentence. Also the sentence about criminal history review maybe legal. Remove those.
Thus we keep only substantive role description and additional details: travel 20%, not remote/hybrid, location.
Now Responsibilities: we need to extract bullet points. The responsibilities section includes multiple paragraphs each starting with bold headings? Actually the text includes headings like "Digital Strategy & Customer Experience", "Leadership & Operational Planning", "Websites", "Digital Tools & Innovation", "Ecommerce & Digital Self Service Tools", "Building Talent And Digital Skillsets Across The Organization". Under each there are sentences. We need to turn each duty into list items. Could group under each heading? But we just need a list of duties/requirements/benefits. We can create a with - for each duty sentence. Preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to list each duty as separate
- . Might be many. We'll extract each sentence that describes a duty.
Let's parse responsibilities section:
"Digital Strategy & Customer Experience Lead the definition, prioritization and governance of a multi-year digital roadmap tied to business goals, customer experience and global scalability.
