About the role
- Together with the Head of Compliance, you’ll be the key point of contact for the business and all departments on regulatory and compliance matters across the company.
- Build and evolve our MaRisk-compliant Compliance Management System, shaping the compliance framework at lemon.markets.
- Conduct compliance risk analyses, run monitoring and testing, and ensure timely remediation and clear, audit-ready documentation.
- Develop and maintain internal compliance policies, procedures, and processes in line with German and European regulations (MaRisk, MaComp, WpIG, MiFID II).
- Track regulatory updates (e.g. BaFin, ESMA, EBA) and translate them into actionable internal processes, communication, and training.
- Partner with Product, Engineering, and Operations to embed compliance into products and processes from day one, and act as a regulatory sparring partner across the business.
- Use technology and automation to enhance monitoring, streamline documentation, and identify emerging risks.
Requirements
- You have gained relevant experience in compliance. You have at least 5 years of experience in these areas, ideally within an investment firm, FinTech, or another regulated financial institution.
- You are fluent in both German and English (written and spoken) and can communicate clearly across legal, technical, and business teams.
- You have a solid understanding of the German and European regulatory landscape, particularly WpIG, MaRisk, MaComp, and MiFID II.
- You enjoy translating regulation into action. You are compliance-minded yet solution-oriented – you understand regulatory risk but also how to enable the business to move forward safely and efficiently.
- You like building smart, scalable processes from scratch rather than waiting for the perfect system to arrive.
- You are curious about innovation and the role of technology and AI in compliance, whether it’s for automating monitoring tasks, detecting risks faster, or improving documentation.
- You thrive in fast-paced, highly regulated environments and are ready to take ownership from day one.
- You bring a structured, hands-on mindset, believe in feedback loops and continuous improvement, and enjoy working collaboratively with product, engineering, and legal stakeholders.
- You’re passionate about making investing simpler, more transparent, and more accessible across Europe, and you see compliance as a key enabler of that mission.
