Default Offset function with inconsisent data location

I have been trying to use the offset function, but I guess I don't understand
the functionality enough to customize, so here is the issue. I have one
column of data which contains a firm name, address, city, state, zip. I want
to move that data from the rows to new columns with those titles, so the data
can be used more effectively.The problem is the data is incomplete, so it
looks like this:
Engineer
John Smith
<blank
<blank
Jane Smith
<blank
<blank
<blank
<blank
John Doe
123 Main St
Anywhere, TX 78101

I need to get to:
Col1 Col2 Col 3
Engineer Address City,State,Zip

I am having difficulty since there is no consistency to the number of blank
rows in the original column, but I cannot simply delete them since there is
data in those rows in other columns. Does that make sense? Please help,
thanks.
