Apply NowJoin Ipsos and take on a role that gets you out and about in your local area. As a Field Market Research Interviewer, you’ll travel across bus routes and stations, speaking with passengers to help improve public transport across Scotland.
What the Role Involves
Each shift is based on a specific route, stop, or station. You’ll be provided with everything you need, including a tablet, survey materials, and ID, to carry out your work confidently.

Shifts may vary:
Some involve travelling on a bus for the full route
Others are based at a bus stop or station (typically around 3 hours)

What to Expect
Paid per shift (rather than hourly)
Typically around 2 shifts per week, depending on local demand
Flexible, part-time work that fits around other commitments
Free travel on the bus services you are surveying
Opportunities for additional work and performance-based earnings
This role can involve early starts, varied locations, and approaching people who may not always want to take part, but it’s also a great way to work flexibly and meet a wide range of people.
Why Join Ipsos?
Comprehensive, award-winning training
Supportive team environment and ongoing guidance
Access to employee discounts
You’ll Be a Great Fit If You:
Are confident speaking to members of the public
Are comfortable working independently in different locations
Can stay motivated, even when responses are low

Are happy travelling locally and working on buses
Are looking for flexible, ongoing fieldwork opportunities
