Internal Control Specialist 

Adyen is looking for an Internal Control Specialist who focuses on financial risk in our Amsterdam office. You will join the global Internal Control team, which contributes to powering Adyen’s sustainable growth. You have base-level knowledge of internal control and the ability and eagerness to operate independently in a global environment.

You will mainly focus on assessing and strengthening Adyen’s global financial and reporting processes and controls to meet internal and external expectations and to enable controlled growth. We work as a team across cultures and time zones, and you will support the company in building a great business, preserving the company culture, and achieving its long-term goals by taking our risk management to the next level.

We don’t hide behind email. Instead, we pick up the phone. This is one of the values in our Adyen Formula, which is the foundation of our strong culture and an essential guiding principle for how we work. We always ask why, are critical, don’t just tick the box, and always look for improvement and automation. These are some of the values incorporated in the Adyen way of being in control, promoted by the Internal Control team globally.

What you’ll do:

  • Strengthen the internal control framework and support management with internal control matters.
  • Evaluate Adyen’s financial and reporting processes and controls to spot opportunities for improvement.
  • Perform independent review and testing of controls.
  • Identify and evaluate control deficiencies.
  • Manage requests from auditors to ensure successful audit cycles (e.g., SOC1/SOC2 audits).
  • Create a network and be an advisor for the business.
  • Collaborate with your Internal Control team peers to manage the global internal control framework and contribute to various projects.

Who you are:

  • Relevant working experience (3+ years) within an external audit, risk management, or internal control function. 
  • Able to apply base-level knowledge of designing and testing internal controls.
  • Critical thinking skills and eagerness to solve challenges.
  • Eagerness to work in an innovative technology company within the financial sector.
  • You thrive in an unstructured, fast-paced environment, challenging the status quo and a ‘can-do’ mentality.
  • Good communication and stakeholder management skills.

Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion commitments 

Our unique approach is a product of our diverse perspectives. This diversity of backgrounds and cultures is essential in helping us maintain our momentum. Our business and technical challenges are unique, and we need as many different voices as possible to join us in solving them - voices like yours. No matter who you are or where you’re from, we welcome you to be your true self at Adyen. 

Studies show that women and members of underrepresented communities apply for jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Does this sound like you? If so, Adyen encourages you to reconsider and apply. We look forward to your application!

What’s next?

Ensuring a smooth and enjoyable candidate experience is critical for us. We aim to get back to you regarding your application within 5 business days. Our interview process tends to take about 4 weeks to complete, but may fluctuate depending on the role. Learn more about our hiring process here. Don’t be afraid to let us know if you need more flexibility.

This role is based out of our Amsterdam office. We are an office-first company and value in-person collaboration; we do not offer remote-only roles.
