What growth and GTM roles do
Growth roles own the levers that move users and revenue — acquisition, activation, retention, and the experiments that improve them. GTM (Go-To-Market) roles own how a product reaches and wins its market — positioning, launch, sales enablement and partnerships.
They're outcome-driven seats that reward people who are both analytical and creative, and comfortable being measured on numbers.
What growth roles pay
Growth and GTM compensation in Indian startups varies with seniority and whether variable/commission is attached. Managerial growth roles commonly land in the ₹10–25 LPA range at funded companies, with leads and heads higher. Some roles include performance-linked pay.

Frequently asked questions
Do growth roles require a marketing degree?
No. Founders hire for demonstrated results and analytical ability. A portfolio of experiments beats a degree.
What's the difference between Growth and GTM?
Growth optimizes the funnel you have; GTM defines how a product enters and wins a market. They overlap and sometimes share a title.
Are these roles remote?
Many growth roles can be hybrid or remote since the work is measurable. You can filter for remote roles.
