Sr. Procurement Specialist
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". We must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove the AI notice? That's maybe legal boilerplate; but it's about recruitment process; might be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The AI notice is legal-ish but maybe not required to keep? It's about recruitment process; could be considered legal. Safer to remove it. Also remove the links to FMLA etc. Also remove "JOIN OUR TALENT NETWORK". Also remove the "For more detailed information on the CF programs, please visit our Total Rewards website at: https://cftotalrewards.com/" maybe keep as part of Benefits? It's a link; but we can keep as part of benefits description. However the instruction says remove boilerplate; that link is not boilerplate but it's a reference. Might keep.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe mission statement and job summary). Responsibilities (strategic and operational accountabilities). Requirements (education, experience, other attributes). Qualifications (maybe incumbent attributes like knowledge of Coupa/Ariba, SAP S4, Microsoft 360, Tableau, technical knowledge). Skills (communications, interpersonal, decision making, strategic influence). Benefits (incentive program, comprehensive benefits package, flexible work arrangements). Pay (not specified? It mentions incentive program but not base pay; we have no explicit pay; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does not state base pay or salary range, so we should not include Pay. Schedule: not specified; do not include.
We must not create sections with filler. So we will include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits.
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; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details from the posting.
Let's extract content.

Supervisory Relationships: "Position Reports To: Site Procurement and Material Control Manager Subordinate Positions: None". This could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section but we don't have a heading for supervisory; we could include under Requirements as a note. But we need to preserve all substantive info. We could include under Requirements as a
or maybe under a separate heading like "Supervisory Relationships" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put supervisory info under Requirements (since it's about the role). Or we could put under Qualifications. Probably Requirements.
Incumbent Attributes: Education, Years of experience, Other unique job relevant attributes, Excellent technical knowledge...
We need to split into Requirements (education, experience) and Qualifications (knowledge of tools, technical knowledge). Skills (communications, interpersonal, complexity, decision making authority, strategic influence). Also Position Scope/Contribution: Breadth of Scope, Communications and Interpersonal Skills, Complexity, Decision Making Authority, Strategic Influence. Those could go under Skills.

We need to keep that.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
