Description:
Target Global Supply Chain and Logistics 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. Our teams work with the agility our mission requires, and we constantly come together to implement new processes in record time. So we're looking for exceptional people who are proactive, creative, independent, innovative, risk-savvy and comfortable working in varying degrees of ambiguity. 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 in Global Transportation and Logistics, means you'll focus on the efficient transportation of product around the world. Here, you'll be challenged to pivot seamlessly from sales operations and planning, to ensuring compliance with U.S. Customs regulations, to achieving the best possible product availability through proper inventory positioning. You'll establish and develop great relationships with our vendors to encourage on-time shipment and delivery to stores and ultimately, guests. And you'll analyze transportation supplier capabilities and contracts for maximum speed, reliability and cost effectiveness.

As a Sr. Logistics Analyst, International Inbound Logistics, you'll be key to the success of timely delivery of import product from our overseas vendors into Target's distribution centers. Through the use of data, strong problem solving skills and effective management of our third party providers, you will play a pivotal role in driving speed and precision within Target's supply chain. In addition, you will become a subject matter expert in Target's import supply chain, being a key resource for both Target's inventory management teams and our third party providers.

Requirements:
  • 4 yr college degree or equivalent work experience
  • 2+ years of business experience in sourcing/buying, supply chain, logistics, or transportation
  • Proven track record of taking ownership, driving results, managing multiple projects
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Access, Visio, and Word applications
  • Strong organization and problem solving skills
  • High proficiency with communicating, collaborating and engaging across the organization and with external partners
  • Ability to sort through data to identify root cause and leverage for problem solving
  • Must be curious, with the ability to apply new tools to business processes and problems
  • Comfortable with ambiguity
