Job Description

Target is a leading retail company known for providing a wide array of products that cater to families and individuals seeking quality, style, and value. Founded with a vision to help all families discover the joy of everyday life, Target has grown into a trusted store brand across various communities. Their commitment to excellent customer experiences, diverse product offerings, and a culture that values inclusivity and engagement makes them a leading employer in the retail sector. Target offers a dynamic work environment where team members play an essential role in delivering outstanding service, fostering guest loyalty, and contributing to the overall success and reputation of the company.

The On-Demand Team Member role at Target offers exceptional flexibility, allowing employees to choose shifts that align with their personal schedules via a mobile scheduling app. This unique work model is ideal for individuals who desire a personalized and adaptable work routine, with no requirement to appear on a posted weekly schedule. This flexibility, however, comes with the responsibility of maintaining reliable and prompt attendance for any selected shifts. Employees must engage consistently by working at least one shift every four weeks and respond actively to reach-out attempts by the company. Failure to maintain these standards could lead to termination.

As an On-Demand Team Member, you will undergo structured training and orientation to equip you with necessary tools and knowledge for success. The role focuses significantly on delivering excellent guest service in a retail environment, including guest interaction, problem-solving, loyalty enrollment, and operational tasks such as scanning and bagging items. Team members are encouraged to promote the store’s digital services, help guests with app features, and maintain cleanliness and compliance with safety policies.

This role is fast-paced and physically engaging, demanding strong communication skills, an approachable and helpful attitude, and the ability to manage multiple tasks efficiently. Potential candidates should be comfortable operating technology such as handheld scanners and mobile devices and be capable of physical activities like lifting merchandise and standing for extended periods. The On-Demand Team Member position also supports store operations like order pickup, drive-up services, and participation in cash office processes.

Target invests in meaningful experiences for its team members, emphasizing career skill development within a supportive culture. The Guest Advocate responsibilities under this role deeply engage with customers, aiming to exceed service expectations and drive store loyalty by educating guests about benefits, services, and upcoming events. Flexibility with work hours—including nights, weekends, and holidays—is critical to supporting peak business demands effectively.

Overall, this role at Target combines a flexible, customer-focused work experience with the opportunity to gain valuable skills in retail operations and guest services. The company offers competitive hourly wages, comprehensive training, and a commitment to employee well-being and inclusiveness. This position is highly suited for individuals who thrive in a collaborative, energetic retail environment and who value the chance to manage their work schedule while contributing to a trusted and respected retail brand.
