Interviewer/Field Worker in Greater Manchester, Greater Manchester, England, United Kingdom
Job Title: Interviewers
Location: Greater Manchester
Duration: Very flexible working hours (full time or part time)
Role Summary:
You will be required to take a pre prepared set of questions from chosen households by the client (no cold calling). The aim is to track a travel study dairy on people’s behaviour to bid for capital funding on how to change travel behaviour for new Bus routes/roads for new fundings to improve issues within the community.
You will be given a bunch of specific households you will need to attend within around Greater Manchester therefore, very flexible working hours are permitted to taylor what works for the household members and employees.
The work is split into sample points. Each sample point has 10 addresses. Interviewers are expected to go to each address at least 4 times before its classed as a non-contact. On average interviewers get an interview at 4-6 of the addresses.
The job is based round districts in Greater Manchester. Each month we allocate between 3 and 6 sample points per district. Addresses can be anywhere in the district – we do try to cluster them as much as possible but they are very rarely in the same street etc so a car is needed to get from one to the next.
The pay is structured as follows:
- £65 per sample point (for attempting all 10 addresses regardless of outcome)
- Pay per interview completed (this is on a sliding scale starting at £8 for a one person Household up to £45 for an 8 person Household)
- Mileage is paid but not travel time
- Bonus for meeting targets (targets are just getting a spread of day of week – need week day and weekend interviews)
- £12 an hour for any training/ briefing sessions etc
So pay varies – some months interviewers can be really successful others less so but the pay structure means they are never out of pocket. Most of our current interviewers have been working on the project for over 5 years so it must be worth it.
If you assume an average household size is 2.2 and they had 3 sample points earnings would be around £450 It takes about 5 days to do 3 sample points (but they don’t do the 5 days in one chunk)
