Charlie Martin is a professional racing driver, inclusion advocate, and performance coach who uses lessons from elite motorsport to help organisations build resilient, high-performing, and inclusive teams under pressure.

Competing in motorsport for over 20 years, Charlie has raced internationally across Europe, North America, and the UK, forging an unconventional path into professional racing without family backing or traditional karting routes. Starting with just £1,500, she progressed through sheer determination, adaptability, and belief, culminating in landmark achievements on some of the world’s most demanding circuits.

In 2020, Charlie made history as the first transgender driver to compete in the Nürburgring 24-Hour race, and in 2024 she finished second in class at the Lamborghini Super Trofeo support race for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, where she stood on the podium waving the Pride flag. Her career has become a case study in performance under pressure, trust-based teamwork, and the impact of belonging on results.

Beyond the track, Charlie works with global organisations including Meta, Amazon, BMW Group, Goldman Sachs, and Ford, translating high-stakes race environments into practical frameworks for leadership, collaboration, and cultural change. She is a Motorsport UK Inclusion Ambassador, a BMW Friend of the Brand, and works closely with charities such as Stonewall to improve LGBTQ+ visibility and inclusion in sport and business. Her broader profile includes recognition in British Vogue's 'Vogue 25' and appearances on Ninja Warrior UK.

Audiences gain clear, actionable insights into improving team performance, navigating adversity, and creating inclusive cultures where people can thrive. Organisations benefit from a compelling blend of elite sport credibility and practical behavioural tools.
