And be in with a chance of securing a place on our Global Graduate Programme – your foot in the door at our thriving business.

Many of us started our BAT career as interns

Nine years ago I was starting my internship in BAT. I look back to this journey with a lot of pride and feeling thankful for all the development opportunities I have experienced so far. From the Internship Programme to the Global Graduate Programme and now as a manager with a career filled with international experiences, multifunctional projects and incredible team mates.

I was told a BAT Internship could be a start to a truly amazing career in a thriving global company. That was exactly what happened. It’s been just over a year since I joined as an intern, and I have already embarked on another exciting journey as a Global Graduate.

It’s amazing how time just flies when you’re having fun. Ten years have gone by since I joined BAT as an intern. I’ve had seven roles in three countries since then. And today I’m working on global projects.

The BAT internship is the perfect springboard for anyone starting their career, It provided me with the opportunity to develop my skills, extend my network and has provided me with international career progression. Since joining in 2018, I have worked with regional teams in the London Global HQ and am now a working in the Global Travel Retail team based in Hong Kong.

BAT’s Internship and Global Graduate Programmes are the best opportunity to develop your leadership skills and get full understanding of the business dynamics at all levels. Since I joined in 2017 back in Colombia, I’ve followed an international career holding positions in London HQ, North and Western European Area and lately, in the UK&I end market. At each stage I’ve built strong functional and people capabilities while creating a network of colleagues and friends that have made the journey even more thrilling.
