What You'll Be Doing

As a MiFID/MiCA Expert , you’ll act as a subject matter expert within our Investment firm and play a key role in ensuring our compliance with all applicable regulations, with a primary focus on MiFID II and MiCA across all investment offerings. You will be focusing on the following main areas of responsibility:

• Compliance and Risk Management Framework
  • Support the Head of the Compliance department in implementing and maintaining a robust Compliance Monitoring Programme to ensure adherence to all applicable regulations. Perform second‑line of defence controls, identifying risks associated with existing and new investment products, and providing high‑impact recommendations.
  • Lead "horizon scanning" to translate complex regulatory shifts into actionable business strategies.
  • Assist in maintaining a robust framework of policies.
  • Support future license extension processes and play a key role in defining our regulatory roadmap as we expand our activities.
• Act as a trusted advisor – Partner directly with the Authorised Management and Product teams to provide expert guidance on business impacts and product development.

Who We're Looking For

We need a problem‑solver who loves teamwork and gets things done. If you're curious and ready for real ownership, you'll fit in! Does this sound like you?

• Compliance experience – 3‑8 years in a regulated financial institution (e.g., bank, EMI, PI, MiFID investment firm, ManCo, or VASP), with hands‑on exposure to MiFID II and/or MiCA, in Luxembourg or Europe.
• Regulatory knowledge – a deep understanding of European and Luxembourgish regulatory frameworks applicable to investment firms (including MiFID II, MiCA, MiCAR), with the ability to translate MiFID II/MiCAR and local laws into operations; direct exposure to audits and regulatory inspections is a strong plus.
• AML/CFT proficiency – solid knowledge of financial crime prevention, including transaction monitoring and international financial sanctions.
• Tech‑forward thinking – a genuine interest in Fintech and virtual assets, with comfort operating in technology‑driven environments.
• Curiosity and autonomy – a natural drive to stay ahead of the curve as the digital asset world evolves. Highly organised and able to work independently, with a proactive "owner" mentality.
• Excellent communication and writing skills – fluency in English with the ability to translate complex regulatory requirements into clear, concise guidance for non‑compliance stakeholders.
