Albert Ojumiri Jarrett (born 23 October 1984 in Freetown, Sierra Leone) is a Sierra Leonean footballer who last played for Dulwich Hamlet and has represented the Sierra Leone national football team.
Jarrett was born in Freetown to Creole parents, but was raised in South London, England. He started his career as a schoolboy at Arsenal, before joining the youth academy at Dulwich Hamlet.
During the 2002–03 season, he was spotted by Wimbledon whilst playing for Dulwich Hamlet in the FA Youth Cup, and was offered a place in the Dons academy set-up. He played ten games for the Dons in 2003–04, but was released at the end of the season.
In August 2004 he signed a three-year deal with Championship team Brighton & Hove Albion, having impressed on a trial basis. He scored one goal against Crewe Alexandra, but soon fell out of the first team picture. In March 2005 he was loaned out to Conference National team Stevenage Borough, where he made four appearances.
He missed the start of the 2005–06 campaign with a foot injury. Upon his recovery he joined Swindon Town on a one-month loan deal on 19 January 2006, making his debut for the club two days later in a 4–2 victory over Bournemouth. Having made one start and three substitute appearances in his initial month at the club, his loan was extended for a second month, before he returned to Brighton.
