One Water has appointed Frances Lewthwaite as Marketing Manager to fuel growth, in a busy period in which the ethical water brand has doubled expansion at Sainsbury’s Local stores, and announced a partnership with premiership team Brentford Football Club.
Lewthwaite, an experienced expert in social media, influencer marketing, and brand and charity partnerships, will play a key role in amplifying One Water’s mission and expanding its presence across digital and retail channels.
Frances brings extensive experience from both corporate and high-growth brand environments, having worked with companies including Vitamin Well and its associated brands Barebells and NOCCO, Brands2Life, and FUEL10K.
Throughout her career, she has consistently delivered measurable results, including establishing Vitamin Well’s TikTok presence with 2 million organic views and 30,000 followers in just four months, while growing Instagram reach to 2 million per month. At FUEL10K, she led a charity partnership with FareShare that has since become an annual initiative donating over 1 million meals.
At One Water, Frances will focus on amplifying communication of the company’s purpose-driven mission, both across social media and in-person events. She will also collaborate with the sales team to support new business opportunities, increasing the brand’s accessibility to consumers and enabling them to “Do One Good Thing” with every purchase.
In partnership with The One Foundation, One has raised over £30m since its launch in 2005, helping to fund clean water and sanitation projects that have transformed the lives of over 5 million people in communities across Africa and beyond. With increased visibility at Sainsbury’s, One Water expects to accelerate its mission towards ending water poverty.
Ian Spooner, Brand Director at One Water comments,
“Frances brings data-driven rigour combined with the pragmatism and drive of someone who thrives in startups and high-growth brands. This is a busy time for us with Sainsbury’s and Brentford activity ramping up and we can’t wait for Frances to get stuck in. Her hustle mentality coupled with her corporate experience is going to be perfect.”
Frances Lewthwaite, Marketing Manager comments,
