Financial Data Analyst, Merchant Finance and Treasury

Adyen is looking for a Financial Data Analyst to join the Merchant Finance and Treasury team in Amsterdam. As Merchant Finance & Treasury we are the financial backbone of Adyen; optimizing and automating financial processes for scale, mitigating risks, and enabling growth through customer-centricity, operational excellence, innovation and integrity.

The ideal candidate is someone who is able to approach and understand complex problems in a structured manner, being able to translate financial domain knowledge into actionable data projects and business intelligence dashboards.

In this role, you will be responsible for providing insights and building dashboards that empower the team's decision-making process. You will support the Treasury team in managing Adyen’s liquidity and improve Cash Management operations. Also, you will play a key role in assisting the Reconciliation and Payouts teams to identify automation opportunities for Adyen's continued growth. This position requires a deep understanding of our business operations and financial products. You will own a sub business domain and take the lead together with the specialist in that domain to come up with solutions to a complex problem.

What you’ll do

• Data Analysis: determine the necessary data required to solve a wide variety of business problems, draw conclusions and recommendations for optimizations and automation.
• Delivery of Business Insights: build dashboards and reports to share findings, measure impact, and inform the areas in our operations that can be further optimized. Provide insights into our key financial and operational processes that influence decision making and help Adyens scale further.
• Translate & Influence: clearly communicate complex topics to both technical and non-technical audiences, showcasing your impact across our global teams.
• Cross-team collaboration: ensure alignment and adoption between key stakeholders like Data Engineering and Finance teams.
• Process improvement: monitor the effectiveness of implemented controls, contribute to process improvement, and scale our fraud prevention framework.

Who you are

• You have 2-4 years of professional experience as a Data Analyst, preferably in a fast-paced, product-focused environment.
• You are proficient in Python and SQL and have strong expertise with BI tools like Looker. Any previous experience with big data tooling (i.e. PySpark) is a plus.
• You are able to structure projects and prioritize tasks and solutions based on impact and effort across several cross-functional teams.
• You are an excellent communicator in English, able to lead discussions effectively with both technical and nontechnical audiences.
• You are hands-on and curious about the details of our banking and payments infrastructure.

This role is based out of our Amsterdam office. We are an office-first company and value in-person collaboration; we do not offer remote-only roles.
