About Sophie

After completing my degree in Accounting & Finance, I spent 10 years working in the Luxury Yacht Industry, with much of that time as Chief Stewardess on yachts for some of the world’s ultra-high-net-worth individuals. This role demanded exceptional attention to detail and an unparalleled level of service, managing large interior teams across housekeeping and service, and creating bespoke events.

I also led multiple large-scale interior refits, which required meticulous project management and sparked my passion for interior design, styling, and organisation.

This unique background inspired me to found Olio & Co., bringing that same bespoke level of service and organisation to private households and estates in and around Cheltenham and the Cotswolds.

I love working closely with my clients to help them discover what more they can achieve. Life’s busy schedules can make it hard to find clarity, but with my organisational skills and intuitive approach, I’m here to help you live more efficiently, so you can truly enjoy the everyday.

  • "We hired Sophie as our ‘on the day’ wedding coordinator earlier this month, which was a bit of a luxury we might not have considered at the very beginning - but one of the best decisions we made. She inspired real confidence from our initial discussion and entrusting the biggest celebration of our lives to Sophie felt like putting it in the safest hands possible - she knew exactly what questions to ask of us to make sure the day ran smoothly and was as we hoped, allowing us to enjoy the wedding planning process so much more when things felt stressful. She handled every last request with complete professionalism - whether it came in last minute on the morning of, involved working with small children or was something nice to have but non-essential - if it mattered to us, then it mattered to her. Sophie seemed to charm everyone in the room, yet remained in the background and showed initiative in dealing with anything else that came her way on the day, so that we could relax with our guests. Added to that, our suppliers really looked like they enjoyed working together and happily told us so!"

  • "As it was a 60th celebration and we wanted to include our family we thought of cruising the Croatian Islands. We contacted Olio & Co. Sophie organised everything we needed for our week onboard the catamaran. Firstly, Sophie’s partner Jamie was our skipper and he was first class. Sophie asked about dietary requirements and food preferences. All the food and drinks were delivered to the marina and stowed aboard prior to our arrival. Sophie and Jamie also plotted the route taken around the islands, booked restaurants and even sorted the winery tour. We all had an amazing time and would highly recommend Olio &Co. Our next trip with Olio & Co will be around the Greek Islands. A truly fantastic experience with Sophie & Jamie".

  • "We were first introduced to Sophie when she stepped In effortlessly, very last minute, to help with a formal shoot weekend on a private Estate. Her vast knowledge and understanding of what was required by both guests and other staff made it an absolute pleasure to work along side her. Sophie has since helped us with a variety of formal and informal events and has been a huge hit with all who have been served by her or worked along side her. We look forward to booking Sophie again very soon".

  • "I've had the great pleasure of working with Sophie for several months. As my VA there's no doubt she's has improved my life immeasurably. She's calm, efficient, on the ball, intelligent, financially astute and an all round lovely person. I don't know how I ever managed without her."

  • Thank you again for everything — you were absolutely incredible! So many guests and suppliers have commented on how amazing you were. Honestly, we couldn’t have pulled it off without you. We did it! And every single moment was executed perfectly. I truly can’t thank you enough, a billion thank yous still wouldn’t be enough!
