Then Air Charter Service (ACS) has some fantastic opportunities for you. The private aviation giant, which specializes in luxury, group, and cargo jet services, runs over 12,000 charters a year and is passionate about funding the future generation of the industry.

Founder Chris Leach started the company in 1990 and helped to finance its development by taking in a lodger, Justin Bowman, a university student who \u2018had an encyclopaedic knowledge of aircraft\u2019, says Leach.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t long before Bowman became an intern at ACS and worked his way up to become the company\u2019s CEO. Other students who\u2019ve benefited from internship opportunities include David Lewis, who\u2019s now the ACS Search Marketing Executive, and Lloyd Robinson who started an internship in 2004. Since then, he\u2019s risen through the ranks to his current position as Business Development Director. Robinson says:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the past 13 years I have seen the company go from strength to strength. ACS has grown from a team of 30 to a company with over 400 employees, and offices across the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Today, ACS offers everything from luxury private jet services for business and leisure, to transporting humanitarian aid around the world.
