Hawkins was born in Saffron Walden and educated at Bristol Grammar School and the University of Bristol from which he graduated with a BA (Hons) in Economics. From 1959 to 1966, he worked as an economist for Courtaulds, with periods of secondment in Nigeria and Tunisia. Hawkins then joined the Economics Department of the University of Southampton where he was successively Lecturer and Senior Lecturer.

In his Who’s Who entry, Hawkins listed reading, music and sailing as recreations. Sailing was more than a recreation for Hawkins designed several yachts. An early design was the GK 24 of 1977, but his most successful design was the Hawk 20 which he developed with Reid Marine, a firm in Christchurch, Dorset, and which was launched at the Southampton Boat Show in 1993; the boat is described in Sailing Today Test Report (April 2001).

After leaving Parliament, he was the Deputy Chairman of the Black Country Development Corporation until 1998.
