Position Overview

We are recruiting experienced freelance telephone interviewers to conduct voice of customer primary research interviews with senior executives and industry experts in the automotive industry in September 2026. Interviews will be run on our CATI system, covering France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and Poland. This is high-caliber B2B research, not consumer polling: respondents are hard-to-reach professionals, so credibility, business fluency, and the ability to hold a real conversation on the topic matter as much as script delivery.

Responsibilities

• Conduct telephone interviews with executives and experts using our CATI platform
• Recruit and schedule respondents within target quotas
• Probe and follow up naturally within a semi-structured guide, without straying from the research objectives
• Accurately log responses and flag data quality issues
• Meet weekly interview completion targets

Qualifications

• Native or near-native fluency in either French, German, or Polish (please specify your language(s) when applying), with strong working English for briefings and reporting
• Proven experience conducting qualitative and quantitative B2B or executive-level telephone interviews (market research, CATI, or expert network background strongly preferred)
• Comfortable engaging senior professionals (C-suite, engineers, fleet/procurement managers) and adapting tone accordingly
• Experience with market research and competitive analysis, preferably in the automotive industry, is an asset
• Available for a defined number of interview hours per day, with flexibility across time zones (France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Poland)

For this short-time assignment (approx 5 days to start with), we are offering an opportunity to collaborate (freelancer status) from a remote location (time zone should mostly match GMT, however).
