Career edit

Journalism edit

Charles is a former news anchor on BBC World News programmes, BBC World News. His specialist areas include economics, the EU and international diplomacy; he has a keen interest in issues surrounding the single currency.

Whilst working at BBC World News, he was perhaps most infamous for an apparent lack of punctuation during a rehearsal before the hourly news bulletin, leading to him transitioning immediately and without pause from the introduction to the first story, resulting in an accidental suggestion that he had been “kept hidden for almost two decades and forced to bear children”.

Communications edit

Between 2011 and 2022 Charles was the Director of the Communications department at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and a member of the Bank's weekly Executive Committee (EXCOM).

Consultancy edit

Since July 2022, Charles has been advising clients on communications as well as recording and producing the Vinyl Countdown Podcast with his son, Max.
