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 will bring your unique point of view, experience and passion for the work to your team and internal clients. In Finance, you will 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 will enjoy the interesting challenges of the competitive retail space, and you will have a 360-degree impact-rather than on just one part of the business. You will see your contributions come to life in virtually every area of this dynamic enterprise. In addition, you will grow and be challenged in your career while having a healthy balance with life
outside of work.

A role in the broader Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) 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 will drive outstanding financial results by enabling and accelerating Target's strategic execution.

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.

A role within the FP&A Transformation team means helping to connect processes, from strategy to guest, to drive continuous improvements that are sustainable. You will be a part of a team within Target that has visibility into where we have opportunities to improve how we execute, plan, and prioritize work and continue to elevate the way we meet the needs of the Guest across FP&A, Finance, and the Enterprise. You will use your influencing skills to help operationalize and activate how the organization works together connecting roles and
responsibilities and how work is successfully accomplished.

As a Senior Manager, FP&A Transformation, you will work alongside business leaders to assess the needs of FP&A and the business, understand the current situation, identify drivers for improvement, analyze root causes of performance gaps, and redesign end-to-end processes.
