Maynard-Brewer was part of the Charlton side that won promotion from League One in 2025, making 19 appearances and featuring on the bench for the play-off final at Wembley against Leyton Orient.
He expressed his excitement about joining, saying: "I'm super happy to be here. It seems like a really positive environment.
I had a good chat with Darryl Flahavan last week and he just sounded so optimistic about the season."
He added: "I'm really excited about the next few weeks and really getting to work with the guys, they are very welcoming.
Obviously, with being part of a big club, there's responsibility that comes with that and the high expectations, which is to get out of this league and get promoted."
Sporting director Simon Wilson highlighted Maynard-Brewer's extensive EFL experience, noting his eight seasons at Charlton and his adaptability through various development loans.

He has been a part of successful teams - either as a number one or two - and tested himself in different environments through several development loans.
