About us:

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

Target's distinctive brand love is infused throughout its many physical locations by the Properties teams. We have a direct and positive impact on the real estate, design, construction and maintenance of our stores, distribution centers and headquarters. Are you ready to help strategically grow Target's brand through leading-edge design, development, construction and preservation? Can you effectively balance the efficiencies of a large-design build company with the unique challenges and innovative solutions required by individual sites?

Using your industry experience and analytical skillset, you'll lead and partner on the assessment of onsite and offsite renewable energy, storage, and demand response program offerings. This role also collaborates across multiple teams in providing expertise and input to Scope 1, 2, and 3 Emissions and CDP reporting submissions. Leads and manages Target's inventory of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), Carbon Offsets and the associated vendor relationships and agreements.
