More about Fran 

Fran Luckin is the Chief Creative Officer of Grey Africa and a member of the ten-person Grey Global Creative Board.

Fran started out as an apprentice copywriter at the Jupiter Drawing Room following an interview in which she managed to distract CEO Graham Warsop’s attention away from her dismal portfolio by talking about books. She became a creative director at TBWA/Hunt Lascaris and continued in this position at Ogilvy Johannesburg, where she was made ECD in 2008. In 2013 she went full-digital and joined Quirk Johannesburg (now Mirum) as ECD. There she learned (among other things) what UX is and why “viral” is a dirty word.

She has judged international and local creative awards shows and in 2017 she served as Jury

President of the Print and Publishing Jury at the Cannes Lions – the first female Jury President from Africa. Fran has an MBA from the Berlin School of Creative Leadership, which she claims, has been one of the best experiences of her life so far.

She served 3 years as Chairman of the Academic Board of the Red and Yellow School of Advertising and still sits on the school’s Advisory Board. In her spare time, she plays the bass guitar with staggering ineptitude.
