Survey Fielding Manager – Opinion Research

FOR APPLICANTS WITH HANDS-ON SURVEY PROGRAMMING AND FIELDING EXPERIENCE IN PUBLIC OPINION OR MARKET RESEARCH

Remote, (Eastern Time Zone)

Who You Are
You program survey instruments, manage the field, clean the data, coordinate with vendors, and keep projects moving on schedule. You've done this work hands-on at a research firm (not in an academic setting), and you're comfortable owning the technical execution of multiple projects at once.

You may be a fit if:
* You have programmed surveys in Alchemer, Qualtrics, or a comparable professional survey platform - and can set up skip logic, quotas, randomization, piping, and multilanguage surveys without hand-holding
* You've managed survey fielding from launch through close: monitoring quotas, tracking sample quality, and keeping projects on timeline
* You've coordinated with external vendors - panel providers, call centers, mail houses - and can manage those relationships independently
* You have experience with sample preparation: lists manipulation, deduplication, creating clean sample files, generating unique identifiers
* You are meticulous about data quality - you catch errors before they reach anyone else
* You take initiative, ask questions when something is unclear, and don't wait to be told what to do next
* You're comfortable jumping between multiple projects in a fast-paced environment
* You are proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint
* You can create basic graphics using AI, Canva, or Adobe tools

What you'll do:
* Program and test online surveys in our survey platform, including email and texting campaigns, logic testing, and distribution setup
* Monitor and manage survey fielding: track quotas, sample quality, response rates, and project timelines
* Coordinate with external vendors - online panel providers, call centers, and mail vendors - and provide regular updates to internal project managers
* Prepare and clean sample files: create organized sample files, generate unique data fields
* Develop mail materials and coordinate with internal team and external mail vendors
* Perform data cleaning on survey outputs to verify data quality and integrity
* Code and analyze open-ended responses
* QC all deliverables: cross-check data sets, verify formatting, catch errors before client delivery
* Build charts, reporting visuals, and basic dashboards in PowerPoint, Canva, or Looker Studio
* Support the research team across the full project lifecycle

What we're NOT looking for:
Someone whose survey experience is limited to academic research or distributing simple online links

Required qualifications:
* At least one year of experience programming and fielding surveys in a professional opinion or market research setting
* Proficiency in online survey programming with a survey platform (tell us which ones you know well)
* Experience managing fielding for market research or public opinion research studies
* Experience with data cleaning and response monitoring
* Strong English writing, proofreading, and communication skills
* Bachelor's degree in marketing, political science, communication, business administration, or a related field

Preferred:
* Experience with SPSS, R, Wincross, or similar statistical/tabulation software

What we provide:
* A collaborative team
* A supportive environment where asking questions is encouraged
* Company-paid PhilHealth or HMO
* 13th month pay
* Paid time off

TO APPLY:
Send a link to your resume and LinkedIn profile. Also tell us:?
1. Which survey platform(s) have you programmed in, and approximately how many surveys have you built?
2. Describe one project where you managed fielding from start to finish - what was the methodology, and what did you personally handle?
