Senior Manager, Corporate Development & Deals, EMEA

About the Role

Restaurant Brands International (RBI) is hiring a Senior Manager to join our EMEA Finance & Corporate Development team, based in Zug. This role sits at the center of how we grow our four brands — Burger King & Popeyes — across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, working directly on the most strategically important transactions in the region.

• Lead end-to-end financial work streams on EMEA's largest and most complex transactions, including master franchise development agreements (MFDAs), restructurings, M&A, and capital markets‑adjacent work supporting franchisee partners.
• Build bespoke financial models from first principles—bottom‑up unit economics, full operating model build‑outs, returns waterfalls, covenant and capital structure analysis, scenario and sensitivity work—to support diligence, structuring and live negotiation.
• Negotiate directly with counter parties on commercial terms, development schedules, financial structures and ancillary arrangements; coordinate across legal, franchising, operations and brand teams to align on positioning.
• Develop investment memos, board materials and executive presentations for internal approval (up to CEO and Board of Directors) and external partner‑facing materials.
• Mentor and develop analysts and associates on the team—model architecture, deal process and stakeholder management.
• Partner with brand business unit leaders, regional CFOs and global Corporate Development on strategy, capital allocation and the EMEA growth roadmap.

• 5‑8 years of relevant experience, with a strong preference for candidates combining investment banking, private equity or transaction‑focused M&A advisory with some operating or corporate development exposure.
• Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or CFA welcome but not required.
• Exceptional financial modeling skills: ability to build a flexible, audit‑ready model from scratch on a complex transaction without relying on templates.
• Proven ability to lead work streams independently on live deals, manage external counter parties and drive a process to close.
• Strong commercial instincts and judgment—knows when to dig deeper, when to elevate and when to move.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable presenting to senior executives and external counter parties.
• Fluent in English.

Benefits focused on physical, mental and financial wellness. Includes a comprehensive global paid parental leave program, free telemedicine and mental wellness support.
