Job description

PAVE Insight is a market intelligence firm focused on fleet telematics within the connected mobility industry. We provide data and insights on telematics providers and products, anchored to vehicle registration and vehicle parc data, so that product, strategy, and sales teams can benchmark competitors, size markets, and track adoption trends against a consistent taxonomy. Our coverage supports use cases from competitive benchmarking and market sizing to sales enablement and investment guidance for teams operating in fleet telematics.

The role

We are recruiting experienced freelance telephone interviewers to conduct voice of customer primary research interviews with senior executives and industry experts in the automotive industry in September 2026. Interviews will be run on our CATI system, covering France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and Poland. This is high-caliber B2B research, not consumer polling: respondents are hard-to-reach professionals, so credibility, business fluency, and the ability to hold a real conversation on the topic matter as much as script delivery.

Tasks

• Conduct telephone interviews with executives and experts using our CATI platform
• Recruit and schedule respondents within target quotas
• Probe and follow up naturally within a semi-structured guide, without straying from the research objectives
• Accurately log responses and flag data quality issues
• Meet weekly interview completion targets

Proven experience conducting qualitative and quantitative B2B or executive-level telephone interviews (market research, CATI, or expert network background strongly preferred)

Comfortable engaging senior professionals (C-suite, engineers, fleet/procurement managers) and adapting tone accordingly

Familiarity with, or genuine interest in, the automotive/connected mobility sector is a plus

Available for a defined number of interview hours per day, with flexibility across time zones (France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Poland)

Freelance/project-based contract, fully remote

Competitive day rate, commensurate with language and seniority (details discussed at interview)

Ongoing project pipeline across multiple waves of connected mobility research

Clear briefing, scripts, and support from the PAVE Insight research team
