About FACG

The power behind the scenes.

Every great business has a heartbeat. For our clients, it's us: the back-office and technology team that keeps everything moving with precision, passion and purpose. You take the spotlight; we power the stage.

Our story

A back office that punches above its weight.

FACG started with a simple belief: small and mid-market businesses deserve the same calibre of IT and security as the FTSE 100. Today, with engineering teams in the United Kingdom and Pakistan, we deliver follow-the-sun coverage and enterprise-grade outcomes at a price that makes sense.
