Battle Reform Blueprint. Relevant section:

The job system - that series-defining trademark - will be implemented in FINAL FANTASY XIV (details such as specific jobs TBA). Quests to unlock each job will become available once you have reached a certain rank in the corresponding class.
Rather than being advanced versions of classes, we would like players to think of jobs as specialized playing styles optimized for partying. While playing as a particular job will render you unable to equip certain actions of other classes, you will be compensated with access to exclusive actions, which can be acquired through quests.

Another on topic question I have:

Are we going to ever see new abilities to purchase with guild marks?

I currently own every single ability and have more than 50k points for all DoW/DoM classes with nothing to spend them on.

(Not bragging, a serious question!)
