We need to output 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: - Title: Senior Manager, Corporate Affairs (Central Region) (not repeated) - Location: Austin or Dallas, Texas (metadata) - Your Role: description paragraph. - What You'll Do: list of duties. - What You'll Need: list of requirements (education, experience, preferences). - A Bit About Us: description of company. - A Bit About Our Team Marketing: description of team. - What We Can Offer You: description of culture, development opportunities. - Health and Safety: description. - Our Compensation Philosophy: description of compensation and benefits. We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe "Your Role" paragraph). Responsibilities (What You'll Do). Requirements (maybe "What You'll Need" includes education and experience). Qualifications (maybe overlapping with Requirements? Could separate but we should avoid thin sections). Skills (maybe list of skills from requirements). Benefits (What We Can Offer You includes development opportunities, supportive environment, etc). Pay (Compensation Philosophy mentions competitive compensation package, excellent benefits). Schedule (maybe not present). Health and Safety maybe could be part of Benefits? But we only have allowed headings list; we cannot add custom headings. We must only use those headings. If content doesn't fit, we could incorporate into existing sections or drop if not fitting. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop info. So we need to map all info into allowed sections. We can have multiple sections; we can include Benefits, Pay, etc. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have content for: - About the role: "Your Role" paragraph. - Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. - Requirements: education and experience (Bachelor's degree, 8-10 years). - Qualifications: maybe preferences (technology/infrastructure/real estate/data center background, government affairs experience). Could be separate but could also be part of Requirements. But we need to avoid thin sections; we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But headings are separate; we could include both if they have substantive content. Qualifications could contain the preferred background and skills. - Skills: could list writing, storytelling, relationship building, multitasking, judgment, organization, problem-solving, occasional travel. - Benefits: "What We Can Offer You" includes supportive inclusive environment, development opportunities, work with different business areas, challenge, ideas into action, development opportunities. Also Health and Safety section could be part of Benefits? But we have separate Health and Safety description; maybe we can include under Benefits as well, but we need to preserve that info. Could create a Benefits section that includes both What We Can Offer You and Health and Safety. - Pay: "Our Compensation Philosophy" includes competitive compensation package, excellent benefits, rewarding employees for achieving values/objectives. That's Pay and Benefits overlap. We could put Pay section with compensation philosophy, and Benefits section with other offerings. - Schedule: not mentioned; we should not create Schedule section if no specific content. So omit. Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for each section heading. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

    . We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting didn't have those except maybe "Apply today..." which is application instruction; we must remove application instructions. So we should drop "Apply today, take charge of your career and grow your talents with us." Also maybe "To learn more about Digital Realty, please visit digitalrealty.com or follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter." That's not boilerplate but maybe considered external link; but it's substantive? It's about learning more; could be considered info but not essential; but we can keep? The instruction: remove application instructions. That line is not an application instruction but a link to learn more; could keep. However it's not a list; it's prose. We also need to drop duplicated lines. Let's extract content precisely.

    But note that some of these items overlap with Skills. The instruction: Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we have Skills separate. We could move skill-like items to Skills section. Let's decide: Requirements: education and years experience. Qualifications: preferred industry background, experience supporting government affairs. Skills: writing, storytelling, relationship building, multitasking, judgment, organization, problem-solving, occasional travel. We need to avoid duplication; but we can split. Thus: Requirements: education + experience.

Skills: strong writing, storytelling, content creation; experience building relationships with media, government affairs teams, senior stakeholders; ability to manage multiple priorities in fast-paced environment; strong judgment, organization, problem-solving skills; occasional travel.
