About Seneca Consulting

Independent technology leadership you can trust.

Experienced, hands-on technology leadership for founder-led, mid-market businesses — independent, vendor-neutral, and part of the Seneca group.

All prices exclude VAT. Final scope and fees are agreed before work begins.

Who you work with — Barry Weaver

A hands-on technology executive and board director with over 20 years building and scaling technology businesses. As founding CTIO he grew Broadway Partners from two people to 200+ and raised over £200m — from friends & family and EIS through to large private equity.

He has rescued and scaled programmes across telecoms, ISPs, civil infrastructure and engineering, and taken technology all the way through investor scrutiny — the same scrutiny he now helps other founders prepare for.

Independent and vendor-neutral

We advise and lead; we don't sell the products we recommend. That independence is the whole point — especially for due diligence, vendor selection and spend reviews, where impartiality is what you're paying for.

Part of the Seneca group

Seneca Consulting is the advisory arm of the Seneca group. We draw on deep infrastructure, connectivity and compute experience, while remaining independent in the advice we give — so you get group-grade know-how with a single, accountable adviser.

"Significant technical delivery experience with a strategic mindset — highly recommend."

Alasdair Wright — Director of Marketing, Sky; Global Marketing Director, Betfair
