Burger King Launches Hiring Drive for Up to 60,000 U.S. Workers

The campaign reflects traffic and sales gains from its Reclaim the Flame turnaround.

Overview

  • Burger King, which announced the push Thursday, plans to hire as many as 60,000 people across roughly 6,500 U.S. restaurants.
  • Openings span hourly crew through salaried managers, and listings are available at the company’s portal, careers.bk.com.
  • The company links the need to sales and traffic gains from its Reclaim the Flame plan, driven by remodels, new advertising, and operational upgrades.
  • With most stores run by franchisees, Burger King frames the campaign as a collective investment that depends on operator buy-in.
  • After buying Carrols in 2024, parent company RBI aims to refranchise about 1,005 acquired units to return to a roughly 99% franchised U.S. system.
