M&A Executive @ BAT

About

A finance professional with experience across M&A, commercial finance, and strategic analysis, currently working as an M&A Executive at one of the world’s leading tobacco manufacturing companies. In my current role, I support global M&A activity across the full deal lifecycle, including market scanning, target assessment, valuation, due diligence, and transaction execution. My work focuses on analyzing internal and external data, building valuation and financial models, and supporting investment decisions through clear, insight-driven materials for senior leadership and the Board. Prior to moving into M&A, I spent several years in Commercial Finance at BAT, where I partnered closely with marketing, sales, and strategy teams to drive performance across complex, competitive markets. I played a key role in budgeting, forecasting, performance management, and profitability analysis, supporting pricing, promotions, and revenue growth initiatives. This role sharpened my ability to translate commercial strategy into financial outcomes and gave me strong exposure to Revenue Growth Management (RGM), margin optimization, and data-led decision-making at scale. Earlier in my career, I worked as a Senior Audit & Tax Associate at PwC Pakistan, developing a strong foundation in financial reporting, controls, and regulatory compliance, and later held a finance role within South Asia’s largest fertilizer manufacturing company. Outside of work, I’m a keen fitness enthusiast, huge football fan, a travel buff and animal lover. Always open to connecting and exchanging ideas.
