Hi, I'm Francesca. I'm a writer and creative who loves to tell stories.

7C82228D-901F-46A0-804A-B1FF190BAE5B_1_105_c

Stories that make people think, feel and do things a little differently.

As a creative copywriter and brand guardian, I’ve written words and come up with ideas for brilliant clients like Lidl, EDF, The Royal Mint, Girl’s Day School Trust, Sanofi, EY and many more. I’ve also worked in-house with brands across the luxury sector, like Bridgman and Holloways of Ludlow, crafting specialised content, campaigns, copy and comms to captivate their customers. My work has been shortlisted for a number of awards including Best Copywriting (for Costa Coffee) and Best National Employer Brand (for Lidl and Costa Coffee) which I'm pretty proud of.

I’ve also been a Team Leader at the Brixton Finishing School's Summer School programme, helping underrepresented talent shake up the creative industries.

And in my spare time, I write The Naive Edit, a newsletter/safe place/play space all about womanhood, culture and life. Not that I'm biased, but you should defo check it out.

Don't just take my word for it

Lovely words from lovely people I've worked with over the years. They've not been paid to say any of this, I promise.

MUNRAJ SINGH CHAWLA, ART DIRECTOR
Cesca is the kind of creative every agency dreams of having.
 
She’s not just incredibly talented at her craft, she’s got this ‘take-charge’ attitude that makes Creative Directors feel confident a project is in the best hands. You can lean on her, trust her, and know she’ll turn out magic every single time, achieving it with a mix of skill, creativity, and pure hard work. What makes Cesca stand out is her drive to constantly improve. She’s always studying, learning, and finding inspiration from industry greats, which keeps her work fresh and exciting. She’s a natural mentor to junior writers, inspiring them with her incredible wordsmithing and her ability to clearly communicate and sell her ideas.

She’s got everything it takes to go far in this industry, and I can’t wait to see what she does next. Anyone who gets to work with Cesca is lucky to have her on their team.
