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 faster and more cost effectively than before. We are becoming more intelligent, automated and data-driven 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. 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.

About the Role:

A role on the Supply Chain Operations, Process Design and Innovation (PDI) Team means helping shape the future of Target's supply chain by owning the process design for the operations functions in our network. This includes future design requirements, cycle time modeling, Standard Work documentation, training, field implementation, and problem solving until a run-state handoff. The team brings operations requirements to optimize and modernize our legacy Regional Distribution Centers. We do this through time in site, field feedback, benchmarking, testing, and problem solving efforts.

As a Senior Process Owner, RDC Design Team, you will help shape the future of Target’s supply chain. You will own the Packing function within future process design and sit at the intersection of design and scalable operational development. You will lead small-to-medium scope intake initiatives or own workstreams within larger intakes that evaluate new processes to unlock step-change technology and efficiency improvements across Target’s supply chain. This is hands-on work where you will frame the problem and impact, measurable opportunities, partner with product, data, operations, finance, safety, field teams, build the metric plan and business case, coordinate validation or pilot readiness, and create recommendations.

  • Own Process Design for Packing functions
  • Create future design requirements and process flows for modernized Warehouse Management System (WMS)

  • Coordinate cross-functional partners including product, technology, field, data and analytics, finance, safety, and quality.
  • Use benchmarking, operational observations, data analysis, root cause analysis, and metric planning to determine whether a process is scalable and creating business value
  • Develop and manage project plans, decision logs, action items, test plans, validation criteria, and handoff documentation that keep work organized, aligned, and moving forward.
  • Create clear, simple, and visually effective communication materials that translate complex insights, tradeoffs, progress, risks, decisions needed, and recommendations into a compelling story that builds stakeholder confidence and excitement in the team’s work.
  • Facilitate meetings and working sessions that clarify roles, resolve misalignment, remove barriers, and maintain momentum across teams with different priorities and operating constraints.

Minimum Position Requirements:

  • Four-year degree or equivalent experience in engineering, supply chain, process improvement, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of relevant experience in supply chain, engineering, process improvement
  • Experience in Warehouse Management System (WMS) is preferred (either in direct experience or close partnership with Product/Tech teams to improve/modernize WMS functionality for Operations)
  • Experience improving an operational process or evaluating a process or technology solution using a combination of data, observation, root-cause problem solving, and measurable success criteria.
  • Experience leading small-to-medium scope initiatives or larger workstreams in cross-functional environments, including coordinating partners, managing action items, resolving issues, and developing recommendations.
  • Working knowledge of structured problem-solving approaches such as Lean, Six Sigma, Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control (DMAIC), value stream mapping, metric planning, or pilot/validation planning.
  • Strong analytical capability using Excel and operational data to size opportunities, validate assumptions, identify patterns, and support business recommendations; experience with SQL, data extraction, or data visualization is a plus.
  • Ability to create clear written and visual materials that explain complex process, engineering, data, and business tradeoffs to cross-functional partners.
  • Ability to travel up to 25% as needed to support benchmarking, validation, pilot, launch, handoff, or other business needs.

  • Experience with distribution center operations, warehouse process design, material handling systems, and WMS. Experience in rolling out new WMS systems is a plus.
  • Experience developing business cases, designing pilots, validating operational performance, or transitioning solutions to operational-owner teams.
  • Experience with data extraction, data visualization, simulation, Miro, Smartsheet, or other tools that support analysis, collaboration, and execution.
  • Lean/Six Sigma Green Belt certification, supply chain, industrial engineering, or automation-related certifications preferred.
