New Scotland-based consultancy offers independent political judgement, drawing on more than a decade at the heart of devolved politics

Jamie Greene, who served as a Member of the Scottish Parliament for over a decade, has launched Kempock, a political advisory firm helping organisations understand and respond to devolved government, parliamentary scrutiny and public policy.

Kempock positions itself deliberately apart from traditional lobbying and public relations firms. Rather than selling access, it offers senior political counsel to organisations facing committee appearances, legislative change, regulatory pressure, media scrutiny and high-risk political exposure, across the public, private and third sectors. The firm also partners with traditional government relations, communications and PR agencies, complementing their client offering rather than competing with it.

During his time at Holyrood, Greene worked directly on legislation, scrutinised ministers and expert witnesses across policy areas including justice, education, transport, digital and public audit, and led and secured Scottish Budget negotiations worth more than £300 million, supporting sectors such as colleges, hospitality and tourism, social care and young entrepreneurship. He was named “Debater of the Year” at The Herald’s Scottish Politician of the Year awards, and appeared regularly across national television, radio and print media.
