Testimonial’s from previous colleagues

  • Jamie is a talented, smart, strategic, collaborative, team player. I had the fortunate opportunity to work closely with Jamie while I was Global Chief Marketing Officer at Converse (Nike Inc). Jamie's work on our brand led to significant share gain, strong sales results, and unprecedented buzz for Converse in the UK. Jamie played a significant role in the renaissance of a 100 year old brand and I will be forever grateful for all that she contributed to the business and to the team. Jamie is highly skilled in brand building - including communications, media, social, PR, and sales management. She always has a solid grasp on the business and was able to react to changes in the marketplace as they came up. If ever given the chance to work alongside Jamie, do not miss the opportunity. I would be honored to work on the same team as Jamie again someday.

  • I witnessed Jamie’s magic touch first hand when she brought a beloved high street brand back to life with the kind of intuitive care and passion that only someone who really understands the bare bones of a brand can. She quietly boasts the type of bespoke craftsmanship that you don’t often attribute to marketing departments, marrying the sought after skills of communication (both with the customer and press) and vision - the kind that steers ailing brands to refocus and follow an authentic and ultimately more successful path. She’s lives and breathes her craft and has certainly taught me a lot about the other side of an industry I’ve been immersed in for over 30 years.

  • Jamie impressed us as interim marketing lead UK&Ire at Sonos - so much that we worked hard to convince her to join the company. Jamie passionately spots (premium) opportunities, leads and executes concepts that really gave Sonos a competitive edge in the market. Given her mixed global and local experience, Jamie was able to execute super autonomously locally, translating the global work with cultural local edge and relevance. Jamie and her team pulled off a ton of premium work. I will not forget the special times we had at Abbey Road Studios. Most importantly though, Jamie is a lovely, warm hearted person, direct when needed but always with personal care. I much enjoyed working with her.

  • I had the pleasure of working alongside Jamie (in a different function) in London, NYC and Boston during her tenure at Converse/Nike Inc, and i can honestly say that she is an extremely talented and unique individual when it comes to Marketing solutions and tools. There is a severe lack of people in this industry who understand, and have truly lived 'music/art/youth/fashion/travel culture' whilst having the ability to blend that with a diverse experience & career growth across many top brands in the world. Jamie has the ability to let her passion take projects to new places, always leading with integrity, strategic judgement, vulnerability and hardworking ethic, and has a huge laugh as she moves though life and work. I hope we get to work together again soon, till then, I know she is going to crush whatever she sets her mind to. I have never met anyone who does not LOVE working, and being around Jamie - she is the best.

  • I was lucky to work both directly and as an agency with Jamie, first at Converse (when Nike bought the brand) and then again when she moved to Sonos. Both brands were in an exciting phase with large scale change and growth. Jamie is equal parts creative and strategist, with a commitment to creating innovative big ideas that cross channels. She has a clear vision, direction and focus on achieving brand and business KPIs, but this is always grounded in audience insight, understanding and empathy. Jamie’s experience, both brand and agency side, shines through in how she briefs and manages agencies and how campaigns are created and executed. She facilitates a collaborative environment where everyone is aligned and encouraged to lean into their expertise to push the work to its full potential - demonstrated by the consistent success of the brands and campaigns she has led.
