Join us on our journey to achieve our big dream of building the most loved restaurant brands in the world. Restaurant Brands International Inc. is one of the world's largest quick service restaurant companies with nearly $45 billion in annual system-wide sales and over 32,000 restaurants in more than 120 countries and territories. RBI owns four of the world’s most prominent and iconic quick service restaurant brands - TIM HORTONS®, BURGER KING®, POPEYES®, and FIREHOUSE SUBS®.

Each brand benefits from the global scale and shared best practices that come from ownership by Restaurant Brands International Inc. Position Overview RBI is seeking an exceptional Senior Director of Corporate Communications to serve as a strategic communications leader and trusted advisor to the company’s most senior executives. This is a high-impact, highly visible role at the intersection of media relations, executive communications, and corporate reputation - requiring someone equally comfortable crafting a CEO narrative for a major earnings event while managing a variety of global reputational issues. What makes this role genuinely distinctive is the level of access and influence it carries. This is not a role that supports the C‑suite from a distance - it operates directly alongside RBI’s top executives, serving as their primary communications counsel, strategic sounding board, and voice in the room when it matters most. Reporting to the Chief Corporate Officer, this leader will be the primary communications partner to the CEO, Executive Chairman, and other members of the C‑suite, while also serving as a strategic thought partner to the CCO and a close collaborator with the People team on culture and employer brand communications. They will lead RBI’s external corporate communications function – shaping how the company is perceived by media, investors, partners, policymakers, and the public. What Makes This Role Unique This is a rare opportunity to operate at the center of a high‑profile, globally recognized consumer brand portfolio – with direct access to and influence over some of the most visible business leaders in the restaurant industry. The person in this role will shape how RBI tells its story to the world at a time of accelerating momentum for the company. They will be a true partner to the CCO and a key voice on the leadership team – not just executing communications but helping set the direction. Key Responsibilities 1. Executive Advisory & C‑Suite Partnership Serve as the communications advisor to the CEO, Executive Chairman, and other senior leaders - on all matters related to corporate reputation, external messaging, and stakeholder communications.

Prepare executives for high‑stakes media interviews, analyst calls, and public appearances, including developing briefing books and coaching on message delivery. Be available and responsive to the needs of senior leadership, providing real‑time counsel during fast‑moving situations. 2. External Communications & Media Relations Own and drive RBI’s external corporate communications strategy, bringing fresh thinking to how the company tells its story – embracing a modern mix of channels and formats including long‑form content, corporate social platforms, podcasts, and earned media to reach diverse audiences in compelling ways. Lead media relations, cultivating and maintaining strong relationships with journalists and editors at top‑tier business, financial, trade, and consumer media outlets. Develop and execute a proactive earned media strategy that amplifies RBI’s business momentum, leadership, and brand portfolio across global markets. Manage reactive media inquiries with speed, accuracy, and judgment – including issues management and crisis communications when needed. Develop and maintain RBI’s corporate communications infrastructure: press releases, media kits, b‑roll, fact sheets, and the company’s internal and external websites. Own RBI’s external social media presence, including the corporate LinkedIn strategy (content calendar, measurement, paid programs, and executive amplification). 3. Reputation Management & Issues/Crisis Communications Proactively identify and monitor potential reputational risks across the business, providing early warning and strategic guidance to leadership.

Support quarterly earnings communications, including CEO/leadership talking points and any related media strategy. Help manage RBI’s corporate reputation with the financial media and broader analyst community. 6. People & Culture Communications Partnership Serve as the communications bridge between Corporate Affairs and the People team (led by Jeff Housman), ensuring employer brand, culture, and talent narratives are integrated into RBI’s external communications strategy. Collaborate on communications around major people initiatives – including culture, leadership announcements, and RBI’s ownership culture – ensuring messages are cohesive inside and outside the organization and serving as a champion for the values and mindset that define how RBI operates. Support the development of RBI’s employer brand presence in the external market through media placements, LinkedIn strategy, and thought leadership. 7. Brand & Cross‑Functional Collaboration Collaborate closely with the communications leads across Burger King, Tim Hortons, Popeyes, and Firehouse Subs to ensure corporate and brand narratives are mutually reinforcing. Partner with Marketing, Operations, Government Affairs, and Legal to ensure integrated, cross‑functional communications on key initiatives.
