Sr. Manager, Benefits

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes intro about company, then role description. We need headings:

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro: "Ready for more than just a job? Build a career with purpose..." This is about company and role. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role. - Responsibilities: there is a "Key Responsibilities For This Position Include" list. Also "SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES". So we can combine under Responsibilities. - Requirements: includes Education, Experience, Certifications and specific knowledge. - Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? The instruction says we can have Qualifications separate if content. But we have Requirements section already. Could also have Qualifications (maybe same). But we should avoid duplicate thin sections. Probably combine Education, Experience, Certifications under Requirements. - Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; but there is "Knowledge of benefits policies..." etc. Could be under Requirements. - Benefits: The posting mentions "At Lactalis, we offer a comprehensive Total Rewards Program with a variety of affordable benefits and coverage options. We support insurance costs significantly, contribute generously to retirement plans, and offer Paid Time Off from day one. We are committed to your professional growth, providing training and development opportunities, including Education Reimbursement." That's benefits info. So we can include Benefits section. - Pay: Not mentioned. So omit. - Schedule: Not mentioned (though mentions Hybrid Work Policy, physical presence, occasional travel, extended hours). That's more work conditions, not schedule. No explicit schedule like full-time, hours. So omit Schedule. We also have WORK CONDITIONS: Travel may be required occasionally. Extended hours may be necessary depending on the project needs. To fulfill these responsibilities, tools such as a computer, phone or, and / or allowance(s) will be provided. To fulfill these responsibilities, a cell phone is required. Reasonable accommodations may be made... This position requires physical presence in the office, in accordance with the guidelines of the Hybrid Work Policy. We could include a section like "Work Conditions" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings list is examples; we could still add other headings? The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings; but we could also add other headings if needed? It says "use

for section headings (e.g. ...)" meaning those are examples; we likely should stick to those. Work Conditions not in list; maybe we could fold into Responsibilities or About the role. Probably fold into About the role or Responsibilities as a brief note. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is Senior Manager, Benefits. Already appears in text; we should not make a heading for it. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, etc. At end there is EEO statement; we should remove that. Also remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal etc. Not present. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from responsibilities, requirements, benefits, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft sections:

About the role

... intro paragraph about Lactalis, mission, brands, values, and the role overview.

We need to include the description: "Ready for more than just a job? Build a career with purpose.

The Senior Manager, Benefits reports to the Organization and HR VP." We need to keep all that. Might be long but okay. Then Responsibilities: list from "Key Responsibilities For This Position Include" bullet list. Also supervisory responsibilities. We'll create

• for each. Let's extract responsibilities: - Lead the strategy, administration, and continuous improvement of U.S. health, welfare, retirement, and wellbeing programs to deliver competitive, compliant, cost-effective offerings. - Manage and develop a team of three Benefits Specialists through coaching, prioritization, performance management, and accountability for service delivery. - Oversee benefits operations, including eligibility, enrollment, life events, payroll deductions, vendor integrations, COBRA, retirement programs, and annual enrollment. - Manage relationships with benefits vendors, brokers, consultants, carriers, and third-party administrators, including contracts, performance, service standards, and issue resolution. - Partner with Payroll, HRIS, Finance, HR leadership, and external providers to ensure accurate administration, data integrity, compliance, and a positive employee experience. - Establish and maintain operational controls, standard operating procedures, audits, and service standards that support efficient, scalable, and compliant operations. - Lead annual renewals and budget management through plan design evaluation, benchmarking, forecasting, financial analysis, vendor negotiations, and cost-containment strategies. - Analyze utilization, claims, market trends, employee feedback, and vendor performance to identify program enhancements, mitigate risk, and improve operations. - Ensure compliance with applicable federal, state, and local requirements, including ERISA, HIPAA, COBRA, ACA, retirement plan, and leave-related regulations. - Lead benefits projects, system implementations, vendor transitions, and process improvements that strengthen efficiency, compliance, employee experience, and organizational effectiveness. - Develop and oversee employee communications, education, training, presentations, annual enrollment materials, and self-service resources that promote benefits understanding and engagement. - Serve as the senior escalation point and subject matter expert for complex benefits and retirement matters, advising employees, leaders, HR Business Partners, and other stakeholders. Supervisory responsibilities: "The incumbent is responsible for providing leadership and oversight for the organization's benefits function, including the management and development of a team of three Benefits Specialists. Direct benefit program administration, compliance, vendor management, and continuous process improvements to support organizational and employee needs" We could incorporate that as a bullet or separate paragraph. Probably include as a bullet under Responsibilities. Now Requirements: Education: Master's degree is preferred. A major in Human Resources, Management, Finance or other applicable academic background is preferred. Experience: 8+ years of progressive benefits experience focused on managing health, welfare, retirement, leave, and wellbeing programs experience is required. Certifications and specific knowledge: The following certification is preferred for this role: CEBS or similar benefits certification. Knowledge of benefits policies, procedures and practices including IRS, Department of Labor and other employment law implications for benefit programs is required. We could also include "Qualifications" but we can put all under Requirements. Now Benefits: "At Lactalis, we offer a comprehensive Total Rewards Program with a variety of affordable benefits and coverage options. We support insurance costs significantly, contribute generously to retirement plans, and offer Paid Time Off from day one. We are committed to your professional growth, providing training and development opportunities, including Education Reimbursement." We should keep that. Also maybe mention "Hybrid Work Policy" etc. Could be included in About the role or Responsibilities? Might be better to include in About the role as part of work conditions. We need to avoid creating sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML. We must not include any markdown fences. Let's craft:
