The opportunity
Adyen provides payments, data, and financial products in a single solution for customers like Meta, Uber, H&M, and Microsoft - making us the financial technology platform of choice. At Adyen, everything we do is engineered for ambition.
What you'll do
Own the roadmap (certain processes) to an autonomous close: define the steps from today's close towards minimal human involvement, set the milestones and measures of success, and deliver them;
Design and deliver the change with FinOps and the Financial Data Teams (FDT),: using automation and AI tooling to take manual work out of core accounting processes;
Run the change end to end (certain processes): project and programme management, stakeholder alignment and change management, so that new ways of working are adopted across FinOps, regional Controllers and GL accountants;
Build continuous insight on the areas that matter most for control: define the monitoring and validation checks and make every figure traceable and rerunnable;
Keep the control environment intact while we automate: accounting data stays accurate, valid and complete, with clear ownership, segregation of duties and an audit trail;
Partner with Tax and FinOps teams to maintain a scalable intercompany framework and review reconciliations;
What they're looking for
- Own the monthly consolidated P&L one pager (Net Revenue and EBITDA),: explaining variances between actuals and the set expectation with clear business context and building the validation tools needed to produce it;
- Review and approve balance sheet reconciliations;
- Own month-end close activities, coordination and setting of consolidated and regional materiality thresholds;
- Minimum of 5+ years experience (max 10 years) in financial control,: accounting, and external audit (Big 4 experience is a strong plus);
