ABOUT THE RURAL OFFICE

Hello!

I’m Charlie,

I’ve spent my career working across rural businesses from estates, tourism and events to the thoroughbred breeding industry where I helped develop and run the Great British Bonus (GBB), a national incentive scheme distributing £5.5m a year.
I created The Rural Office to put that experience to work helping rural businesses get things done – whether that’s taking on a project, improving how things work or providing an extra pair of hands when they’re needed.
I believe the best support is practical, straightforward and tailored to the business in front of you. No unnecessary jargon or complicated processes – just someone who understands what needs doing and gets on with it.

I look forward to speaking to you.

  • “I would not hesitate in recommending Charlotte to anyone. She was unfailingly professional, incredibly hard-working, yet always maintained composure and a positive attitude. Her competence and quiet self assurance inspired confidence in myself and our team. I always found her wonderfully easy to work with and enjoyed her energy and dedication. I would go into battle with Charlotte anytime”
