Worldline [Euronext: WLN] the European leader in payments and transactional services, is looking to recruit thousands talented people to continue its consolidation strategy, accelerate its technology transformation and provide its clients with the best payment offering around the globe.
Worldline recently presented its new strategic plan, detailing its ambition of being the premium global Paytech company at the heart of the European payment ecosystem. The two key axis of the plan are to accelerate the company’s geographical expansion as well as its investment in technology. In parallel, these past months have accelerated the digitization of commerce and changed forever how people choose to pay, live, and do business. Worldline is at the forefront of this rapid evolution and is committed to support the high demand from its clients and their adoption of new payments trends.
To successfully transform the company into this global paytech leader, Worldline will recruit more than 5,000 experts globally within the coming months. The Group is recruiting for both junior roles as well as for experienced senior placements. The new recruitments will be primarily tech operators, developers, engineers, application managers, architects, products managers, products owners and data analysts.
Providing the payments world with next gen technology
Worldline cooperates closely with many innovative partners to provide clients with next generation technology and engaging customers – for example: Worldline offers sustainable banking solutions across the European market and additional value to help clients combatting climate change with the fintech ecolytiq; Worldline is boosting the global adoption of ‘live shopping’ and ‘in-video checkout’ with Livescale, offering services to shoppers via livestreaming video; the Group allows payments with cryptocurrencies in Switzerland with Bitcoin Suisse; or it integrates Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fraud Protection into its digital commerce payments suite to futureproof online businesses against fraud.
Becoming the employer of choice in the payments industry
Worldline is a people business, and as the company grows and expands into new markets and new technologies, the attraction and retention of talent is fundamental to its success. Over the past decade, Worldline has placed a top priority on building an open and diverse culture that empowers its team to grow and thrive both professionally and personally. Its company purpose[1] (“raison d’être”), gathers the Worldline community around a long-term, coherent and shared vision. This purpose has allowed Worldline to successfully anchor its company values – Innovation, Excellence, Cooperation & Empowerment – and expected behaviours within Worldline.
Olivier Burger, Group Head of Human Resources at Worldline said: “Our people are the heart and soul of our company, and our aim is to establish Worldline as the employer of choice in the payment industry. As one of the world’s largest payment companies, we can offer an incredibly wide array of exciting projects and challenges. With comprehensive training and development programs, flexible hours and remote working opportunities, we truly empower all Worldliners to develop and grow their careers while maintaining a healthy work life balance. Furthermore, the fact that our technology impacts millions of people and business around the world every day, coupled with our genuine commitment to contribute to our customers’ growth, to bring trust and accompany societal change is something that is highly appreciated by our people today.”
Joining a European Top Employer and Great Place to Work
In 2022, Worldline was certified as Top employer in Europe and in 9 countries such as France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Netherlands, Austria, Poland, India, New Zealand and in 13 countries for the Great Place to Work certification (Austria, Poland, India, New Zealand, Chile, China, Taiwan, Czech Republic, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada). To better understand what motivates its employees and identify how to further improve the workplace, all ‘Worldliners’ are invited to participate in annual Employee Surveys.

As many as 9 in 10 were satisfied with the training & development they receive.
