From dun & bradstreet:
Marketing teams needed next generation of data scientists yesterday. Recent figures estimate that in 2015, the number of "big data" jobs will grow to 4.4 million, with 1.9 million in the United States. Leaders in these positions will be responsible for building intricate algorithms and crafting stories out of the massive amounts of data that today’s companies are generating. On marketing teams, data scientists will be responsible for connecting the dots between cross-platform audience experiences, optimizing customer lifetime value, building predictive analytics capabilities and guiding expansion into new markets.
