The Operations Program Experience

If you’re ready for a general management training program that provides hand’s on operations, leadership, direct responsibility of a multi-unit P&L, then the Operations Leadership Development Program (OLDP) at Restaurant Brands International is your launchpad.

This is more than just mastering restaurant operations — it’s about owning results, learning fast, and making an impact on the guest experience, team culture, and restaurant performance.

Onboarding

Your RBI journey kicks off with a dedicated orientation where you’ll get to dive head-first into our culture at RBI, learn more about our business, brands and strategic plans, and dive hands-on into restaurant training to learn about the core of our business.

Year 1 – Restaurant Fundamentals

Learn to get comfortable in the restaurant environment, working directly with restaurant and operations leaders to learn every role in the restaurant, from team member to assistant manager, working alongside team members to build a solid foundation of restaurant knowledge and how to deliver an exceptional guest experience. You’ll also have the opportunity to build your problem solving and analytical capabilities, by working on operations projects throughout your first year.

Year 2 – Restaurant Management

Step into the role of Restaurant General Manager, where you’ll lead a Burger King® restaurant, managing a team of 20+ people and be accountable for performance, people, and guest satisfaction.

Year 3 – Operations Leadership
