Who We Are

BURGER KING®, TIM HORTONS®, and POPEYES® are truly iconic brands. But Restaurant Brands International itself is relatively new. Burger King Corporation was acquired by the Brazilian private equity firm, 3G Capital Partners, in October 2010. Burger King Corporation then acquired Tim Hortons Inc. in December 2014 and they combined to form Restaurant Brands International. In early 2017, we acquired Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc. and welcomed it into the RBI family. We are an industry leader with more than $30 billion in system sales and over 25,000 restaurants in over 100 countries and US territories. It all makes this an exciting place to be. RBI is dynamic, inventive, entrepreneurial, and never afraid to take risks. We are growing fast, thinking even faster, and constantly exploring new opportunities. Our shared determination to achieve ever-greater things is what drives us. We have big plans for the future and for the people who want to make that future happen.

Be bold. Think big.

Our 10-week internships for undergraduates give top-performing individuals an early taste of real business challenges. During your summer with us, you’ll get to own at least one key project that’s been selected by our senior leaders. Past projects have included boosting our brand’s social media presence or improving the onboarding experience for new employees – projects which offer the opportunity to make a tangible impact on the business. This is definitely not a coffee-getting, copy-making kind of internship – you’ll be using your talents to the fullest. Do well, and we’ll invite you to join our Leadership Development Program after you graduate.

The Program

Global Onboarding

It all begins with orientation at one of our corporate offices. We’ll give you an in-depth overview of our business and culture, and you’ll spend a day getting hands-on experience in one of our restaurants.

Project work

After onboarding and training, you’ll jump right into your project. Whatever that is, it will enable you to make an impact on our organization – every project we assign to our interns receives sign off by our CEO and Leadership team.

Ongoing support

You’ll receive plenty of guidance, support, and exposure. Your summer schedule will include training, leadership team lunch-and-learns, formal and informal performance reviews, and social opportunities.

Final presentation

At the end of your internship, you’ll deliver a presentation, reviewing your results, and recommendations with members of our leadership team.

What You Need:

• A good academic track record – you should be a 3rd year student, working towards a bachelor’s degree at an accredited post-secondary institution.
• A performance-focused, results-oriented approach – you’ll have a strong work ethic and a determination to achieve success.
• Strong ownership mentality and exceptional levels of self-motivation, ambition, and entrepreneurial spirit.
