Questrade Future Leaders Internship Program (QFLIP) - Strategy & Corporate Development Intern

We’re looking for our future leaders. Could it be you? At Questrade Financial Group (QFG), we are everything a traditional financial institution is not. You will be constantly moving forward, bringing the future of fintech into existence, as part of a collaborative team that cares deeply about helping each other and driving our mission of helping our customers become much more financially successful and secure. We give Canadians a real alternative to traditional banks and brokerages: investing, banking, mortgages, and real estate, built to help millions of Canadians take control of their own money.

We are looking for ambitious and driven individuals interested in exploring a career in strategy and product management, who have an inclination for data-driven problem solving and a bias for action. Innovation is at the heart of Questrade’s success, and our future leaders will be highly entrepreneurial, comfortable with ambiguity and complexity to challenge the status quo, and able to execute their vision with high attention to detail.

A Bit About QFLIP: The Questrade Future Leaders Internship Program (QFLIP) is a 14-week internship running from May to August 2027, open to students currently in their 3rd or 4th year of undergrad.

As a Strategy intern, you will join our Strategy and Corporate Development (M&A) team, which decides where Questrade plays and how it wins: identifying and incubating new businesses, shaping enterprise and cross-business strategy, and evaluating the opportunities, investments, and partnerships that help Canadians improve their financial lives. This team works closely with leadership across Questrade's businesses and charts the enterprise's future direction.

What’s in it for you? During your 14 weeks with our Strategy team, you will experience:

• Exclusive mentorship: Receive 1:1 mentorship and coaching to gain invaluable insights from experienced leaders.
• Meaningful projects: Deliver tangible and impactful work across a range of strategic initiatives, including Enterprise Strategy and Corporate Development.
• Cross-functional exposure: Partner with business functions across product, marketing, finance, operations, and others to bring the right evidence and recommendations to leadership.
• Build relationships: Connect with a tight-knit cohort of interns through social events and collaborative projects.
• Unmatched experience: Develop an understanding of the business and participate in key strategic decision-making to generate value and shape strategic priorities across the business.

In this role, responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Thinking through how new products, services, and / or cross-business bundles could drive profitable growth of Questrade and its businesses.
• Building business models and analyses (e.g., market sizing, pricing, P&L) to pressure-test opportunities and support prudent, data-driven decision-making.
• Benchmarking Questrade’s performance against key competitors.
• Taking existing ways of working, processes, and procedures and leveling them up with AI.
• Partnering with business functions across product, marketing, finance, operations, and others to bring the right evidence and recommendations to leadership.
• Evaluating potential investments, partnerships, and ancillary revenue streams that align with Questrade's strategic direction.

Previous interns have worked on high-impact projects like evaluating acquisition opportunities, investigating new lines of business (Pre-IPO, Questrade Plus), and developing pricing models for new and existing products (Options Pricing, Equities Pricing).

So are YOU our next QFLIP Member? You are if you…

• Are currently in your 3rd or 4th year of an undergraduate program (available May to August 2027).
• Have experience in financial services or can bring learnings from other fast-paced, customer-centric, and digital-forward industries.
• Have experience or an interest in Business / corporate strategy, Management consulting, Strategy & operations, Business analysis / business operations, Business modelling (financial / commercial), Data analysis, Go-to-market strategy, Market / competitive research, or Pricing / monetization strategy.
• Are a structured, analytical thinker who can break down ambiguous problems and turn analysis into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Have business acumen with a focus on accountability, decision-making, delivering results, networking, innovation, agility, and conflict management.
• Are curious about how businesses grow and win, energized by working across functions to bring evidence and recommendations to leadership, and are a self-starter with a history of improving business practices.
• Have used AI tooling for both personal productivity and development projects.

Note: Strong data skills are a real plus in Strategy. If you have hands-on experience with SQL, Power BI, or Python, we strongly encourage you to apply. And if you don't, that's okay—it's not a requirement, and we'll teach you what you need along the way.
