A Day in the Life of an Ipsos Field Market Research Interviewer

Imagine it:

It’s Wednesday afternoon. You’ve enjoyed your day, and now it’s time for your shift as a Field Market Research Interviewer! You’re heading out for a scheduled 6-hour shift (starting around 1 or 2pm), one of three you’ve pre-booked for the week, consisting of weekdays and weekends between the hours of 9am and 8pm.

You hop in your car - you’ll need that, business insurance and a valid driver’s license for this job - and head to a neighbourhood nearby. Your mission? Chatting with people about their opinions and experiences - right at their doorstep! You’ll be going door-to-door, inviting people to participate in surveys. Don’t worry; we provide all the training you need to feel confident approaching people, even if they weren’t expecting a visit. And to make things easier, we offer mileage reimbursement for your travels.

You’ll use a company-provided tablet to record their answers, so no need to worry about paperwork. And the best part? You’re making a real difference! The information you gather helps businesses and organisations make decisions that impact your community.

What else makes Ipsos special?

• We’re committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. Ipsos has been recognised by The Times as one of the top 50 companies for gender balance in the UK for two years running!
• We provide award-winning training, setting you up for success.
• We’re socially conscious and committed to making a positive impact. Our BELONG networks help create a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone.
• We’re dedicated to environmental, social, and governance (ESG)principles, striving to minimise our environmental footprint and promote sustainability.

Plus, as an Ipsos interviewer, you’ll enjoy access to:

• Ipsos More: A fantastic platform offering discounts on everything from clothing and holidays to household goods and everyday shopping essentials. Treat yourself while saving money!
• Ipsos Wellbeing: A dedicated resource to support your wellbeing, with tips and advice on staying active, eating well, and practicing mindfulness.

This job might be for you if:

• You love meeting new people and hearing their stories.
• You’re comfortable striking up conversations and putting people at ease, even in unexpected situations.
• You’re looking for a part-time gig that lets you choose your hours (at least 12 hours per week in pre-booked 6-hour shifts) and be your own boss.
• You’re passionate about your community and want to have a voice in shaping its future.
