Venue Sales Associate
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide which content goes into lists vs prose.
Sections likely:
- About the role (Position Summary) maybe as About the role heading. Could be "About the role". Use
About the role
then with summary.
- Responsibilities: Could be "Responsibilities" heading with list of duties.
- Requirements: Could be "Requirements" heading with list of qualifications? But we also have Qualifications section. Might combine.
Better: Use headings as per list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to include only those with real content.
Let's map:
About the role: Position Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities: General Duties and Responsibilities (list). Could be a

Requirements: maybe Experience/Education? Or "Experience/Education:" could be Requirements. But we also have Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. Could split.

We have Experience/Education: bullet list.
Travel: mention up to 10% travel required. Could be part of Requirements or separate.
Benefits: list.
Pay: salary description.
Schedule: flexible schedule info.
We also have Description about Denver Botanic Gardens (About the organization). Could be "About Denver Botanic Gardens" but not in prescribed headings. Could put under "About the role"? Might be separate but not in list. However we could include as a paragraph under a heading like "About the Organization" but not allowed headings? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exclusive list. So we can add other headings if appropriate, but better to stick to given ones. The description about the gardens could be placed under "About the role" or maybe as a separate paragraph before sections. But we need to preserve all substantive info. Could add a
before sections describing the gardens.
We must not include boilerplate like "Come work for a place that offers you SO much more than just a paycheck!" That's promotional but still substantive? Might be considered fluff but it's part of posting. It's not boilerplate legal; we can keep.
We need to remove duplicated lines. There's some duplication: "Ensures all events are set properly..." appears twice? Actually appears once. Check.
Let's extract content.
I'll parse the posting:
