Jamie is one of the most dedicated UX professionals I have ever met. It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with and learn from him over the past 4 years.
His passion for Selfridges, UX, user centred design, and most importantly, for putting the customer first, has been inspirational in my journey at Selfridges.
Jamie is an extremely supportive manager and his knowledge, experience and attitudes were instrumental in helping us establish the user experience research function and grow and develop our team.
He’s extremely well liked and is fantastic at building relationships with people at all levels to get the job done. His middle name should be adaptability because of his test and learn approach to everything - from getting customer feedback to shaping the team.
I owe a lot to Jamie for helping shape me into the researcher I am today. I highly recommend him and hope very much our paths cross again in the future.
