About the team

The bigger the ambition, the clearer the story needs to be. Adyen’s next chapter is an exciting one, and we’re looking for a Senior Corporate Communications Manager to help shape how we tell it. You’ll turn our strategy into stories that journalists, investors and customers understand, build relationships with global media, and act as a trusted adviser to our leadership.

This role comes with ownership and the freedom to make an impact. We expect you to identify what needs to happen, bring the right people together, and take it through to delivery. You’re comfortable using sound judgement to move work forward, and you know when to bring in others to make the outcome stronger.

You’ll join our Corporate Communications team in Amsterdam and work closely with colleagues across functions and regions. At Adyen, we work as a team: we share ideas early, challenge each other directly and contribute wherever we can make the biggest difference. International experience is essential. You understand how perspectives differ across markets and know how to build one global story that works locally.

What you’ll do

• Shape our corporate narrative. Translate our strategy into a clear, compelling story for journalists, investors and customers, and make every word count. You’ll help audiences understand our long-term ambition, business performance and strategic choices, and shape the press releases, statements, executive talking points, op-eds and Q&As that carry that story, so our communications are clear, consistent and right for the context.
• Lead global media engagement. Build relationships with business, financial and technology journalists across markets. Identify stories worth telling, set the proactive agenda, and handle incoming questions with speed and sound judgment.
• Own major announcements. Lead communications for financial results, executive appointments and other business milestones. Bring together colleagues across Finance, Legal, Investor Relations, PR, Product and regional teams to deliver clear, coordinated communications.
• Advise our leadership. Bring a clear point of view and challenge constructively. You’ll shape how our Board and executives are positioned externally, and prepare them for interviews, keynotes and difficult questions.
• Look around corners. Spot reputational risks early, understand how they play out across markets, and help the business respond with clarity and confidence.
• Partner closely with Internal Communications. Align external and employee communications so Adyen teams understand our direction and have the context behind major announcements.
• Partner closely with Investor Relations. Provide communications counsel around financial results, investor mileston
