Job Details

BAT is evolving at pace into a global multi-category business. With products like VELO, VUSE and GLO we are on a mission to decrease the health impact of our industry

To achieve our ambition, we are looking for colleagues who are ready to Be The Change. Come, join us on this journey!

Looking for an analytical and proactive Compliance Analyst to strengthen our compliance monitoring function. This role goes beyond basic transaction reviews or KYC checks—it requires a strategic problem solver who can assess compliance risks, identify patterns, and challenge the status quo. As part of team, you will work with large data sets, assess risks across multiple compliance areas, and provide key insights to seniorpartners. You will need strong analytical skills, a structured approach to problem-solving, and the ability to think beyond surface-level checks.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Conduct in-depth compliance monitoring and reporting across multiple areas, including third-party Anti-Financial Crime risk assessment (deep dive into company structures and ownership), policy management (ensuring adherence and identifying potential compliance gaps), and Gifts & Entertainment (G&E) approvals (evaluating risks and reporting trends).
• Analyze and interpret data to identify key trends, anomalies, and areas of concern.
• Develop and present monitoring dashboards, highlighting risks and action points.
• Move beyond “checklist” compliance—question what you see, look deeper into issues, and think ahead.
• Assess not just what is happening, but why—consider the root causes of compliance gaps.
• Make evidence-based recommendations to improve controls.
• Engage directly with business units and compliance teams to ensure supervising outcomes drive significant action.
• Guide Markets on policy adherence, G&E processes, and Anti-Financial Crime risk assessments.
• Act as a Super User for compliance-related platforms (Coupa Risk Assess, G&E Tracker, Policy Management App, etc.).
• Provide first-line user support for compliance tools and give to user acceptance testing.
• Work with data interrogation tools (SQL, Power BI, Excel) to extract insights and improve compliance processes.

What are we looking for?

• Compliance monitoring and reporting experience (not just transactional KYC).
• Critical thinking and problem-solving mindset—ability to challenge data, question assumptions, and propose solutions.
• Data analysis and interrogation skills—proficiency in tools like SQL, Power BI, and sophisticated Excel (macros, VLOOKUP, pivot tables, etc.).
• Ability to present insights in a structured, engaging way—good communication and reporting skills.
• Business engagement skills—comfortable working with multiple partners across different cultures.
• Process improvement mindset—ability to spot inefficiencies and suggest innovative ways of working.
• Experience working in a digital, fast-paced environment.
• Certifications or coursework in compliance, risk assessment, or auditing.
• Training in business process improvement (Lean, Six Sigma, etc.).

What we offer you?

• We offer a market leading annual performance bonus (subject to eligibility)
• Our range of benefits varies by country and includes diverse health plans, initiatives for work-life balance, transportation support, and a flexible holiday plan with additional incentives
• Your journey with us isn't limited by boundaries; it's propelled by your aspirations. Join us at BAT and become a part of an environment that thrives on internal advancement, where your career progression isn't just a statement – it's a reality we're eager to build together. Seize the opportunity and own your development; your next chapter starts here.
• You'll have access to online learning platforms and personalized growth programs to nurture your leadership skills
• We prioritise continuous improvement within a transformative environment, preparing for ongoing changes
