Description

Freelance door to door Rep - Blackpool

Department: Data Collection Delivery, External Field

Employment Type: Freelance

Location: Home-based, UK

Compensation: £13.50 / hour

What’s the role about?

As a Field Interviewer, you’ll visit people in their homes to carry out vital research that shapes public policy — from healthcare to education. Using a tablet, you’ll guide conversations to collect real insights into daily life in Britain.

This isn’t a desk job. You’ll be out knocking on doors — often unannounced. Some people won’t answer. Some will say no. You’ll face tough moments, but when someone says yes and shares their story, you’ll know you’ve helped influence real change.

Requirements

A car is essential for this role. To apply, you must have:

• A valid UK driving licence
• Sole use of a car
• Class 1 Business Insurance (you’ll need to purchase this)

Additional details: Average earnings are £13.50/hour, with the opportunity to earn more the more interviews you achieve. If a month’s completed interviews would bring your salary below minimum wage, we will pay the difference. You will also receive a £250 joining bonus to get you started.

You must be able to commit to at least 20 hours a week, including evenings and weekends. You’ll also need to complete a DBS check, have the right to work in the UK, and have access to a laptop or tablet for training.

No research experience needed. If you’ve worked in a role where you support or interact with members of the public, or customers — you’ve already got the right skills.

What we’re looking for

• Resilient, confident communicators
• People who bounce back after rejection
• Independent, self-motivated workers
• Comfortable using basic tech (+ home WiFi)
