We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Watershed" description, then "The role" description, then "What You’ll Do", then "Qualifications". Also there is some extra info about interview process, accommodations, etc. According to instructions: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The interview process and accommodations might be considered application instructions? They are about interview process, not application instructions per se, but they might be considered part of the posting but not core job description. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The interview process and accommodations could be considered part of application instructions? Possibly they are not core job duties. Safer to omit them. Also we must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have About Watershed (company description) maybe as "About the role"? Actually "About Watershed" is company overview. Could be placed under a heading like "About the role"? But we have "About Watershed" describing company. Could use "About the role" heading for that? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings. Let's decide: - About the role: could include the description of Watershed and the role overview (the paragraph after "The role Watershed is looking for..."). - Responsibilities: the "What You’ll Do" bullet list. - Qualifications: the "Qualifications" list. - Skills: maybe we could extract skills from qualifications? But we already have Qualifications section; we could also have Skills if there are distinct skill items not covered. The qualifications list includes many items that are skills/experience. Could put them under Qualifications. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications. Possibly also Benefits/Pay/Schedule if present. The posting does not mention pay, benefits, schedule specifics beyond "Committed to being in-office Monday–Friday, 8:00 am–5:00 pm; occasional early mornings, evenings, and front desk support may be required." That's schedule info. Also "Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles)" and "Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week." That's schedule. So we could include a Schedule section with that info. Benefits: not mentioned. Pay: not mentioned. Skills: maybe we could combine with Qualifications. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Schedule. We need to use

for each heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from About Watershed, role overview, responsibilities list, qualifications list, schedule details. We must not include boilerplate like interview process, accommodations, etc. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content: About Watershed paragraph: "About Watershed Watershed is the enterprise sustainability platform. Companies like Airbnb, Carlyle Group, FedEx, Visa, and Dr. Martens use Watershed to manage climate and ESG data, produce audit-ready metrics for voluntary and regulatory reporting including CSRD, and drive real decarbonization. We are looking for team members who love product-building, want to work hard at a mission-oriented startup, and will collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team. We have offices in San Francisco, New York, Denver, London, Paris, Berlin, Sydney, Mexico City, and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!" Then role overview: "The role Watershed is looking for a proactive and people-focused Workplace Manager to lead the day-to-day experience at our San Francisco HQ. In this role, you'll bring the office to life, managing operations, driving the employee experience, and creating a space where teams can do their best work and feel connected to Watershed’s mission and culture. As part of our Global Workplace team you’ll own the employee experience at our SF office from the inside out, from snacks to space planning, culture to compliance. You’ll be the heart of our local office operations and a key partner in creating an environment that’s vibrant, well-run, and an overall great place to work." We can combine About Watershed and role overview under About the role. Responsibilities (What You’ll Do): List: - Serve as a high-touch, people-first point of contact for employees and guests, helping foster a positive and engaging office culture. - Manage day-to-day office operations, including vendors, food and beverage, supplies, maintenance, shipments, inventory, and employee requests. - Own the lifecycle of workplace events and experiences, from local happy hours and Community Group events to holiday parties and global all-company gatherings. - Own and track workplace and events budgets, maintaining accurate monthly spend and providing regular status updates to stakeholders. - Partner with People Ops on onboarding and offboarding, including desk assignments, workspace setup, inventory management, and conducting bi-weekly new hire onboarding sessions. - Coordinate space planning, desk moves, and other workplace projects. - Manage vendor relationships, contracts, invoices, and insurance documentation. - Ensure the office meets safety, security, compliance, and audit requirements. - Help develop and implement sustainable workplace and facilities practices. - Continuously identify ways to improve the employee experience, workplace operations, and efficiency. Qualifications list: - 3+ years of managerial experience in Workplace, Events, or similar employee-facing roles, ideally in a fast-paced environment supporting 150+ people. - Demonstrated experience planning and executing events, from small employee gatherings to large-scale company events. - Committed to being in-office Monday–Friday, 8:00 am–5:00 pm; occasional early mornings, evenings, and front desk support may be required. - Strong initiative, attention to detail, and customer service orientation. - Ability to appropriately handle sensitive and confidential information. - Excellent organizational skills with the ability to prioritize, meet deadlines, and manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment. - Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with employees, leadership, and external vendors. - Creative and proactive mindset, with a passion for enhancing the day-to-day employee experience while effectively managing costs. - Hands-on, resourceful problem solver with a “can-do” attitude. - Ability to lift up to 25 lbs. - Knowledge of Notion, Envoy, and Google Workspace is a plus. - Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles) Also schedule info elsewhere: "Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week." That's similar. We can combine schedule details: "Committed to being in-office Monday–Friday, 8:00 am–5:00 pm; occasional early mornings, evenings, and front desk support may be required." and "Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles)" and "Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week." We'll put under Schedule section. Now we need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. Not present. Now produce HTML:
