  • Promoting a culture of physical security by maintaining safe and secure standards throughout the store, including outdoor areas.
  • Responding to and documenting security incidents with precision.
  • Utilizing escalation tools for guest-related issues to maintain a secure environment.

  • You thrive in a dynamic and energetic environment.
  • You are passionate about providing exceptional service that makes guests feel valued.
  • You enjoy stocking, setting, and selling Target products.
