As the Marketing Science Lead, you champion data science practices with everyone: multidisciplinary teams, client teams, and anyone else you come across. You’re a rock star in all five sub-disciplines of Marketing Science—tracking and measurement, data visualization, testing and evaluation, data integration, and statistical modelling—but you pretty much wrote the book on at least one of them. Gaining leadership experience through supervising and developing a passionate team of analysts (including their work priorities, timelines, deliverables, and training) is definitely something you’re looking for. And you’re ready to expose your team to all sub-disciplines—because you believe it’s crucial to cultivate their expertise for both team development and client needs.
