You’ll uncover and drive new business opportunities, establish lasting relationships with key decision-makers, and contribute to Adyen’s long-term strategy in both embedded payments and finance.

  • Own the full sales cycle: Drive new business from lead generation to deal closure, focusing on SaaS platforms, marketplaces, and other B2B2C ecosystems.
  • Strategic storytelling: Develop compelling narratives to showcase how Adyen’s solutions can create competitive advantages for platforms.
  • Build executive relationships: Engage and maintain strong partnerships with C-level and senior decision-makers across Product, Engineering, and Finance.
  • Consultative approach: Lead complex, multi-stakeholder sales processes by understanding clients’ technical, operational, financial, and strategic goals.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally: Work closely with Implementation, Account Management, and Product teams around the globe to ensure successful platform and sub-merchant onboarding with an eye on long-term growth.
  • Shape strategy: Partner with internal stakeholders to refine Adyen’s go-to-market approach for Platforms, driving innovation and differentiation in embedded finance and financial services.

  • Relationship Builder: Proven ability to engage C-level executives, navigate complex organizations, and orchestrate executive alignment during the sales process. Effective communicator with an ability to drive consensus.
  • Technical Acumen: Comfortable discussing technical solutions and mapping both transaction flows and user journeys. Eagerness to collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Strategy teams to address client needs.
  • Strategic Negotiator: Skilled at leading bespoke commercial negotiations and crafting tailored value propositions to maximize mutual success. Adept at selling on value rather than leading with price.
  • Collaborative & Driven: A team player who thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment and operates with a no-ego approach to winning as a team.
  • Adaptable: Ability to navigate ambiguity and adjust to dynamic market conditions while keeping the focus on delivering results.

  • Career growth: Join a company committed to your personal and professional development, with opportunities to grow your expertise in embedded payments and financial services while maintaining autonomy to chart your own course.
