The ideal candidate takes ownership of our local financials for various APAC entities (with focus on India), and has a drive to understand these and is able to tie this back to where we’re heading as a Group globally.

Being part of the centralized Financial Controlling team in Amsterdam means you’ll be working in the (financial) engine room of a registered and listed financial institution; being part of a relatively small team means you’ll be (in)directly involved in a lot of very interesting topics that reach beyond the APAC borders.

• Preparation and submission of quarterly and annual direct taxes (tax compliance) with the tax team;
• Providing support during internal and external audits; liaising with bank managers and tax specialists;
• Assisting with intercompany foreign payments; liaising with external advisors to ensure compliance, preparation of invoices and ensure payments are made timely;
• Assisting in process improvement and systems enhancement to drive initiatives that help scale the organization.

Who you are

• Minimum of 5 years of experience in financial control/accounting; audit experience is a plus;
• Having experience working in accounting and tax teams exposed to the Indian market is a must have, CA is a plus;
• You are detail-oriented, with an analytical mindset
• Ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously; ability to prioritise
• Proactive in projects you take on, able to work independently but never afraid to ask for help;
• Able to think 2 steps ahead. We are looking for someone that can question the status quo, thinking critically and creatively to implement solutions to scale during Adyen’s rapid growth.
