Job Description
Field Sales Rep - South West London

Department: Field Interviewers

Employment Type: Part Time

Location: South West London

Compensation: £15.12 / hour

Description

What you'll do

You will visit people in their homes to carry out vital research interviews on important topics such as health, housing and transport. Using a tablet or laptop, you will guide conversations that capture real experiences of daily life in Britain.

This is not a desk job. You will be in the community, knocking on doors. People receive a letter beforehand but they may not always expect you. Some will not answer; others will say no. That is normal and part of the role.

When someone says yes and shares their story, you will know you have helped create change that improves people's lives.

What you'll earn

£20-£30 per interview (typical). Plus:

  • Admin fees and holiday pay (12.1%)
  • Travel time at £4.68/hour for most projects
  • Mileage at 36p per mile (up to 10,000 miles)
  • £250 bonus after launch; £250 more at two months and four months

Average hourly rate: £15.12 (including holiday pay). Experienced interviewers earn more.

What you'll need

Essential
  • Valid UK driving licence and sole use of a car
  • Class 1 Business insurance
  • Right to work in the UK
  • Willingness to complete a DBS check
  • Reliable home broadband
  • Laptop or tablet with camera
  • Comfortable using basic technology
  • At least 18 hours available per week
  • Flexibility for weekdays, evenings and weekends
  • Strong verbal and written English
Personal qualities
  • Good at talking to people
  • Friendly and professional
  • Resilient and confident
  • Self motivated and independent
  • Good time management and prioritising skills

Who this suits

This role is ideal if you have worked in retail, hospitality, admin, driving, sales or any customer facing role. You do not need research experience. We are looking for reliable people who enjoy helping others and want flexible, part time hours that fit around other commitments.

  • One way video interview (via Willo)
  • Final interview (includes a short role play)
