The Role
Do you have a device with a microphone? Get paid to take part in voice interviews. We’re inviting medical assistants based in the UK to take part in a research study run by an institution focused on global policy change. This is a paid research participation opportunity, not a job as a medical assistant. Quick signup, flexible schedule, real payouts.
Your voice can help build a picture of how people across the UK think and talk about important issues, and that evidence is designed to inform real policy decisions. Every participant counts, and together we’re working toward a shared research goal.
The project launches in about one week, and places are allocated on a first come, first served basis, so please sign up as soon as you can.
What you’ll be doing
- Taking part in a short voice conversation with another participant
- Completing a short online survey sharing your views and experiences
- Giving honest, considered responses based on your own perspective
- Watching the community research goal progress as more participants take part
What you’ll bring
- Residence in the UK
- Fluent English
- A device with a working microphone
- No research experience or specialist research qualifications required. We want a genuine cross-section of the UK population.
Why join this project?
This is a chance to be part of something meaningful and have a say in research aimed at shaping policy. Once the findings are published, we’ll share them with participants so you can see the impact of your contribution.
Please note that you must be new to Prolific to sign up successfully. If you already have a Prolific account, there is no need to register again. Simply ensure your profile is up to date to be eligible for this and future opportunities.

About this role
Prolific is recruiting UK-based medical assistants to participate in a paid research study focused on policy issues. This is not a job posting but rather an invitation to join a specific research project as a paid participant. The work involves taking part in a voice conversation with another participant and completing a short online survey about your views and experiences, with compensation at £19 per hour based on actual study time.
The opportunity suits people with UK residency, fluent English, and access to a device with a microphone—no research experience or qualifications are needed. The project prioritizes genuine perspectives from a cross-section of the population rather than specialists. Participation is flexible and entirely remote, with places allocated on a first-come basis as the study launches within about a week.
This is a meaningful way to contribute to research intended to inform policy decisions if you're willing to share your honest perspective in a structured conversation and survey format. You'll have the chance to see the published findings once the research concludes. Note that you must be new to Prolific's platform to sign up for this particular opportunity.
