First woman appointed to Caxtons’ board

Charlotte Bland - Caxtons Chartered Surveyors

Charlotte Bland BSc (Hons) MSc MRICS has been appointed a full board director at Caxtons, one of the largest independent firms of general practice chartered surveyors and property consultants in the South East.

Born, raised and living in Kent, Charlotte graduated from the London South Bank University with a Distinction in MSc Real Estate Appraisal. Her first job was with a small, independent firm of surveyors in Hertfordshire, working mostly on landlord & tenant and corporate real estate matters. Charlotte joined Caxtons in 2011 and now heads up the Commercial Management and Investment department. She specialises in acquiring and disposing of property investments for a variety of clients.

Neil Chatterton, Managing Director of the award winning firm said “It has taken Charlotte less than six years to become a director of the company, which was founded in 1990 and is a busy regional practice.

“Charlotte’s experience, knowledge and passion ensure that clients benefit from her advice.  She is a great advocate for all who enter the sector, which is seeing more women taking on influential and powerful roles across the property and construction industry.

“We are delighted that Charlotte is taking on the role and I and my fellow directors welcome her considerable expertise to the Board.”

Charlotte was pragmatic about her appointment saying that when she began her career in property she knew that it was for her: “I always needed a career that I would enjoy every day – a career for life – and I found it in property. I am serious about the sector and ensuring that it flourishes.  I have learnt so much since qualifying and I endeavour to use that knowledge and expertise to my clients’ advantage, whatever the project in hand.”

Charlotte took up her post on 1st July 2017.
