German term or phrase: Arbeitskomplementär
Only two Google hits for this word! Comes from an Austrian partnership agreement:

"Bei Streitigkeiten der XXXX GmbH mit ihrem(n) Geschäftsführer(n) kann die XXX & Co. nur von Komplementären (auch Arbeitskomplementären) vertreten werden, die nicht gleichzeitig Geschäftsführer der XXX sind."

Explanation:
A "Komplementär" is a full, general, unlimited etc. partner. According to most dictionaries.
From the table on page 14 of the site below, it seems fairly clear that the "Arbeitskomplementär" is much less than that, so this would be my suggestion.
