Her first documentary, The Sound of Therapy, focused on the use of music therapy with developmentally delayed children.

From 2004 to 2008, Hammett-Jamart held senior policy positions within the Australian government's film funding agencies (Policy Officer, Manager Governance and Strategic Planning). She was a member of the Transition Team responsible for overseeing the merger of the Film Finance Corporation Australia, the Australian Film Commission and Film Australia into the current single agency, Screen Australia.

Since obtaining her PhD in Media and Communications,[11] [12] she has published extensively on screen policy[13] [14] and delivered lectures at key international conferences and institutions including the US Society for Cinema and Media Studies (SCMS), the European Network for Cinema and Media Studies (NECS), King's College London[15] the British Institute in Paris, the University of Copenhagen,[16] and the Institut National d'Histoire de l'Art.[17] Hammett-Jamart is known in particular for her research into policy implementation on international co-productions[18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] and has held visiting fellowships at the Université Paris III (UFR Arts et Medias) and the University of London.
