About us:

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

Fueling the continued success of one of the world's most beloved and recognized brands is a distinctly capable, creative and innovative Marketing organization. Target Marketing is well known for inspiring and surprising guests, and we pride ourselves on connecting them to the products and experiences they expect and deserve from Target. We study our guests to discover new needs and insights, and then craft every interaction to build brand love. We are market experts who insist on a clear and cohesive understanding of our business objectives, guest segments and behaviors, strategies and tactics, overcoming obstacles and measuring success. Our commitment to partnering both internally and with external agencies gives us a wide range of capabilities, from award-winning creative work to exciting and unique promotional marketing. Leveraging our collective assets and fostering a healthy, supportive and open team culture, we deliver a holistically gratifying experience that guests can only get at Target.

A role with Target In-Store Marketing means an opportunity to shape our guests' holistic experience of our marketing content inside our stores. You'll drive the success of both forward-thinking projects and best practices that have a global impact on In-Store Marketing's activities. Bring your exceptional skills for prioritization to allocate and manage projects to meet budget and timing parameters. Here, you'll balance efficiency with effectiveness as you oversee the production and logistics for all In-Store Marketing deliverables.

As a Print Production Manager - ISM, you'll be responsible for the production of In-Store Marketing elements for multiple categories and businesses while identifying and implementing improvements to both processes and outputs. Through cross-functional relationships with planners, project managers, design, logistics and print vendors, you'll lead the charge to ensure that ISM is produced correctly, on time and on budget. You will also seek creative solutions to overcome obstacles and/or problem solve with team as needed. Your attention to detail must be on point as you will not only direct all of the specifications to the vendors, but also proof their work through both mechanical and on-site visits. Bring on those math skills too, as you will be responsible for owning each of the category budgets and keeping the team informed of its health along the way. Speaking of, communication is key. In this role, you will need to be able to effectively communicate with all of your partners, internally and externally. On a daily basis, this could consist of understanding a creative concept from design, to communicating color direction to an agency, to requesting quotes from a vendor, to simply emailing a fellow team member. Additional areas of responsibility focus on understanding the various store designs and hardware used within them as well as assisting with onboarding of new vendor partnerships.
