We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. - About the role: could include description of position, location, supervision, general purpose. So we can put location and general description. - Responsibilities: list of duties (the long paragraph of duties).

Benefits: defined pension plan, generous leave and holiday time, eligibility for health insurance coverage, total compensation calculator. So we have benefits. Pay: mention of higher rate based on pay differential (shift, time-of-service pay). No specific salary range. So we have some pay info: "Individual(s) selected for this position may receive a higher rate based on a pay differential (e.g. shift, or time-of-service pay)." That's pay info.
