Communications team

Adyen’s Communications team sets and executes Adyen’s global communications strategy. We set and execute Adyen’s global communications strategy – encompassing our global positioning and reputation- and stakeholder management. We always look for the most powerful way to convey our story, and there’s a lot of room for creativity in all our projects.

Our team consists of talented and driven storytellers, and together we shape how our company is perceived by a broad range of stakeholders. Spanning Adyen’s global press office, investor relations, internal- and corporate communications functions, we craft messaging on a daily basis for a wide-ranging audience for internal (e.g. the Adyen team)) and external audiences (investors, analysts, regulators, and reporters). Now, we are looking for a clever and creative Communications & Content Manager to join the team.

What you’ll do

• Crafting the materials that underpin the execution of our global communications strategy (e.g. half-yearly shareholder letters, annual reports, and our company newsroom), translating our business progress and deep financial insights into easy to understand messaging.
• Define the messaging that shapes how the capital markets, global media, and regulators perceive Adyen. To do so effectively, you will be working closely with Adyen’s Management Board and broader senior leadership team, Investor Relations, Financial Reporting, and Marketing functions.
• Write pieces that helps keep the global Adyen team inspired, engaged and informed - e.g. compelling content for our internal newsroom, executive communications, and preparing for key company-wide internal events such as our annual Adyen event and strategy days.

Who you are

• You have relevant, proven experience (3 - 5 years) as a writer of high-quality content, preferably as a journalist, writer, copywriting or communications role.
• You know how to condense the most complex topics into easy-to-understand content and can easily code switch based on the audience in question.
• You are a capable communicator – written and verbal native-level command of the English language and strong storytelling skills are key to succeeding in this role.
• You are comfortable interacting with stakeholders across all levels of seniority - and know what it means to be a trusted advisor to the business.
• You are a flexible & fast team player – you enjoy getting things done in a fast-paced environment and know how to prioritize, especially when meeting tight deadlines.
