Abstract: Any holomorphic Lipschitz map $f$, defined on the open unit ball $B_X$ of a complex Banach space $X$ and taking values in a complex Banach space $Y$, can be uniquely and canonically associated with a bounded linear operator $\widehat f : \mathcal G_0(B_X) \longrightarrow \mathcal G_0(Y)$ between the corresponding holomorphic Lipschitz-free spaces. The aim of this paper is to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the compactness and weak compactness of such operators. In particular, we obtain a general characterisation of the compactness of $\widehat f$ in terms of metric properties of its symbol $f$. We then focus on the case where the target space is a subspace of $\ell_p$, $1\leq p<\infty$. When the target space is $\ell_1$, we show that compactness and weak compactness of $\widehat f$ are both equivalent to $\widehat f$ not fixing a copy of $\ell_1$. Finally, when the target space is $\ell_p$ with $1
