Adyen NextGen

Adyen was built on fresh ideas and we need a constant stream of them to maintain our momentum. NextGen is our way of supporting students who are ready to kickstart their careers and sample what life at Adyen is like.

What is Adyen NextGen?

Adyen NextGen gives students in the final phase of their education cycle a chance to sample life at Adyen. Pick an area you’d like to work in, be it sales, product, design, or development, and start creating your own path. We won’t hold your hand but we will be there to guide and support you.

Life as NextGen

We’re looking for critical thinkers, self-starters, and those who aren’t afraid to challenge convention.

Life after NextGen

You’ll be learning from some of the brightest minds in tech and we’d like you to stick around afterwards.

Preslava, Monitoring

“Apart from the innovative, tech-driven, dynamic climate, what I love most about Adyen is the people I get to work with. They’re smart, driven, enthusiastic, and willing to take themselves and Adyen to the next level over and over again. There are no limits to what you can achieve, no boundaries to where you can go, and no barriers to who you can become. In such an environment you can only thrive.”

Rochus, Technical Support

“At the time I joined Adyen I was still writing my master Thesis. Adyen gave me the opportunity to finish my study and work part-time as NextGen. In this way I was able to experience what it's like to work for Adyen and also develop myself as a potential new full-time employee. What positively surprised me is the responsibility you immediately get to participate in one of the streams. My favourite thing about Adyen are the variety of challenges, the autonomy in my work and the company culture.”

Alessia, Underwriting

“I started my Adyen journey almost 2 years ago, in Operational Support. Moving to Underwriting's NextGen offered me the possibility to learn more about the onboarding and merchant operations and I feel like I am constantly learning and improving. The most important role of an Underwriting NextGen is to optimize the screening processes for our merchants and being part of the team makes me grow both profesionally and personally, as we work closely together and always learn from each other.”

Jord, POS

“Adyen's NextGen gave me the opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment where I had great responsibility from day one. I had the possibility to lead my own projects and work closely with different teams within the company. I like that Adyen includes people from different disciplines and different backgrounds, which sharpens ideas and makes sure problems are tackled from all angles”
