Head of Compliance (w/m/x/d)
Join the ride!
We’re looking for a hands-on, execution-driven Head of Compliance to take full ownership of all compliance-related matters at MILES - from regulatory alignment and internal policies to risk visibility and governance structures.
A foundational Compliance Management System and policy framework are already in place. Your task is to review, refine, and embed these across the company, making compliance an integrated part of how we operate.
You bring experience, structure, and a clear plan. You know how to adapt that plan to a dynamic, fast-moving environment. You work independently, drive implementation with focus and discipline, and promote a culture of compliance and documentation that supports responsible growth across all teams.
Your Responsibility
Operationalize Compliance Across the Organization
Lead the implementation and further development of the Compliance Management System across functions
Translate legal and regulatory requirements into actionable, operational guidance for business teams
Act as the company-wide point of contact for compliance-related questions, escalations, and implementation support
Promote a culture of compliance and documentation by fostering clarity, accountability, and consistency across the organization
Prepare and maintain compliance documentation for internal audits, leadership reporting, and external assessments
Take end-to-end ownership of the company-wide compliance policy framework, including drafting, review, rollout, communication, training, and ongoing governance to ensure policies are understood, applied, and embedded across all teams
Build and Strengthen Internal Controls
Define and implement internal controls across key business processes and compliance-relevant workflows
Ensure appropriate approval structures, traceability, and segregation of duties in line with audit requirements
Identify opportunities to streamline or automate control activities while maintaining governance quality
Strengthen audit readiness and support the long-term development of a sustainable internal control environment
Establish and Embed Risk Transparency
Introduce a structured and proportionate approach to enterprise risk aligned with MILES’ current exposure and maturity
Coordinate regular risk identification and review cycles to build company-wide risk awareness and ownership
Maintain risk documentation and follow-through processes for mitigation, escalation, and reporting
Shape a pragmatic, decision-oriented risk view that supports transparency and responsible growth
Your Experience
- At least 5–7 years of hands-on experience in compliance, risk, audit or internal controls
- Legal qualification (e.g. Volljurist:in) preferred; prior in-house experience is a strong plus
- Proven ability to design and implement compliance frameworks, policies, internal controls, and whistleblowing systems in real-world business environments
- Strong knowledge of German and EU regulatory requirements, especially where public law and operational exposure intersect
- Familiarity with governance and assurance frameworks such as ISO 37301 or IDW PS 980/951
- Experience introducing or supporting a proportionate approach to enterprise risk
- Comfortable operating independently, driving structure and accountability across all functions
- Skilled in translating regulatory requirements into operational guidance, scalable processes and clear documentation
- Strong communicator with excellent documentation and cross-functional stakeholder engagement skills
- Fluent in German and English
At MILES, we are convinced that compliance and governance help a company grow responsibly. If you're motivated by building systems that scale, creating clarity in complexity, and making a real impact across the organization, you’ll find this role both challenging and rewarding.
