We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. We need to preserve substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "At Suntory Global Spirits, we craft spirits..." This is about the company. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes description of role? The posting includes "What makes this a great opportunity?" then details about company. Could treat as "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 (maybe includes company overview and why it's great). Then Responsibilities (list of duties). Then Qualifications (education, experience). Then Skills maybe separate? The posting includes qualifications list: Bachelor's Degree, planning skills, knowledge, sales experience, MS Office, experience with account buyers, spirits industry experience, licensed driver, ability for intermittent travel. Those could be Qualifications. Skills maybe overlapped; but we can put Skills separate if there is explicit skill list. The posting includes "Exceptional planning and self-management skills. Thorough knowledge of distribution, promotion and selling techniques. Sales experience, including experience selling promotion and marketing programs. Strong working knowledge of MS Office Suite." Those are skills. Could put under Skills. Qualifications could be education and experience: Bachelor's Degree, experience in spirits industry, licensed driver, ability for intermittent travel. But we can combine.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. The Pay section: The posting includes salary range: $125,000- $155,000 along with an annual bonus, 401K match, profit sharing, and medical and wellness benefits. Also mentions relocation etc not guaranteed. So we can have Pay section with salary range and maybe benefits? Benefits section separate: medical and wellness benefits, 401K match, profit sharing, annual bonus. The posting also mentions "While relocation, immigration, and/or tax compliance support are not guaranteed, we may offer assistance..." That's not a benefit per se but could be included under Benefits? Might be considered but it's not guaranteed; maybe we can omit as it's not a guaranteed benefit. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can include Benefits with specific items: annual bonus, 401K match, profit sharing, medical and wellness benefits. Pay section: salary range $125,000-$155,000.
Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit Schedule.
Now Responsibilities: The posting includes many bullet-like sentences. We need to convert to

We need to avoid duplication: The first bullet list before "Duties and responsibilities include but are not limited to:" includes some similar items; we should combine but not duplicate. We'll just list all unique responsibilities. Might be okay to include both sets but ensure no duplicate sentences. Let's merge.
We'll produce a
with each responsibility as - . Ensure we keep the content exactly as in posting (maybe minor punctuation). We'll not invent.
Now Qualifications: The posting includes:
- Bachelor’s Degree in business or equivalent experience.
- Exceptional planning and self-management skills.
- Thorough knowledge of distribution, promotion and selling techniques.

- Experience working with Account Buyers
- Experience in spirits industry – Channel Management, On-Premise and Off-Premise Experience, and People Leadership all considered.
- Licensed driver of motor vehicles.
- Ability for intermittent travel.
We could separate Qualifications (education, experience) and Skills (planning, knowledge, MS Office, etc). But the instruction says we can have sections for Qualifications and Skills. Let's decide:
Qualifications: Bachelor’s Degree in business or equivalent experience; Experience working with Account Buyers; Experience in spirits industry – Channel Management, On-Premise and Off-Premise Experience, and People Leadership; Licensed driver of motor vehicles; Ability for intermittent travel.
Skills: Exceptional planning and self-management skills; Thorough knowledge of distribution, promotion and selling techniques; Sales experience, including experience selling promotion and marketing programs; Strong working knowledge of MS Office Suite.

Now Benefits: annual bonus, 401K match, profit sharing, medical and wellness benefits.
Pay: salary range $125,000- $155,000 (note space after dash). We'll keep as "$125,000- $155,000". Could also note along with annual bonus etc but that's benefits.
We should not include "commensurate with experience" etc. The posting says: "The salary range for this role is $125,000- $155,000 along with an annual bonus, 401K match, profit sharing, and medical and wellness benefits. The salary range is commensurate with the candidate’s location, experience, and skillset. The range will vary if outside of this location. While relocation, immigration, and/or tax compliance support are not guaranteed, we may offer assistance to successful candidates depending on factors such as role requirements in accordance with company guidelines."
We should omit the commensurate sentence and the relocation note as it's not a guaranteed benefit. Keep only the specific salary range and benefits.
Now About the role: We need to include company overview and what makes this a great opportunity. The posting includes:

Suntory Global Spirits has evolved into the world's third largest leading premium spirits company ... where each employee is treated like family and trusted with legacy.

We'll put that as About the role (or About the company). We'll keep as is.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:

Check for any duplicated content: Ensure we didn't repeat the same sentence.
Now let's craft the About the role paragraph(s). Could be two paragraphs: first about company culture, second about opportunity. We'll combine into maybe two elements.
We'll need to preserve all substantive info; we can split but keep all.
