Jamie Pitman (born 6 January 1976 in Trowbridge, Wiltshire) is an English footballer currently playing for Forest Green Rovers, in the position of centre midfield.

He progressed through the youth system at Swindon Town, eventually making three league appearances before being released. He joined Hereford United in early 1996 when the Bulls started their push for the playoffs. He missed much of the following season through injury, which saw Hereford relegated out of the Football League. He stayed with the club for their first season in the Conference before spending two seasons each at Yeovil Town and Woking. During his spell at the latter, he scored the goal that knocked Hereford out of the FA Cup in 2000.

He rejoined the Bulls for the 2002-03 season when they were undergoing a squad clearout, although as a part time player initially as he also worked at Hereford Leisure Centre. He scored twice on his return, in a 2-1 against Farnborough Town and in the next two seasons he missed only a handful of League matches. His final game for the club was the Conference Playoff Final in 2006, where he came on as a substitute for the start of extra time to help Hereford regain their League status. He was the only Hereford player on the pitch who had experienced the club's relegation in 1997 as well as the two playoff disappointments in 2004 and 2005. Although he wished to stay at the club, he was not offered a new contract.

For the 2006-07 season he signed for Forest Green Rovers.
