Founder and CEO
Ali Faraz
I founded ACS Global Consultants in Birmingham in 2020. Since then, students from the UK, the Gulf, South Asia and Africa have trusted us with one of the largest decisions of their lives. We have placed them at universities in the UK, Canada, the United States and New Zealand, and across Europe, particularly in Germany and Spain.
My professional background is in technology for the education and recruitment sectors. I worked on the platforms colleges, training providers and employers use to manage learners and hire people. That experience shapes how we work. An application is a process to be got right at every stage, and it deserves the same care a family puts into paying for it.
Our advice is candid. We recommend universities that genuinely fit a student's record and ambitions. We are clear about visa prospects before any money is spent, and families deal directly with the people handling their case.
If you are weighing up your options, I would be glad to talk them through with you.
