Meet The Cherwell Agent
Chris WIllmer
The Cherwell Agent Founder & Director, Chris Willmer, originally from Cheshire, started working in agency in his home village of Lymm, taking a role at Bridgfords in 2009, one of the larger subsidiaries of the Countrywide group.
Chris learnt the fundamentals of an estate agency and spent two years working in the north west, selling predominantly middle-market village homes.
London soon called, and in 2011 Chris transferred to London with the Countrywide Group, this time with the Gascoigne-Pees subsidary based in East Sheen. Chris began operating in this salubrious part of south-west London, focused on large family homes, and did so for the following four years. In 2015, Chris was head-hunted and joined Chestertons, heading up a new office in Wandsworth Town, a fast paced environment working with a wide mixture of properties, from family houses to riverside penthouses, until 2021.
A move to the countryside in 2021 brought him to Strutt & Parker, where he focused on high-end village and country housing in North Oxfordshire, South Northamptonshire, and Warwickshire.​
In 2023 The Cherwell Agent launched and quickly became established as one of the most respected & highly sought after estate agency's in the local area.
​
Chris lives in Aynho with his wife and two small children. Chris loves the strong sense of community in Aynho and the local sports teams including Cricket and Squash. Chris coaches the under 9s cricket team and The Cherwell Agent are proud sponsors of Aynho Cricket club, of which Chris is the Club Captain.

Rebecca Jacob
Rebecca Jacob joined The Cherwell Agent in April 2025, bringing a wealth of experience from Savills, where she served as Executive Assistant to the Chairman of the Private Office. In this trusted role, she supported the coordination of high-value, often discreet property transactions for ultra-high-net-worth clients.
Her work involved managing relationships at the highest level and delivering consistently exceptional service with discretion, professionalism, and attention to detail.
​
Rebecca chose to join The Cherwell Agent because of the company’s unwavering commitment to client-centric service and its focus on beautiful, character-filled homes — the types of properties she most admires. She was also drawn to the partnership The Cherwell Agent has held with local charities, such as Katharine House Hospice, since they launched.
​
Her background in luxury real estate, combined with her strong organisational skills and sharp eye for detail, enables her to support both clients and colleagues to the highest standards.
​
Originally from Mid Wales, Rebecca lived in Sulgrave before moving to Charlton 18 months ago with her husband and their two sons, who attend the highly regarded Beachborough School.
She is passionate about interior design and travel, and her appreciation for architecture and aesthetics informs every aspect of her work — from seamless client communication to supporting the presentation of homes at their very best.
​
Rebecca loves the strong sense of community in Charlton, where families with similarly aged children support each other and regularly socialise. If she weren’t living there, she would choose Souldern for its picturesque stone-built cottages and the welcoming charm of The Fox, the village’s much-loved pub.
​
With her luxury property experience, local knowledge, and dedication to service, Rebecca plays a key role in delivering the exceptional experience The Cherwell Agent is known for.
