About – Jamie Tomkins

I’m a freelance writer and brand consultant with extensive experience client and agency-side—from interviewing Bond villains for GQ magazine to racing BMWs with the England Rugby team.

I’ve avoided death in the French Pyrenees with Rapha, built websites for the UK Government, and spoken on panels for the Sustainable Brands conference.

I believe in the power of words—their ability to affect how we view ourselves, others and the world. So it’s important to choose those words carefully.

I love to work with progressive, future-facing and conscious brands within fashion, art and music. Those that use the power of words for good—to communicate, create and connect.

We really loved working with Jamie. He helped us to understand what we wanted from our brand personality and to then craft a tone of voice that delivered it. The resulting video direction stemmed from his script and helped to position freckl. as a fun, simple alternative to sustainable packaging.

Jamie’s writing brought to life our creative vision better than we could have imagined. Having been given limited cues and with little oversight of the event, he was able to set the scene and tone of the night perfectly; articulating the overall concept beautifully and narrating the more practical details with flair. The copy / words were exactly what we needed to pitch the proposal to both internal and external stakeholders and to bring them on the journey with us – leading to an extremely successful event.

Jamie has a rare open-mindedness about people and the world. His curiosity is infectious and he has an innate talent for encouraging stories, insights + revelations from the people he brings into spaces. Our partnership exceeded my expectations in every way. A skilled & thoughtful facilitator, Jamie asks questions that take people to the edges of their own experience. Helping his partners to craft narratives and stories that truly reflect the needs of their audiences.

Jamie is not only a great writer, but also a pleasure to work with. He has a brilliant attitude and is always willing to take on a challenge. He’s proven comfortable with clients ranging from startups to tech giants, and I’ve always been impressed with his empathetic and intelligent approach to his work.
