Who We Are

BURGER KING®, TIM HORTONS®, and POPEYES® are iconic brands. But Restaurant Brands International itself is relatively new. Over the past ten years, RBI has acquired these three powerhouses and expanded around the world. We are an industry leader within the quick service restaurant sector with more than $30 billion in system sales and over 27,000 restaurants in over 100 countries and US territories.

RBI is dynamic, inventive, diverse, entrepreneurial, and never afraid to take risks. We are growing fast, thinking faster and constantly exploring new opportunities. We have big plans for the future and for the people who want to make that future happen. We know the secret ingredient to our success is our people, and our goal is to attract and retain interns that are humble, hardworking, and hungry to take on new challenges over a 10- week internship that is specific to Operational functions such as Equipment & Systems, Training, Guest Experience, Restaurant Operations, and Food Safety across all three brands.

Be bold. Think bigger.

For the first time, RBI has designed an internship that is specifically geared to tackle one of RBI’s largest function areas – Data Science. 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. 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 Technical Development Program (TLP), Machine Learning immediately after graduation! Continue to be a part of the excitement!

The Summer Internship

After onboarding and training, you’ll jump right into your team project, honing your collaboration and interpersonal skills.
