About The Position

At Molson Coors, we tackle big challenges and defy the status quo. With a proud legacy of excellence, an incredible portfolio of beer, seltzers, spirits, and non-alcohol brands, and a bold vision for our future... we’re on the path to transforming the beverage industry. That requires remarkable individuals who are curious, tenacious, and never afraid to fail forward.
We seek, value and respect everyone’s unique perspectives and experiences knowing that we are stronger together. We collaborate as a team and celebrate each other’s successes.
Here’s to crafting careers and creating new legacies.
Molson Coors is looking to hire two 1Ls (Class of 2028) for a 2026 summer internship in our Chicago, Illinois office. Candidates should be highly motivated law students and must be in their first year of law school. 2nd and 3rd Year law students will not be considered. Candidates should also be committed to improving access to the legal profession, eager to learn and able to work both independently and with our corporate attorneys and legal analysts.
This summer legal internship will expose you to many aspects of our business, provide first-hand experience of how an in-house legal department operates, and allow you to put into practice the legal research, writing and analytical skills you’ve learned during your first year of law school. In-house practice is not geared toward writing lengthy research memos, but as a summer legal intern you will have plenty of opportunities to express your analysis and opinions in writing and further develop your research skills. Work assignments vary each year, but they typically include researching alcohol beverage, advertising, IP, sales & regulatory, and employment law issues, reviewing and revising contracts, and analyzing corporate and general liability issues.
Our legal department confronts a wide variety of legal issues every day including advertising/marketing, trademark, litigation, corporate matters, M&A, employment, contracts, and regulatory. The Americas Legal team is comprised of legal professionals who will provide the interns with learning opportunities and extensive exposure to our business and the variety of legal subjects with which we regularly engage. Legal interns can expect to regularly engage with our Chicago attorneys as well as other members of our legal team.
