  • Prevent theft and shortage at the front of store by performing merchandise receipt checks while adhering to AP policies, as well as recognizing and communicating trends.
  • 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.

  • 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.
