Areas of Expertise

Experience in the Superyacht Industry

Charlotte has organised over 200 charters throughout her career, representing approximately 1,500 charter days. Her experience spans a wide variety of programmes, from smaller catamaran charters through to 100-metre superyacht charters, covering family groups, couples, corporate events and more specialised trips such as diving-focused itineraries. Prior to joining Edmiston, Charlotte spent time travelling extensively while working in luxury retail. This combination gave her a strong understanding of client expectations within the luxury sector, alongside a genuine appreciation for global destinations and cultural nuance. Since joining Edmiston, she has developed a broad and adaptable approach to charter brokerage, allowing her to work confidently across different yacht sizes, destinations and client requirements.

Approach to Brokerage

Charlotte takes a client-focused and experience-led approach to charter brokerage, with particular emphasis on the overall feel of a charter rather than just the logistics. She places strong importance on the role of the crew, recognising that the onboard atmosphere and service are central to a successful experience. She is particularly experienced in organising family charters, where balancing the needs of different age groups is key. Her approach is to ensure that each guest, from children to grandparents, takes something meaningful from the experience.
