Rise to Lead: Bimbo Canada’s Leadership Training Program
We are actively recruiting Leadership Trainees for our September 2027-2030 cohort.
Rise to Lead is Bimbo Canada's flagship early-career leadership development program for talented, driven, and ambitious post-secondary graduates. For more than 20 years, the program has helped launch the careers of future leaders through meaningful experiences, broad business exposure, and opportunities to make a real impact from day one. Past graduates have gone on to become Operational and Commercial Leaders, Directors, and members of our Executive Team.
Through diverse one-year rotational assignments over three years, you’ll gain hands-on experience across multiple business functions, develop leadership skills, and build the foundation for a rewarding career with Bimbo Canada. This is not an internship; it's a full-time development experience designed to accelerate your growth and prepare you for future leadership opportunities.

Commercial (Marketing, Field Sales or Key Account Sales)
Develop your skills in selling, branding, customer strategy, and market execution while leveraging data and consumer insights to drive business results.
Supply Chain (Production, Engineering, Maintenance, Quality/Food Safety, Logistics, Planning or Sustainability)
Learn what it takes to lead teams, solve complex challenges, and drive continuous improvement in a fast-paced manufacturing and distribution environment.
Support Functions (Finance, Procurement or People/Corporate Affairs)
Build strong business acumen and analytical skills while contributing to initiatives that improve efficiency, optimize costs, and support profitable growth.
Do you have what it takes to be a Rise to Lead Trainee?
If so, GREAT! Read on…as there are a few more “MUST HAVES”:
The current annual starting salary is: $67,500, plus a discretionary bonus, annual vacation, pension plan participation and a comprehensive benefits package.
What are you waiting for? Apply today!
If you met our recruitment team on campus this fall or learned about this opportunity through your university career portal, please be sure to follow the additional application steps outlined in your campus materials.
We thank all applicants for their interest in exploring employment opportunities with Bimbo Canada; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted. Applicants may be subject to a background check and must meet the security criteria designated for the position.
