Working Student Compliance (f/m/x)

You’ll experience the unique combination of operating at the crossroads of technology and regulation while engaging with critical compliance responsibilities. Working alongside experts in compliance, anti-money laundering, risk, and operations, you’ll deepen your understanding of regulatory frameworks and operational strategies while developing your skills in process optimisation and governance. As part of the dwpbank Group, you will also gain exposure to compliance at institutional scale, and have the opportunity to take ownership of impactful projects and grow professionally in a rapidly evolving industry.

In this role you will:

• Support the Compliance & AFC Function across its full range of daily operations, taking ownership of tasks and stepping in where the team needs you most.
• Monitor and contribute to the continuous improvement of compliance processes across functions, ensuring consistency with applicable regulatory requirements.
• Prepare and organise documentation for internal and external audits, including group-level reviews within the dwpbank Group.
• Conduct regulatory and legal research to support country expansion assessments, new product launches, and partner onboarding.
• Utilise modern tools and AI-assisted research methods, including prompt engineering, to improve the efficiency and quality of compliance work.

You’ll be successful in this role if you:

• You are currently enrolled at a German university or Hochschule and expect to remain enrolled for at least one more year.
• You are based in Berlin and available to work in a hybrid setup with regular time in the office.
• You are studying law, finance, or a related field, and you have already gained relevant internship or working student experience in compliance or another highly regulated environment.
• You have a solid understanding of compliance and what it means to work in a second line of defence function.
• You communicate clearly in English and feel comfortable working in a team with a strong written culture and structured documentation.
• You are curious, organised, and solution-oriented: you enjoy learning, researching, managing your work independently, collaborating with others, and using technology to improve how work gets done.
• First hands-on experience with AI prompting or technology-supported research and productivity workflows.

What great looks like

• You bring a thoughtful, grounded attitude to learning and do not approach the role with a know-it-all mindset.
• You are open to feedback, ask good questions, and actively seek to understand how and why things are done.
• You combine attention to detail with strong self-management and follow-through.
• You are a strong team player who communicates clearly and contributes reliably.
• You are excited by structured problem-solving and pragmatic, technology-driven ways of working.
