About the Role

tec4u is looking for a Head of Growth & MarTech to build, operate, and technically execute the technology infrastructure behind data-driven growth — CRM, marketing automation, analytics, and AI-powered campaigns. The HoG identifies and technically pre-qualifies potential customers through automated, technology-driven systems and ensures their structured handover to Sales.

Operating model: The HoG is accountable for the performance, quality, and reliability of the systems and campaigns they operate — including the technical execution of AI-powered campaigns and the quality of leads handed over to Sales. From the point of handover, Sales assumes full accountability for customer-facing activities: outreach, commercial qualification, opportunity development, proposals, and closing. Overall strategic responsibility for market development and expansion decisions remains with the CEO; the HoG provides data-driven recommendations to inform those decisions.

What You’ll Own

HubSpot & MarTech Stack

• Lead implementation and administration of HubSpot as the core CRM/marketing automation platform (setup, workflows, integrations, data hygiene)

• Design and operate the technological foundation connecting marketing, sales, and CS systems for full-funnel visibility

AI-Powered Campaign Execution & Lead Generation

• Select and implement suitable AI technologies for prospect identification, data enrichment, and automated pre-qualification

• Independently set up, configure, execute, monitor, and optimize automated AI-powered campaigns and processes from a technical perspective

• Own the structured, automated handover of generated and pre-qualified leads to Sales at a clearly defined handover point

• Operational responsibility ends at that handover point; Sales owns everything from first customer contact onward

AI-Powered Sales Tools

• Select, implement, integrate, and operationally manage AI-powered sales and marketing tools (lead scoring, enrichment, predictive analytics, prospecting automation)

• Evaluate commercial value and ROI of candidate tools before implementation, including HubSpot integration

• Accountable for technical performance, data quality, reliability, and continuous optimization — not for commercial use of these tools by Sales

Growth & Revenue Intelligence

• Build attribution models and reporting frameworks showing campaign and system performance

• Translate data into recommendations for the CEO and functional leaders to inform strategic and expansion decisions

• Continuously test and iterate on growth experiments and automation using a data-first approach

Expansion & Market Intelligence

• Analyze cohort, retention, and expansion-revenue data to surface potential new segments and opportunities

• Present data-backed findings and recommendations to the CEO quarterly; final decisions on market development and expansion remain with the CEO

AI & GTM Enablement

• Pilot AI agents and automation across the lead generation and pre-qualification process

• Build internal AI literacy across the growth/marketing team

• Establish guardrails for responsible AI use — GDPR compliance, data privacy, accuracy checks, human-in-the-loop review

Cross-Functional Alignment

• Partner with Sales, CS, and Product on shared definitions (e.g., what qualifies as a “sales-ready lead”) and a clean handover process

• Act as the technical and data backbone that Sales and Marketing leadership rely on, without owning their commercial outcomes

How Success Is Measured

• Technical performance and reliability of campaigns, automations, and the MarTech stack

• Automation efficiency and system uptime/quality

• Volume and quality of leads generated, pre-qualified, and handed over to Sales

• Data quality and attribution/reporting accuracy

What You’ll Bring

• English & German fluency (required)

• 5+ years in growth, MarTech, or marketing operations, with hands-on HubSpot implementation experience

• Proven experience building and operating automated lead generation and pre-qualification systems

• Strong technical fluency with CRM/automation platforms, integrations (APIs, webhooks), and data pipelines

• Experience selecting, implementing, and managing AI-powered sales/marketing tools

• Sharp analytical skills — attribution modeling, campaign diagnostics, reporting

• Practical knowledge of AI/automation tools for GTM, with GDPR awareness

• Comfortable operating within a clearly scoped technical/operational mandate, handing off commercial ownership to Sales

Nice to Have

• HubSpot certification(s)

• Startup/PE-backed scaling experience

• SQL/scripting skills

• French

What Makes This Role Attractive

You'll own the growth engine end-to-end — from lead generation through customer expansion — with direct visibility to the CEO. You focus on systems, data, and signal; Sales and CS own the relationships and the close. This is a builder's role: architecting

infrastructure one day, digging into a broken workflow or a churn signal the next.

The expected base salary for this position is EUR 70,000–100,000 per year, based on full-time employment (100%), excluding annual bonus and equity (when applicable). For part-time arrangements, salary is adjusted
