In a nutshell:

Growth = Key KPI increment, including user retention and growth + business cost optimisation + important partnerships + new revenue stream identification, planning, and project implementation

Marketing = It's a subset of Growth team and assists the Growth folks with everything that's related to marketing

Growth folks are better paid and rightfully so and also layoffs of growth folks are lower when compared to marketing professionals.

From media planning to performance marketing. But I can tell you that 90% of people who call themselves growth marketers are performance marketers only
