John Simms

Versatile team member offering over 18 years of experience handling tasks smoothly and efficiently. Adapts well to changing processes, programs and team requirements. Eager to contribute to growing company. I started with Target 1292 in September, 2003, as a member of the Flow Team, unloading trucks and stocking shelves. During this time I would pick up shifts working in the backroom, as well as helping with the planogram team. In August, 2006, I transferred to a brand new Target store, Target 2182, in Somersworth, New Hampshire, as a backroom team member. I was there for plan-o-rama and to help get the store ready for opening. It was during this time that I was approached about becoming a Team Leader for Target. I became the Backroom Team Leader there and stayed in that role for about 13 months, before moving over and becoming the Price Accuracy Team Leader. In August of 2008, I moved back to Virginia and transferred back to Target 1292. At this time I went back to the flow team and backroom team. In September, 2009 I was promoted to Backroom Team Leader again and remained in that position until the position dissolved during Target's modernization. I then became a General Merchandising Team Leader with a concentration on the Fulfillment process. Over the course of my 18+ years with Target, I also received the titles of Riser Captain, Inventory Captain, and Team Trainer. I was also the "Target Great Team Hero" multiple times for Target 1292, as well as the D457 Team Hero in May, 2010.
