Charles Schneider was born on June 28, 1898, in Paris, France.[1][2] His father was Eugène Schneider, II.[1] His mother was Antoinette de Rafélis de Saint-Sauveur.[1] He had two brothers, Henri-Paul and Jean, and a sister, Marie-Zélie. His cousin, Germaine Dulac, was a filmmaker.[3]
Schneider became a co-manager of the family business with his brother Jean in 1918.[1] However, due to managerial disagreements with their father, they were fired in 1924.[1] As a result, Schneider worked for the Gaumont Film Company.[1]
In February 1942, Schneider was appointed as an official at the Comité d’ORganization de la SIDérurgie (later known as the Comité des forges).[1] After his father's death in November 1942, he became the co-Chairman of the family business with his brother Jean.[1][4] From his brother's death in 1944 to 1960, he served as its sole Chairman.[1][4]
