Target • Minneapolis, MN

2d • $71,000 - $128,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Target’s Supply Chain is evolving at an incredible pace. We are constantly reimagining how we get the right product to the right guest even better, faster and more cost effectively than before. We are becoming more intelligent, automated and algorithmic in our decision-making, so that no matter how guests shop—in stores or on Target.com—we deliver the convenience and immediate gratification they demand and deserve. We are on a mission to win decisively over any competitor, with a seamless and superior guest service experience unlike any they can offer. Are you a critical thinker who seeks the root cause and can analyze both qualitatively and quantitatively? Are you a creative problem-solver who simplifies problems, quickly identifies solutions, commits to a plan and then positively influences others to execute it? If so, you will have success on one of our dynamic teams. A role on the Supply Chain Operations team means you will support our supply chain facilities in making it easy to deliver to stores and guests while unlocking enterprise growth. You will leverage your analytical capabilities to design and deploy supply chain measures within our value stream and analyze data which solve highly complex business problems related to performance and quality. You will work directly with our field teams to design leading and lagging supply chain metrics and then work with data and business intelligence partners to construct, test, and deploy those metrics across Target’s network. Your role will heavily involve working the data, extracting business insights from data, solving problem statements, gap analysis, and constantly evaluating what additional visibility is needed to drive business performance. As a Sr. Supply Chain Analyst, Recommerce Planning, you will be responsible for disposition forecasting, scenario planning, and troubleshooting $400M+ Recommerce Income goals for Target’s retail products that have been marked out of stock. You will provide ongoing decision support for the total reverse network, inclusive of recommending actions to merchant, stores, and GSCL teams to reduce the overall volume entering the reverse network as well as directing goods to the most optimal disposition channel (RTV, Recommerce, Donation, etc.). You will provide inputs into the annual financial planning and monthly forecasting processes for the total reverse network. You will own the health and profitability of high value salvage channels at return centers. You will conduct root-cause analysis for variation between plan and actuals, coordinate resolution plans across teams, and implement action plans to drive and improve profitability. Core responsibilities are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.
