And with one billion adult smokers around the world, we manufacture the cigarettes chosen by around one in eight of them. We take our business and our impact very seriously. We know the tobacco industry is a controversial one, and so it’s all the more important that we act responsibly, from the sourcing of tobacco leaf right through to how we market our products to adult consumers. Global to local Our business operates at a local, as well as global, level. We don’t own tobacco farms or directly employ farmers. More than 1,000 BAT leaf technicians worldwide support some 90,000 contracted farmers worldwide. We are a part of many local communities - both large and small - around the world, and in many countries we are the top employer and the company of choice for people employed at every stage of our supply chain. In 2015, we sold 663 billion cigarettes, made in 44 factories in 41 countries. View more View less

Key Responsibilities

  • Steer the regional IT and data analytics roadmap by aligning plans with global programs, local market priorities, and the DBS PMO governance framework.
  • Manage cross-functional delivery teams, ensuring timely, quality outcomes through clear communication with sponsors, stakeholders, and project teams.
  • Oversee budgets and cost tracking for data initiatives, including effort estimates, recharging, and benefit realisation, to keep projects within financial boundaries.
  • Conduct gap analyses on operational data requirements and enforce change control processes across systems and processes.
  • Drive discovery using both qualitative and quantitative methods to build data-driven business cases and strategic plans.
  • Coach developers and service providers on quality management, stakeholder handling, and adherence to established delivery frameworks.
  • Feed end-market requirements into the corporate data model and support the transformation of the data ecosystem and operating model.
  • Validate that all delivered use cases are user-centric, consumer-focused, and provide tangible commercial value, with complete and concise stakeholder communication.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Demonstrated experience managing data, analytics, or IT project portfolios in a regional or multi-market environment.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage business leaders, finance teams, end-market managers, and global function heads.
  • Solid understanding of Agile, DevSecOps, and delivery governance frameworks, including quality assurance and process compliance.
  • Experience with budget management, cost estimation, and benefit tracking for technology-driven initiatives.
  • Ability to translate qualitative and quantitative insights into actionable business strategies and data requirements.
  • Excellent communication and mentoring skills, comfortable guiding both internal teams and external service providers.
  • A relevant degree in business, information technology, data science, or a related field; equivalent professional experience is also accepted.
