Are you looking for a fun, fast-paced, and challenging work environment? Are you collaborative? Energetic? A self-starter? We’ve got an entry-level job for you!
TrendSource is a data collection and compliance management firm headquartered in San Diego, CA. We strive to create an environment that encourages people to take initiative, to set and achieve goals, and to pursue experiences that will help grow their careers.
We work hard but we like to have fun while we are doing it and, when it comes to dress code, we like to keep it casual.
OK, so what does TrendSource do?
TrendSource has been in business for over thirty years, growing from a small mystery shopping company into a compliance management and data collection firm. We work for both local and national businesses in multiple industries including retail, food service, finance, and housing. We provide these businesses with on-the-ground data collection and analysis, helping them to better serve and protect their customers.
But what is a Program Coordinator?
A Program Coordinator assigns and coordinates TrendSource’s vast network of Independent Contractors (Field Agents), who work in the field to collect data for our clients. An entry-level position, Program Coordinators are typically part of a 5-12 person team, working to:
- Recruit potential Field Agents by calling, emailing, and texting
- Schedule and prioritize assignments
- Coordinate Field Agents for individual assignments
- Provide follow-up and coaching
- Ensure completion of programs by the set deadline
- Manage multiple assignments at once, while adhering to strict deadlines
- This position is 100% remote
The work is fast-paced, deadline-driven, and collaborative. You should be too. And since the work is fast-paced and constantly evolving, it requires flexibility and adaptability. It’s definitely not for the change-averse.
Would you be a good fit at TrendSource?
At TrendSource, we love good humor and fun, but there are some things, like our core values, that we take very seriously. We are looking for candidates who share and will eagerly embrace these values, which are straightforward but also non-negotiable:

- Inclusion: We respect the unique experiences and perspectives of our coworkers and our community, and our company culture must be inclusive and free from physical and verbal abuse.
- Transparency: We practice open and honest communication. Dialogue for the betterment of the company should be respectful and received with an open mind.

If you find yourself nodding your head as you read through our values, then TrendSource is probably the place for you!
