Interviewers - Face-to-Face
Join Roy Morgan on a landmark national study exploring how life in Australia affects the mental health and wellbeing of our young people. Beginning November 2025, our Field Research Officers will visit selected households to conduct structured, face-to-face interviews with people who agree to participate. Your resilience, professionalism and people skills will help turn “cold” introductions at the door into participation, delivering high-quality, representative evidence used by policy makers to shape better services and outcomes for young Australians.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Visit assigned households and confidently initiate conversations
• Build rapport quickly, manage refusals and objections respectfully
• Follow safety and privacy protocols, and maintain strict confidentiality
• Plan your weekly schedule including at least one weekend day
• Work between 20 and 30 hours per week

WHO IS BEST SUITED FOR THIS ROLE

• Resilient relationship-builder: You approach each door with the same friendly and professional approach, regardless of outcome.
• 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: Confident using a tablet and following on-screen scripts and protocols exactly as trained.
  Nice-to-have: experience in field interviewing, door-to-door outreach or sales, call centre/customer service, community work, or education/youth services.
