James Graham-Cloete

James is our trusted and respected Director of Charter Management.

With over 16 years’ experience successfully representing some of the most prestigious yachts available for charter from 20m to 90m, his knowledge in all aspects of chartering and the high esteem in which he is held by owners and peers is second to none. He has served on the Board of MYBA and has earned his strong reputation with owners and within the industry, by providing a comprehensive and reliable service with attention to detail.

With a degree in Biology and a passion for the sea, a job as an accountant in the City of London was not the logical first step for James’ career, but that is where he ended up! After several years of number crunching, James took the bold step to follow his heart and forge a career closer to the water and joined Cavendish White as a trainee Charter Manager in 2004.

Managing a fleet of impressive yachts through the years as Charter Manager for Cavendish White, then Ocean Independence, James joined TWW Yachts to run the Charter Management department in 2017.
