Finance Support Specialist

As a Finance Support Specialist you will be an expert on Adyen’s finance and treasury platform.

With Adyen being a 24/7 business we operate throughout time zones using a follow the sun principle. The extensive knowledge of all the banking processes behind payments is the most valuable aspect both to our merchants as our internal teams.

  • Educate and advise our merchants’ financial teams on how to best gain value from our platform, products and features.
  • Receive and analyze merchant pain points and work closely with Adyen’s Finance Product and Development teams to improve or build new products to facilitate merchant’s operations.

 Who you are

  • You have strong analytical skills and are interested to know more about financial products for the payments industry and can easily get familiar with our internal accounting systems.
  • You have a strong commercial sensibility and are not afraid of being in direct contact with our merchants.
  • You make quick informed decisions under pressure and prioritize appropriately based on urgency, necessity and both internal and external requests.
  • You’ve had previous exposure to environments rich in uncertainty and you show a resulting track record of successfully dealing with ambiguity.
  • Advanced level of proficiency with MS Excel. 
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills in both English and French.
  • You ideally have a Finance or Economics educational background.
