Employment Counsel We are looking for a driven and enthusiastic Employment Counsel based in New York to join our global Legal team at Adyen.

Alongside your caseload, you will own the frameworks, templates, playbooks, and trainings that enable our HR colleagues to move quickly on routine matters and bring us in on what matters most. You will partner with our Employment Counsel in Amsterdam, our global Corporate Legal team, and HR Business Partners around the world.

Instruct and manage external counsel, holding firms to scope, budget and quality, and building a panel we can rely on across jurisdictions. Advise on risk, balancing legal exposure against a practical business outcome.

Partner with Employment Counsel in Amsterdam. Build the frameworks, playbooks, and legal review of the policies that matter most. Advise across the full generalist range, including wage and hou
