Senior Payment Partnerships Manager

Adyen is seeking a dynamic Senior Payment Partnerships Manager to drive our strategy and strengthen our relationships with payment partners (e.g., schemes, banks, etc.) in Mexico and Brazil, while staying aligned with regional and global strategic priorities.

In this position, you will be accountable for managing a portfolio of Adyen’s most strategic payment partnerships, while also driving the identification and development of new ones.

• Manage all aspects of the partnership, including prioritizing key focus areas, evaluating new initiatives, and ongoing partner management (end to end partner perspective).
• Build close relationships with partners such as credit card networks, banks, local connections (e.g., Prosa, etc.), and Local Payment Methods (LPM's).
• Collaborate with various technical teams to achieve high performance levels in critical payment processes on behalf of our merchants.
• Provide expertise in discussions about global payment trends, rules, and regulations with internal stakeholders.
• Elevate Adyen's influence and positioning by facilitating co‑product development, co‑marketing initiatives, and business development discussions.
• Coordinate with strategic merchants to drive growth and awareness across our payment portfolio.
