Internal Control Officer
Adyen is looking for an Internal Control Officer with a focus on non-financial risks in our New York office. You will join the global Internal Control team, which contributes to powering Adyen’s sustainable growth. You are experienced in internal control and have the ability and eagerness to operate independently in a global environment.

We work as a team across cultures and time zones, and you will support the company in building a great business, preserving the company culture, and achieving its long-term goals by taking our risk management to the next level.
We don’t hide behind email. Instead, we pick up the phone. This is one of the values in our Adyen Formula, which is the foundation of our strong culture and an essential guiding principle for the way we work. We always ask why, are critical, don’t just tick the box and always look for improvement and automation. These are some of the values incorporated in the Adyen way of being in control, promoted by the Internal Control team globally.
