Track and Field- Field Events Coach

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Need to extract sections: About the role? The posting includes description. We'll create sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications? The posting includes "Requirements" list. Also "Who You Are" maybe part of responsibilities? Could treat as "Responsibilities". Also "What You'll Do" is responsibilities. Also "Athlete Health, Safety, and Wellness", "Program Operations Support", "Collaboration and Organizational Alignment", "Compliance and Data-Informed Decision-Making". Might be too many sections; we should prefer few substantive sections. Could combine many into Responsibilities. Requirements section is clear. Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present. So we output sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (combined from What You'll Do, Athlete Health..., Program Operations..., Collaboration..., Compliance...), Requirements (list). Use

for each heading. Use

• for lists. Use

  for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like "For more information, check out Want to Work at Harlem Children's Zone? Here's 7 Things You Need to Know." That's a link; we should drop that line. Also remove application instructions etc. There's none explicit. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from the posting: mission, role description, responsibilities bullet points, requirements bullet points, etc. We'll craft About the role paragraph summarizing first paragraph: Harlem Children's Zone seeks Track & Field Field Events Coach, mission, etc. Responsibilities: combine many bullet-like sentences from "What You'll Do" sections etc. We'll produce a

  with each responsibility as
