MINNEAPOLIS — Target Corporation has appointed Amy Tu as its new chief legal and compliance officer and corporate secretary, effective August 25. Tu will take over from Don Liu, who recently announced his retirement and will transition into a strategic advisory role through May 2025.

In her new role, Tu will lead Target’s legal, compliance, and corporate governance functions, reporting directly to Brian Cornell, Target’s chair and CEO. Cornell expressed confidence in Tu’s appointment, noting her extensive experience in legal and business leadership. “Amy’s growth mindset, her passion for the law, and her skill as a business counselor make her a great addition as our leadership team drives Target's roadmap for growth and enterprise priorities," said Cornell.

Amy Tu brings a wealth of experience to Target, having previously held senior legal and leadership roles at Tyson Foods, Boeing, Walmart, and The Gap.
