This is Adyen

Adyen provides payments, data, and financial products in a single solution for customers like Meta, Uber, H&M, and Microsoft - making us the financial technology platform of choice. At Adyen, everything we do is engineered for ambition.

For our teams, we create an environment with opportunities for our people to succeed, backed by the culture and support to ensure they are enabled to truly own their careers. We are motivated individuals who tackle unique technical challenges at scale and solve them as a team. Together, we deliver innovative and ethical solutions that help businesses achieve their ambitions faster.

Head of HR Business Partnering - EMEA

We’re looking for a Head of HR Business Partnering to support our EMEA region and manage a team of HR Business Partners. As part of our People Leadership Team, you will be the connection point between all functions within the People organization, representing the EMEA region. You’ll work closely with our global HR team and EMEA Leadership Team to enhance hiring, learning, compensation and innovation initiatives in these regions.

When confronted with dilemmas and challenges, we work with principles rooted in our Formula, not with stagnant, inflexible policies. We align globally, but take ownership regionally. This role requires you to effortlessly navigate between responsibilities related to long term strategic plans, team management, global HR initiatives, business partnering, and day-to-day solutions to unique challenges. Our business and teams are growing rapidly and the role of HR is to enable scaling for the future while keeping our unique culture that brought us to where we are today.

You create impact by:

  • Setting a direction for your team that aligns with the needs of our stakeholders and the long-term strategy of our business
  • Enabling and developing a growing team of HR Business Partners in EMEA
  • Being the key sparring partner for the EMEA Leadership team on things related to people management and strategy
  • Driving a culture of using people data to inform and validate decision making
  • Collaborating with a global, cross-functional team of subject-matter experts in HR (recruitment, compensation and benefits, learning and development, HR technology, and operations) to ensure we retain and grow our top talents
  • Acting as an ambassador for the Adyen Formula, guiding leaders to apply our core values in their day-to-day decisions
  • Making things simpler rather than more complicated

Who you are

  • You have at least 7 years of experience working with managers and leaders at all levels, in a people partnering role at a fast-paced company
  • You have 5+ years of leadership experience and foster an environment of autonomy and accountability
  • You have the ability and experience to develop world-class HR Business Partners
  • You can connect the dots with speed and spot opportunities looking forward
  • You have a strong sense of self, build trust quickly, and aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo with leaders
  • You understand organizational dynamics, know what healthy, motivated, and growing teams look like, and can give guidance on what to do to make them even better
  • You have the ability to analyze data on the bigger picture of the organization and act on the outcomes
  • You’re well versed in international labor law, and know how to get answers for the things you don’t know
  • You are comfortable with ambiguity and can pull relevant details out of complex situations to make sound decisions - and you know when to ask for help
  • You understand the benefits of building a diverse and inclusive workforce on a global scale
  • You have strong business acumen

Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion commitments

Our unique approach is a product of our diverse perspectives. This diversity of backgrounds and cultures is essential in helping us maintain our momentum. Our business and technical challenges are unique, and we need as many different voices as possible to join us in solving them - voices like yours. No matter who you are or where you’re from, we welcome you to be your true self at Adyen.

Studies show that women and members of underrepresented communities apply for jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Does this sound like you? If so, Adyen encourages you to reconsider and apply. We look forward to your application!

What’s next?

Ensuring a smooth and enjoyable candidate experience is critical for us. We aim to get back to you regarding your application within 5 business days. Our interview process tends to take about 4 weeks to complete, but may fluctuate depending on the role. Learn more about our hiring process here. Don’t be afraid to let us know if you need more flexibility.

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