Senior Compliance Manager (Legal, Privacy & AI Governance) (f/m/x)

Company Description

At Seven Senders, we connect people and markets, making international shipping simple.

We are Europe’s leading platform for cross-border parcel delivery, supporting e-commerce companies in scaling internationally and reaching millions of consumers across borders. By combining cutting-edge technology with strong local carrier networks, we ensure parcels move efficiently from warehouse to doorstep — whether speed or cost efficiency is the priority.

Job Description

Seven Senders is growing, and so is the regulatory and contractual complexity that comes with running a cross-border logistics platform. We're looking for a senior generalist to own legal, compliance, data protection, and AI governance topics for the business; and to build a centralized function for procurement compliance and controlling from scratch. 

This is a hands-on individual contributor role: you'll be the go-to person for contract review, GDPR questions, compliance training, and AI regulation readiness, while standing up lightweight procurement processes. You'll report to the Head of Finance & GRC and work alongside a working student who supports the team. 

Your main responsibilities:

• GDPR & data protection: field questions from the business, customers, and prospects; maintain documentation; track regulatory developments; run internal training; work closely with our external DPO 
• Compliance: keep policies and documentation current; monitor regulatory change and translate it into business processes; deliver training across the company 
• Support contract review: review and negotiate NDAs and legal terms in customer and supplier contracts; coordinate with external counsel where needed 
• AI compliance: maintain documentation, define and roll out training, own the implementation roadmap, and answer customer and prospect questions on our AI governance 
• Procurement: design and implement a centralized function for procurement compliance and controlling for the company 
• Ad hoc due diligence and project support across finance, legal, and the wider business 

Qualifications

This is what you need to succeed:

• Strong hands-on attitude and experience in compliance, privacy, or contract negotiation;  a law degree is a plus 
• 5+ years in a generalist legal, compliance, or privacy role; ideally in-house at a scale-up 
• Solid working knowledge of GDPR and German compliance frameworks; exposure to AI governance is a plus 
• Fluent German and English 
• Comfortable moving between strategic work (an AI governance roadmap) and operational work (answering a customer's DPA question) in the same day 
• A mentoring mindset; as you'll guide our working student on day-to-day GRC tasks 

Additional Information

What we offer:

Flexible & Hybrid Work: Our office is at Alexanderplatz; we have a hybrid working model with flexible remote-office set-up and working hours. And if you wish, you can work from almost anywhere for up to 2 months per year.

Benefits: We offer company lunches twice per month, a corporate benefits platform, and German language courses.

Mission Zero: Climate-neutral and long-term impact. With our green initiatives, we are reaching climate neutrality for ourselves, and hopefully, we're inspiring the entire logistics sector to join us to create a sustainable future.
