Our team are exceptionally proud to share this exciting announcement, and wish Francesca Garnsey the very best in her new appointment as Managing Director!
"Just over 9 years ago I joined TMC Strategic Communications. Today, I have the privilege of leading the agency as Managing Director.
When the conversation around our ongoing leadership and building a sustainable future first started a few years ago, my immediate reaction was a healthy dose of imposter syndrome. But as the role has evolved, so have I. I am ready.
I’ve had nearly a decade to learn this business, our industry and specialist sectors. Tim McCloud and Dr Jan McCloud have provided me with valuable mentorship, along with the support of the dedicated and hard-working wider team. I’ve been given space to lead, make difficult decisions, get things wrong, grow in confidence and understand what really matters about the way TMC works.
To our team, I’ll keep caring about your experience here, your progression and giving you the environment and opportunities to do brilliant work.
To our clients, I’ll keep protecting the standards and relationships we’ve built, and making sure you continue to feel you’re in safe hands.
To TMC, I’ll keep pushing us forward without losing the things that have made this such a special business to be part of.
I’m incredibly proud of what TMC has already become. Now I’m looking forward to taking responsibility for what comes next."
