A former England and Super League netball player, Charlotte previously held key positions at British Swimming, the Beijing 2008 and London 2012 Olympic Games and Rugby World Cup, before joining Manchester City Football Club in 2015.
As Director of Operations and Development, Charlotte oversaw the strategic direction and delivery of operations and people development programmes at Manchester City’s Boys’ Academy. Charlotte then took on the role of Interim Academy Director of the boys’ academy before moving to become Managing Director of Manchester City Women in December 2023.
In her first year at the helm, she oversaw several major signings, announced the development of a £10 million bespoke training facility for the women’s first team, and saw the team return to UEFA Women’s Champions League football.
