Overview

Join Roy Morgan and be part of a team conducting face-to-face interviews that capture the views, experiences, and behaviours of Australians.

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

  • Empathetic communicator: You listen well, handle sensitive topics with care, and adapt your style to suit different households.
  • Organised self-starter: You manage your time, plan routes, keep tidy records, and meet targets without constant supervision.
  • Tech-comfortable: You\'re confident with tablets and following on-screen scripts/protocols.

Nice-to-have: experience in field interviewing, door-to-door outreach, call centre/customer service, community work, or education services.

Why you should apply

  • Purpose with impact: Your work will contribute to vital data that supports decision-making at the highest levels.
  • 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 research experience required.
  • Professional standards: Be part of a respected team known for quality, accuracy and confidentiality.
  • Availability of 20+ hours per week (including one weekend day; flexibility to add hours at peak times)
  • Current driver\'s licence and a reliable, registered vehicle
  • Fluent English (spoken and written) and the legal right to work in Australia
  • Willingness to obtain a National Police Check and Working with Children\'s Check (paid by Roy Morgan)
