After the end of the 2009–10 A-League season, he trialled with German second division club Greuther Fürth.[5] Unfortunately the trial was unsuccessful and he returned to Australia undecided on his next move.[6][7]
On 21 May 2010 he was signed to a two-year contract by Sydney FC.[8] Jamieson scored his first goal in the A-League against North Queensland Fury on 14 August 2010 with an unmarked header late in the game.[9]
He was released from Sydney FC after his 2-year contract was not renewed. He announced via his Twitter, that he was moving to Western Australia to play for Perth Glory.[10]
After 3 seasons in Perth, Jamieson signed with Western Sydney Wanderers on May 28, 2015. In his first season with the club, Jamieson was named in the PFA Team of the Year.[11]
