Description:
Sr Financial Analyst, Stores Finance

About us:
Target is an iconic brand, a Fortune 50 company and one of America's leading retailers.

Right on pace with Target's distinctive retail brand, Target Finance and Accounting are transforming for the better. As so much more than a financial analyst or a behind-the-scenes number-cruncher, you will be a truly collaborative partner with a seat at the table. You'll bring your unique point of view, experience and passion for the work to your team and internal clients. In Finance, you'll be an integral voice in discussions that lead to Target's unparalleled shopping experience. Your analysis and recommendations will be directly applied to critical business decisions, from sales to merchandising and beyond. Within Accounting, you'll enjoy the interesting challenges of the competitive retail space, and you'll have a 360-degree impact-rather than on just one part of the business. You'll see your contributions come to life in virtually every area of this dynamic enterprise. And you'll grow and be challenged in your career while having a healthy balance with life outside of work.

A role in Financial Planning & Analysis means belonging to a great team of genuine, diverse, courageous and versatile people who put integrity and ethics at the heart of everything they do. Together, you'll drive outstanding financial results by enabling and accelerating Target's strategic execution. You'll nurture influential partnerships with leaders who value your credibility, thanks to the quality and reliability of your insights. To teams across Target, you'll bring your skills for analytical rigor, creative problem-solving and sound decision-making. You'll be an active contributor to cross-functional teams. You'll rise to the challenge of the dynamic retail industry, bringing innovative solutions that have a direct impact on financial and operational direction-setting, merchandising and capital investments and how to best use our resources. All of your good work will help elevate and maintain Target as one of the world's most recognized and best-loved retail brands.

As a Senior Financial Analyst, Stores Finance, you will be responsible for creating monthly hourly payroll plans for all of our store locations to help ensure store teams are positioned to deliver an outstanding experience for our guests and to help guide the enterprise to achieve financial goals. You will have a significant impact on driving optimal deployment of Target's $6B annual hourly payroll spend. You will build meaningful partnerships across FP&A and Stores teams as you continuously improve hourly payroll planning processes while delivering positive outcomes for Target. You will also be responsible for ad-hoc projects and delivering high-quality analytic insights to help drive decision making. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.

About you:
• B.A/B.S degree in Accounting or Finance
• Four or more years of relevant finance experience
• Significant experience working with spreadsheet applications (Microsoft Excel) and financial models
• Excellent analytical, decision-making, project management, planning and organization skills
• Outstanding communication and relationship-building skills
• Strong leadership skills with enthusiasm, initiative and a passion for results
