HybridFull-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Role Description (primary client relationship manager etc.) That's about the role. Then responsibilities: list of duties. Then qualifications: list. Skills: maybe separate? The posting includes qualifications and skills intermixed. We need to decide sections: About the role (role description). Responsibilities (list of duties). Qualifications (education/experience). Skills (maybe technical skills). Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned (though travel up to 25% maybe schedule? Not schedule). So we should not create Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections because no specific content. Also we should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". So only include sections with content.
We need to use
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Role Description (primary client relationship manager etc.) That's about the role. Then responsibilities: list of duties. Then qualifications: list. Skills: maybe separate? The posting includes qualifications and skills intermixed. We need to decide sections: About the role (role description). Responsibilities (list of duties). Qualifications (education/experience). Skills (maybe technical skills). Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned (though travel up to 25% maybe schedule? Not schedule). So we should not create Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections because no specific content. Also we should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". So only include sections with content.
We need to use for each section heading. 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 etc. The posting includes "Please Note: This job posting is intended to provide a summary..." that's boilerplate; we should remove that. Also "Job Locations Considered" with locations and travel; that's substantive? It's location and travel info. Should we include that? It's not a standard heading but could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "Location & Travel". But headings limited to given list; we could incorporate location and travel into About the role or Responsibilities? Probably better to include in About the role as prose. The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should use those headings when appropriate. It also says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can create sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills. Possibly also include a section for Location & Travel? Not in list; maybe we can put under About the role.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
Let's extract content:
About the role: "Serve as the primary client relationship manager for a Managed Sensory Partnership account. Build trusted client partnerships and provide strategic recommendations that drive business results. Lead program planning, execution, and continuous improvement to ensure successful outcomes. Manage client embedded Sensory Teams in 2 locations;-- Lead, coach, mentor, and develop team members.-- Foster a collaborative, inclusive, and high-performing team environment.-- Promote open communication, accountability, and alignment with company values and objectives.-- Provide technical guidance-- Ensure quality, efficiency, and adherence to timelines. Design and oversee sensory, consumer, and product research projects from proposal through completion. Translate client objectives into effective research plans using sensory science and consumer research methodologies. Analyze data and deliver actionable insights and recommendations to clients. Coordinate project activities, timelines, quality standards, and cross-functional resources to ensure successful delivery. Support accurate project tracking, reporting, and client billing."
That's a big paragraph; we could split into prose and list? The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should identify list items within responsibilities. The role description includes many duties separated by semicolons and dashes. Could convert to list.
Better: Have About the role as a brief prose summary: "Serve as the primary client relationship manager for a Managed Sensory Partnership account. Build trusted client partnerships and provide strategic recommendations that drive business results." Then Responsibilities as a list of duties.
Let's parse responsibilities:
- Lead program planning, execution, and continuous improvement to ensure successful outcomes.
- Manage client embedded Sensory Teams in 2 locations:
- Lead, coach, mentor, and develop team members.
- Foster a collaborative, inclusive, and high-performing team environment.
- Promote open communication, accountability, and alignment with company values and objectives.
- Provide technical guidance.
- Ensure quality, efficiency, and adherence to timelines.
- Design and oversee sensory, consumer, and product research projects from proposal through completion.

- Analyze data and deliver actionable insights and recommendations to clients.
- Coordinate project activities, timelines, quality standards, and cross-functional resources to ensure successful delivery.
- Support accurate project tracking, reporting, and client billing.
Also mention locations: New Providence, NJ; Kannapolis, NC; Plano, TX; up to 25% travel. Could be in About the role or a separate note.
Qualifications: list:
- Strong expertise in sensory science, including experimental design, test methodology, and application of advanced sensory techniques.
- Experience with consumer research, integrating sensory data with consumer insights to support product development and optimization.
- Proficiency in statistical analysis and data interpretation using tools such as R, SAS, SPSS, or similar software.
- Demonstrated ability to manage projects, including planning, timelines, budgets, and communication with internal and external stakeholders.
- Skilled in technical writing, report development, and delivering clear, compelling presentations to diverse audiences.
- Proven capability in panel leadership, training, and performance monitoring for descriptive and other sensory panels.
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in remote, collaborative teams.
- Master’s or PhD in Sensory Science, Food Science, Psychology, Statistics, or a related field; relevant industry or consulting experience strongly preferred.
- Comfort with remote work tools and digital collaboration platforms; willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings or on-site studies as needed.
- Background in teaching, workshops, or professional training in sensory or consumer science is a plus.
Skills: maybe overlapping with qualifications; but we could separate technical skills: proficiency in statistical analysis tools, technical writing, panel leadership, etc. However to avoid duplication, we could treat Qualifications as education/experience, and Skills as technical/proficiency skills. But the posting lumps them. We could still create a Skills section for items like: proficiency in R, SAS, SPSS; technical writing; panel leadership; interpersonal communication; remote work tools. But we risk duplication. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." If we split, we still preserve all info, just categorize differently. That's acceptable as long as we don't lose info. We'll need to ensure we don't duplicate same bullet in two sections (that would be repeating info). Better to keep Qualifications section covering education/experience, and Skills section covering technical skills and competencies. Let's extract:
Skills (technical/proficiency):

- Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings or on-site studies as needed. (maybe travel is skill but okay)
But we need to avoid duplication: "comfort with remote work tools" appears in both? We'll keep in Skills.
Now Responsibilities list we already have.
About the role: short prose: "Serve as the primary client relationship manager for a Managed Sensory Partnership account. Build trusted client partnerships and provide strategic recommendations that drive business results."
We could also include location/travel in About the role: "Positions considered in New Providence, New Jersey; Kannapolis, North Carolina; Plano, Texas; up to 25% travel."
Let's incorporate that.

Check that we preserved all substantive info: we missed "Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings or on-site studies as needed." That's a qualification/skill. We have travel mentioned in About the role (up to 25% travel) but also the willingness to travel occasionally. Could add to Skills or Qualifications. Let's add to Skills: "Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings or on-site studies as needed." Also we have "Comfort with remote work tools and digital collaboration platforms;" we have that.
Also we missed "Manage client embedded Sensory Teams in 2 locations;" we captured that as a responsibility with sublist.
We missed "Provide technical guidance-- Ensure quality, efficiency, and adherence to timelines." Already included.
