A Fortune 500 is looking for a proven Data Science leader to create a new Data Science team. This is your chance to build a department, define a strategy, and implement a road-map to create and build data science products.

The department will be part of a new innovation center, essentially a start-up within a bigger organization. As the new leader of this department it is imperative that you bring disruptive ideas, creative mindsets and hire top-notch technical talent. The head of this new Data Science division will be expected to solve classic e-commerce problems; targeted advertising and marketing, recommendation systems, behavioral analytics and customer profiling, supply chain optimization, etc.

You will be tasked with designing, building and selling analytics tools and products within the wider business and build a world class team to help you accomplish the vision you have submitted to stakeholders. This is an incredible opportunity to make a significant impact on a multibillion-dollar business; greenfield positions like this do not come around often.
