We ofter find "in charge" with no following prepositional phrase:

Beginning next week, you will be in charge.

So if it's followed by "with," it would be to describe the circumstances, not what he's in charge OF.

You will be in charge with the next show storm. (There's no statement of his specific responsibilities. We assume it's in prior context.)
