Field Collection Specialist

RetailData LLC is looking for a Field Collection Specialist to join the on-site team in Bedford, ENG. This full-time post is ideal for someone who can work independently, enjoy data-related tasks, and handle field work across local retailers. The company values accountability, respect, and trust, and supports employees with initial training and ongoing development. The company positions itself as an essential business and emphasizes A.R.T, Accountability, Respect, Trust, in how it operates. They back this up with training and development opportunities, plus a look at reliable data across a network of retailers. The job offers the chance to contribute meaningful field data while working in a role that relies on self-direction and accuracy. You’ll use a company mobile app to receive assignments, map out your day, and complete field tasks. Travel to stores is part of the routine, and drive time and mileage are reimbursed. The role suits people who like working solo, keeping precise records, and ensuring store data meets project criteria.

A day in the field

Each day starts with receiving assignments on your smartphone and planning efficient routes to the designated retailers in your area. At each stop you’ll gather product information, verify pricing, and confirm that your notes satisfy the project’s criteria. You’ll enter results into the pricing app, track the driving time and miles, and push forward with your tasks to keep on schedule, all while keeping a careful eye on accuracy.

The work is largely independent, so you’ll need to stay self-driven and manage deadlines without heavy supervision. The physical side includes standing for extended periods and occasionally lifting as much as 40 pounds. Some projects will involve working in cooler store aisles, so being comfortable with colder temperatures is part of the job.

Must-haves and nice-to-haves

Here’s what you need to bring to the role, and what helps you stand out.

• At least 18 years old
• High school diploma or equivalent
• A smartphone capable of running the company pricing app and accepting assignments
• A valid driver's license, a clean driving record, reliable transportation, and valid auto insurance
• Reliability to start and finish assignments on time with the level of detail the project requires
• Ability to stand through the shift and to lift up to 40 pounds intermittently
• Willingness to work in cold temperatures found in grocery store refrigerators and freezers as some tasks occur there

• No experience required, but it helps
• Identity theft protection and a 401(k) with match provided to team members
• Optimised, flexible schedules that support a healthy work-life balance
• Paid drive time and mileage reimbursement
• Opportunities for learning and development
• A comprehensive initial training program to set you up for success

Pay, benefits and practical details

Compensation is productivity-based, with a guaranteed minimum and room to grow as you increase your proficiency in completing projects. The package includes identity theft protection and a 401(k) with company match, plus flexible scheduling designed to support work-life balance. Drive time and mileage are reimbursed, and there are ample opportunities for learning and development. A structured training program helps new hires understand expectations from day one, and the company foregrounds its A.R.T values in daily work.
