Meet the team

Before Justice & Care, he was Chief Operating Officer at Coutts, where he also led the bank’s work on diversity and inclusion. He has decades of experience in the legal and financial services sectors. 

Jamie is our Managing Director – which means he has fingers in many pies at Justice & Care. He joined the team in 2017 to head up our fundraising and communications. He has a background in journalism and charity work and is driven by a strong thirst for justice.  

Tariqul is a global hero in the fight against human trafficking – and it’s not just us that thinks that. In 2022, he was named by the US State Department as one of their Trafficking In Persons Report Heroes for his tireless work fighting the crime in Bangladesh with Justice & Care. He has years of experience in the development sector, knows exactly how to drive widespread change and has led our Bangladesh work since 2017.  

Naomi brings an innovative outlook and a deep commitment to rigour and effectiveness – which makes her ideally suited to oversee the development of our global strategy and lead our impact measurement work. She is passionate about producing and leveraging evidence of what really works in the anti-trafficking space to inform programmes and systemic change. Naomi has worked in leadership positions in the non-profit space for more than 15 years across fundraising, project management and monitoring and evaluation.
