Territory Manager - Louisville KY

We need to output only HTML fragment, with sections using

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Only applicants requiring reasonable accommodation..." maybe considered EEO? It's EEO statement; should be removed. Also remove "Reynolds American Inc. and its affiliated companies is an Equal Opportunity/ Affirmative Action Employer..." etc. Also remove "See what is possible for you at Reynolds American." etc. Also remove "Global Top Employer..." etc? That is company info; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not strictly required but could be considered fluff. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The company description may be considered not boilerplate but could be kept if substantive. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. The company description about purpose, etc might be considered substantive? It's more marketing fluff but not required. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We can include About the role (maybe a paragraph summarizing role). Responsibilities: list bullet points. Requirements: maybe education/qualifications. Skills: technical/functional/leadership skills. Benefits: benefit info. Pay: salary and bonus. Schedule: maybe not present; there is no explicit schedule info besides travel up to 200 miles per day, ability to travel frequently. That's not schedule. So we may omit Schedule section. Pay: we have Annual Salary $68,700 Bonus Target 20%. That's specific. Benefits: we have detailed list. So include Benefits and Pay sections. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. The job title is Territory Manager. Not used. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content: About the role: The posting starts with "Reynolds American is evolving into a global multi-category business..." then description of purpose, then "Reynolds American has an exciting opportunity for a Territory Manager within our Marketing Function in Louisville, KY.

You will be responsible for growing brands by building strong, lasting relationships with key clients and stakeholders.

About the role

with

paragraphs. Responsibilities: list of bullet points under "Your Key Responsibilities Will Include". We'll extract each sentence as list item. Let's list them: - Achieves commercial sales and growth objectives within territory assignment in support of Division, Region, and Company goals. - Develops a local strategy and business plan for meeting individualized territory objectives, including identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and targeting existing and potential retail outlets within geographic territory for product sales opportunities. - Develops strategy for product and Point of Sale (POS) material placements to optimize sales and market visibility. - Achieve customer/consumer engagement skills certification and consistently demonstrate mastery within Territory. - Builds client willingness and capability to collaborate with the Company on key business fundamentals and drivers to accelerate the transformation of the tobacco industry, and to increase market share. - Develops and maintains business relationships with local chains and distributors to increase sales and promote Reynolds brands through personal correspondence and influence, retail visits and presentations. - Sell/execute the 5Ps of presence, pricing, promotion, product, and personal selling to customers and adult nicotine consumers. - Analyses territory to identify and negotiate contracts with new retail customer opportunities. - Collaborates with Division Manager on territory-specific customer and sales planning, company product initiatives, and improving market share within the territory.

. Requirements: maybe Education / Qualifications / Certifications section: "Bachelor’s degree or comparable work experience preferred." Also "What are we looking for?" includes Proven ability to work independently and collaboratively..., Committed to continuous personal and professional growth., Proficient in MS Office applications.

Regardless of why you took a break, we value you for all the skills you can bring to the workforce. Reignite your career, work flexibly, be part of a dynamic team and upskill yourself with on-the-job training and development support." That's more about career break; maybe keep as part of Requirements? It's somewhat specific but could be considered a note. However it's not a requirement per se; it's an invitation. Might be considered boilerplate? Not exactly EEO. It's a specific program for career break. Might be considered substantive. But we can include under Requirements or maybe a separate section? There's no heading for Career Break. Could include under Requirements as a note. But we need to avoid duplication. Also "Collaboration, inclusion and teamwork underpin everything we do here at Reynolds American..." that's fluff. We'll keep Requirements as education and experience. Skills: Technical / Functional / Leadership Skills Required include, but are not limited to list. We'll extract each bullet. List: - Ability to communicate with and engage retail customers and adult nicotine consumers in person. - Effective influencing, sales, negotiation, and marketing skills - Highly effective verbal and written communication skills - Excellent analytical skills - Project Management Skills - Good business judgment - Leadership, self-motivation, and initiative - Has a high level of persistence, resilience, and results orientation. - Conflict management and problem-solving for mutually beneficial results - Strategic and financial acumen to enable the identification, evaluation, and action against business growth opportunities - Ability to travel frequently. - Ability to drive up to 200 miles per day. - Valid U.S. driver’s license and safe driving records Physical Requirements Include, But Are Not Limited To list: - Ability to lift to 30 lbs. - Ability to climb and work from heights ranging from 9 to 12 feet. - Ability to access and work in limited and confined spaces. - Ability to visually inspect and manipulate merchandise and advertising displays. - Ability to frequently stoop, kneel and crouch. These could be part of Skills or maybe separate? The instruction says use headings for Skills. We could put all skill-related under Skills heading, including physical requirements? Might be okay. But physical requirements could be considered separate but we don't have a heading for Physical Requirements. Could include under Skills as well. Benefits: we have detailed list. We'll include as

• . Pay: Annual Salary $68,700 Bonus Target 20%. Schedule: none. We must not include boilerplate like "We are Reynolds American —A member of the British American Tobacco Group..." etc. That's company description; maybe considered not boilerplate but could be fluff. However it's substantive info about company. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. It does not explicitly say to remove company description. But we might keep a brief About the role paragraph that already includes some of that. The company description after "We are Reynolds American —A member of the British American Tobacco Group" includes many bullet points about Global Top Employer etc. That could be considered fluff but not prohibited. However to keep sections few, we might omit that as it's not directly about the role. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit that. Also remove "Your journey with us is not limited by boundaries; it is propelled by your aspirations..." etc. That's fluff. Also remove "You will have access to online learning platforms..." etc. Also remove "Reynolds American Inc. and its affiliated companies is an Equal Opportunity/ Affirmative Action Employer..." etc. Also remove "Only applicants requiring reasonable accommodation..." etc. Now construct HTML. We'll have:
