(Senior) Compliance Manager (m/f/x)

About us

What makes us special?
At UVC Partners, we’re driven by a deep passion for entrepreneurship and its power to positively shape
society. Environmental and social responsibility are core to our DNA – we hold ourselves to the highest
standards in everything we do. As a firm, we continuously reinvent ourselves to stay ahead and best
serve our portfolio and investors. We believe in ownership over hierarchy and foster a culture built on
collaboration, curiosity, and personal engagement. And while we’re serious about our mission, we also
genuinely enjoy working together and building lasting relationships along the way.
As part of this evolution, we are taking the step to full authorization as a Kapitalverwaltungsgesellschaft
(KVG) under the German Investment Code (KAGB) and are building out our internal control functions
accordingly.

Your mission

• Own the operational build-out of our compliance function as we move to full BaFin authorization as
  an AIFM – you drive it day to day, while management provides oversight.
• Development and implementation of our compliance policies and handbooks and design of the
  underlying processes from the ground up (e.g. compliance, conflicts of interest, personal account
  dealing, remuneration, complaints, whistleblowing) in collaboration with service providers and
  external advisor.
• Contribute to the authorization dossier – business plan under § 22 KAGB, organizational and
  process documentation – together with our external advisor and the BaFin filing.
• Coordinate our outsourced functions (AML, internal audit, etc.) and ensure clean interfaces and
  controls.
• After licensing, run and evolve the permanent compliance function (KAMaRisk): monitor regulatory
  change (KAGB, AIFMD, DORA, SFDR/ESG), advise teams, deliver trainings, and report to
  management and the supervisory board.

Your profile

• Several years of experience in a compliance function – or closely related (legal, AML, regulatory,
  audit) – at an AIFM, asset manager, bank, securities institution, or a relevant advisory or law firm,
  ideally experience with AIFMs holding a full BaFin authorization.
• A proven ability to draft audit-proof policies, handbooks, and processes yourself – not just review
  them.
• A structured, self-driven working style: you move a complex project forward operationally without
  close supervision.
• Fluent German and good English, both written and spoken.
• Personal integrity and reliability.
• Nice to have: experience with illiquid asset classes (VC/PE) and exposure to DORA/ICT,
  SFDR/ESG, outsourcing (§ 36 KAGB), or AML (GwG).

What we offer

• Team and Working Environment – Be part of one of Europe’s most experienced and successful
  B2B-focused venture capital firms, with direct access to management and short decision paths.
• Impact and Ownership – Build the compliance function of an AIFM from the ground up – a rare,
  highly visible mandate with lasting impact on how we operate.
• Development – Deepen your regulatory expertise across the full breadth of an AIFM compliance,
  from licensing to steady-state operations.
• Networking – Gain access to the UnternehmerTUM ecosystem, which includes thousands of
  talents, hundreds of startups, and over 150 corporate partners.
• Compensation – An attractive salary, a permanent full-time position, hybrid working, and a
  modern office in Munich.

Diversity is important to us

Diversity enriches our team. We explicitly encourage all qualified individuals to apply, regardless of gender, social and ethnic background, sexual orientation, religion, age, or disability.
