I’m Jamie, a dynamic, modern toastmaster who brings energy, warmth & unforgettable moments to every event

Bringing the energy

Jamie Paskin is a top London toastmaster and Master of Ceremonies, bursting onto the scene in 2011, but Jamie was a toastmaster by nature – albeit without the red coat – ever since his school days. Indeed, it’s rare to find someone whose natural talent and personality make them so perfectly suited to the professional role they play.

Growing up in north London…

Jamie has always been known as an extremely social creature. As a child, his parents enrolled him into drama classes and elocution lessons, unknowingly preparing him for a life in the spotlight, projecting his voice with a sense of authority. After finishing his formal education, he went straight into the workplace, finding success in nightclub promoting and in editorial sales, both roles in which he had to make himself heard.

Always gravitating to social occasions, he is the very definition of a people’s person, something which shines through in his work nowadays.

Despite being able to play a traditional role, Jamie is not a traditional toastmaster. In his early forties, and regularly overseeing prestigious occasions at venues including Claridge’s and Natural History Museum London, he is single-handedly redefining the image of the toastmaster; youthful enough to be informal yet established enough to carry authority. At weddings, he is trusted and respected by the parents of the couple, yet also loved by the couple themselves.

In a landscape of older toastmasters…

Jamie truly stands out as being modern, warm, and caring; someone who visibly enjoys what they do and whose enjoyment is infectious. Jamie does not take himself too seriously, once admitting that if his client was having an ocean-themed party, he would gladly wear a wetsuit as he made announcements… anything to enhance the event and make his clients happy.

Jamie is a dynamic force that effortlessly infuses energy and enthusiasm into any event, transforming it into an unforgettable experience. With a charismatic presence and a keen ability to engage the audience, Jamie fosters a lively atmosphere that encourages participation and connection among attendees. Whether it’s a wedding, corporate gathering, or charity gala, Jamie’s knack for storytelling and humor creates a warm, inviting vibe, allowing guests to feel at ease while enjoying the festivities. His dedication to tailoring each event to the unique needs of the hosts ensures that every moment is memorable, leaving a lasting impression that resonates long after the event concludes.

A strong believer in the team dynamic, Jamie will do everything to make sure that every supplier can do their very best for the clients, reminding photographers/videographers of the schedule behind the scenes, constantly liaising with the chefs in the kitchen to ensure their service can be timed to perfection, or signalling to the band so they know when to finish their set. At a live event in which plans can change, Jamie’s presence is one of reassurance.

He has an incredible speaking voice…

But he is so much more than just a voice, in fact within his industry he is affectionately known as “the glue” which holds the event together.

Always going above and beyond the call of duty for his clients, who describe him as “kind, caring and helpful”, these traits have seen Jamie rise from his very first wedding in 2011 at which a friend asked him to make a few announcements, to hosting events for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, the British Heart Foundation and the Prince’s Trust.

The best piece of advice he ever received was to remain true to himself, an ethos which has seen him flourish when announcing the likes of Boris Johnson to the stage.

Away from events, Jamie is a warm character who places huge importance on his family, inspired by the love of his parents and always enjoying fun days out with his niece and nephew. He enjoys great food, time at the gym, and of course socialising with his friends.

What does the future hold for JP Toastmaster? Jamie looks forward to hosting many more incredible events, modernising the industry even further.
