In this role you will be the voice of the customer, ensuring they can smoothly and dynamically offer the best payment methods for their markets. This role is highly collaborative and central, acting as an intersection point for multiple technical and commercial teams. The role requires operating effectively across the entire organization, dealing with cross-solution dependencies.

You will be responsible for the health and growth of a core product(s) within our EMEA payments suite. Define (sub)regional strategy: Own the vision and end-to-end roadmap for your product area.

You’ll provide the business context and clarity needed to turn complex technical challenges into seamless merchant experiences.

Shape the industry: Don't just manage a product; actively contribute to the evolution of the payments landscape by identifying the next big shift in how European consumers pay. Who you are Product Management : You bring 3+ years of experience in Product Management, ideally within the payments or fintech space. You excel at identifying critical merchant pain points and unlocking regional market opportunities - translating them into a clear, long-term strategy for our EMEA payments offering. You are a data-driven decision-maker, comfortable diving into complex datasets to validate hypotheses, measure product success, and inform your roadmap. You are skilled in prioritization, making high-stakes calls to ensure your team focuses on the products that drive the most value for our merchants. Payment Passionate : You have a curiosity for how money moves and a passion for the diverse EMEA payment landscape. Beyond understanding transaction flows, you understand the shifting regulatory and industry dynamics - from the nuances of PSD3/PSR3 to the rise of Open Banking and the Digital Euro. You understand that for a merchant to win in EMEA, it’s not just about accepting cards; it’s about offering a mix of local payment methods, from iDEAL and Bancontact to Bizum and beyond, to meet customers exactly where they are. You don’t just want to follow these trends - you are excited to leverage Adyen’s position as a market leader to actively shape the future of the European payment industry. Commercial Mindset : You are a strategic partner to our sales- and account management teams.
