Working at Target means helping all families discover the joy of everyday life. We bring that vision to life through our values and culture.

All about assets protection

Assets Protection (AP) teams function to keep our guests, team, and brand secure and lead through crisis events. They protect profitable sales by mitigating shortage risks, preventing, and resolving theft and fraud to ensure product is available for our guests.

At Target, we believe in our team members having meaningful experiences that help them build and develop skills for a career. The role of a Target Security Specialist can provide you with the :

  • Skills in de-escalation as well as experience with physical security controls and culture
  • Ability to utilize Target's video surveillance system
  • Ability to timely and accurately document cases using case management systems

As a Target Security Specialist, no two days are ever the same, but a typical day will most likely include the following responsibilities :

  • Create a welcoming experience by greeting guests at the front of the store.
  • Promote a physical security culture for our team members and guests by assessing and maintaining safe and secure standards throughout the store, including exterior property.
  • Respond to and accurately document security incidents in a timely manner.

  • Conduct merchandise theft recoveries and provide theft apprehension support as needed, strictly adhering to AP policies.
  • Prevent theft and shortage at the front of the store by performing merchandise receipt checks while adhering to AP policies.
  • Submit appropriate documentation in the case management system for all incidents following AP policy and procedures.
  • Understand and appropriately use Target's video surveillance system.
  • Demonstrate a culture of ethical conduct, safety, and compliance.
  • Work in a safe manner at all times; comply with all safety policies, best practices, and training; report hazards and correct where possible.
  • All other duties based on business needs.
  • What we are looking for

    This may be the right job for you if :

  • You thrive in a fast-moving, highly active, and physically demanding role, where teamwork, flexibility, and creative problem solving are key to success.
  • You are open to working a flexible work schedule with varying hours, days, or shifts (including nights, weekends, holidays, and other peak shopping times).
  • The good news is that we have some amazing training that will help teach you everything you need to know to be a Target Security Specialist. But, there are a few skills you should have from the get-go :

  • Must be at least 18 years of age or older
  • High school diploma or equivalent

  • Work both independently and with a team
  • Manage workload and prioritize tasks independently
  • Capability to remain focused and composed in a fast-paced environment and accomplish multiple tasks within established timeframes
