Right on pace with Target’s distinctive retail brand, Target Finance and Accounting are transforming for the better. As so much more than a behind-the-scenes number-cruncher, you will be a truly collaborative partner with a seat at the table. You’ll bring your unique point of view, experience and passion for the work to your team and internal clients. Within Finance, you’ll enjoy the interesting challenges of the competitive retail space, and you’ll have a 360-degree impact—rather than on just one part of the business. You’ll see your contributions come to life in virtually every area of this dynamic enterprise. And you’ll grow and be challenged in your career while having a healthy balance with life outside of work.
A role in Finance Risk & Controls calls on your risk acumen and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance knowledge to build a world-class internal control environment. Here, you’ll collaborate to assess risk, design controls and provide insights to develop innovative risk management solutions. Championing an adaptive, initiative driven and transformational mindset to cultivate new ideas will be critical to ensuring the success of Target’s business initiatives and core retail operations.
As a Senior Manager in Risk & Controls, you will be a leader on a team that builds strong partnerships across Finance & Accounting, Technology, and Enterprise Risk to provide consulting services and guidance on internal controls. You will proactively identify existing and emerging risks, assist with maintaining a comprehensive internal control program for the company, and partner with business teams to develop practical control solutions that support both business objectives and compliance requirements.
You will work closely with business and technology partners throughout significant business and systems transformation initiatives to evaluate risk, improve and evolve internal control documentation (including process maps, risk control matrices, and process narratives), and help ensure the control environment keeps pace with changing processes and technologies. You will apply your knowledge of automated controls, system integrations, data flows, and technology-enabled processes to thoughtfully design controls in a practical way.
You will exercise your program management skills to support the end-to-end operations of the SOX program, make thoughtful recommendations related to system and control scoping, and leverage continuous improvement strategies to strengthen the overall control environment. Success in this role requires sound judgment, the ability to navigate ambiguity, and strong communication skills to translate complex topics into clear, actionable insights. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.
