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.

About the Role

We are looking for a Project Operations Manager specializing in Reporting & Reconciliation to join our Professional Services team in São Paulo. You will be the technical-financial expert for our biggest merchants, ensuring they can successfully reconcile their payments and optimize Adyen’s reporting tools.

This is a new role, where you will have the opportunity to create the playbook needed that bridges the gap between delivery and accounting. In this hands-on role you will be a  data-driven problem solver who enjoys helping merchant finance teams succeed by managing internal and external partners. You will be on the front lines with our largest merchants, ensuring they have what is needed to successfully reconcile their data and you will be the internal champion to help build this process in a scalable way.  

What You’ll Do

Project Execution & Financial Onboarding

• Merchant Onboarding: Manage the end-to-end delivery of reporting setups, ensuring merchants are ready for day-one reconciliation.
• Technical Advisory: Guide merchants on mapping Adyen data to their General Ledgers and ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle).
• Local Expertise: Configure submerchant payout logic, settlement timing, fees, receivables (antecipação), and Brazil-specific tax reporting.

Strategic Support & Scaling

• Technical Escalation: Act as the lead problem-solver for complex reconciliation discrepancies and tough reporting questions from focus accounts.
• Product Advocacy: Partner with global Product teams to fix systemic issues and improve reporting tools based on merchant feedback.
• Enablement: Create scalable guides and templates to automate common tasks. Train internal teams to better understand the financial mechanics of our platform.

Who You Are

• Language: You have C1 level proficiency in both English and Portuguese. This is a must for this position. 
• Finance Background: 5+ years in financial reporting, reconciliation, or payments. You are comfortable with GLs, bank statements, and complex data structures.
• Project Delivery: Experience managing complex technical projects or rollouts with multiple stakeholders.
• Analytical: Strong logical skills to find root causes in large datasets. You take ownership of a problem until it’s fully resolved.
• Customer-Friendly: Able to explain dense financial logic simply and professionally.
• Nice to have: Experience in the payments industry is a plus, but your analytical drive and financial rigor are the priority.
