Join Roy Morgan and be part of a team conducting face-to-face interviews that capture the views, experiences and behaviours of Australians. As a Field Interviewer, you'll visit selected households in your local community, introduce yourself on behalf of Roy Morgan, and invite people to take part in important research. This is a face-to-face field role involving door knocking and engaging with households that are generally not expecting your visit. Your ability to build rapport, communicate confidently and remain resilient will play a key role in your success. Our Field Interviewers collect accurate, high-quality data that informs government, business and community decisions across the country.

- Plan your weekly schedule to meet agreed hours, including at least one weekend day.
All interviews are conducted using Roy Morgan's secure systems. We provide full training, a clear field manual, and ongoing support from experienced field managers.
Who is best suited for this role:
- Comfortable with door knocking: You're confident approaching households that aren't expecting your visit and can quickly establish trust and credibility.
- Resilient relationship-builder: You bounce back from a "no", stay friendly and professional, and approach the next household with the same energy.
- Empathetic communicator: You listen well, handle sensitive topics with care, and adapt your communication style to suit different people and households.
- Organised self-starter: You manage your time effectively, plan routes, keep accurate records, and work independently to achieve outcomes.
- Tech-comfortable: You're confident using tablets and following on-screen scripts, procedures and protocols.
Nice-to-have: Experience in field interviewing, door-to-door outreach, customer service, hospitality, retail, community services, education, fundraising or call centre environments.
Why you should apply:
- Make every conversation count: The information you collect helps businesses, governments and community organisations better understand the experiences and needs of Australians.
- Flexibility with structure: Choose your weekly schedule (with minimum hours) and work close to home where possible.
- Training & support: We equip you with the skills, tools and guidance to succeed. No previous market research experience is required.
