Contract: Part time

Imagine it:

It's a lively Saturday morning at Heathrow Airport and you are at the centre of the action as a Field Market Research Interviewer. Your role is vital in gaining insights into the reasons travellers choose Heathrow as a gateway to the world.

You’ll work on a variety of seven hour shifts, to cover the whole week.

Employee Testimonials:

"Ipsos' culture of curiosity and collaboration creates a positive atmosphere where I've been able to thrive both personally and professionally." - Geoff, Field Market Research Interviewer

"I joined Ipsos in August 2016, after an old friend worked for the company briefly, and highly recommended it to me thinking it would be perfect for me! She was right! I was after something flexible and public facing, after a corporate Sales period…. dealing with the public was my forte. I took to the job very quickly, and soon realised it was very suitable for what I was after, as the flexibility gave me the lifestyle I was looking for, and not working to the 'clock' also appealed. 8 years later I'm still here going strong… I still love the flexibility, and earning a decent wage doing the equivalent of part‑time hours is fantastic. I enjoy the ratio of work, rest & play, and the job also gives me a level of control within it and managing (to a point) my own diary, works well. Although interviewing is a lonely job, I do feel part of a bigger team, with regular online drop‑in sessions and wonderful regional support. Being able to go home, switch off with minimal job stress has also kept me here this long, and whilst knocking on doors can at times provide various challenges, the rewards far outweigh them." - Dave, Field Market Research Interviewer

This job might be for you if:

• The vibrancy of an airport environment excites you.
• Complex and diverse human interactions fuel your curiosity.
• Flexibility with working odd hours fits your lifestyle.
• Making meaningful contributions to your community satisfies your career aspirations.
