From presenting slots on local radio stations such as Rinse FM in early 2014, to hosting the Maya Jama show on BBC Radio 1 from 2018 – 2020, Maya landed her first big TV job on MTV Base’s show ‘The Wrap Up’ in 2014, aged just 20. She went on to regularly present for MTV and Channel 4, among other networks. In 2019, Jama hosted ‘The Circle’ – the popular Channel 4 reality programme, followed by presenting BBC Three competition Glow Up: Britain’s Next Make-Up Star for its third and fourth series’. In 2022 Jama was announced as the new host of much-loved ITV dating reality series Love Island. Maya was seen in her first acting role as Brenda in Katherine Ryan’s Netflix series ‘The Duchess’ which aired in 2020.

A patron of fashion, Maya is a member of the British Fashion Council ‘s Advisory Committee.
Outside of her commercial projects and leaning into her passion for entrepreneurialism, in December 2020, after much anticipation, Maya launched her own face and eye-mask range, MIJ Masks, with its first release selling out within 24 hours. Continuing her love for the beauty space, Maya has recently been announced as the global ambassador for Rimmel London, taking the reins from icons such as Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne and Adwoa Aboah to front their global campaigns. She is also an ambassador for Gordon’s Premium Pink Gin and in 2024 announced her own collection with hair brand Beauty Works.
Outside of her broadcast and brand endeavours, Maya is an advocate for social issues and has been a longstanding ambassador for Savera UK which operates to provide services to individuals from Black ethnic minority communities who are at risk of domestic abuse.
