In our industry it is essential to act responsibly.

At British American Tobacco, Corporate & Regulatory Affairs (CORA) works with all areas of the business, focussing on commercially relevant challenges to support growth.

Reputation protection and proactive regulation engagement are a fundamental for us: understanding the political and regulatory framework in which we operate; powerful industry alignment; and getting harm reduction on the policy agenda.

Engaging and responding to our stakeholders underpins our reputational and regulatory activity, including an acclaimed approach to our sustainability framework and reporting, as well as media engagement and digital communications.

Our stakeholders are many and varied, including governments, the media, scientists, consumers, business partners and local communities as well as BAT employees – CORA is at the centre of internal communications too.

There are a wide range of specialist and generalist roles in CORA. Our team works collaboratively, our people are courageous, energetic, imaginative and agile and understand the socio-economic and political environment.
