Our values

 

British American Tobacco is an exciting place to be.

Our marketplace is fast moving and ever changing. There are responsibilities and challenges, but also great opportunities and to meet them we look for people who are adaptable and forward thinking. You’ll find a culture that is supportive of your ideas and will encourage you to achieve your goals.

Developing a winning organisation is a key part of our strategy to achieve our vision of leading the global tobacco industry.

While each of our Group companies must take account of local labour law and practice and their local political, economic and cultural context, they are all committed to these Employment Principles and are required to demonstrate that they are embedding them in the workplace.
