About Us

History and Mission

We’re not your typical consulting company. Global Sentynel was founded by friends who have dedicated most of their careers to IT and cybersecurity within large multinational consulting firms. Together, they bring over 70 years of experience in delivering security and technology risk management services and solutions to customers and partners worldwide.

Here’s what sets us apart:

  1. Passion for Our Clients: We don’t just deliver work; we collaborate with clients we genuinely enjoy working with. Our personalised approach ensures that your goals become our goals.
  2. Highly Skilled Team: Our team is composed of top-tier professionals with diverse expertise. From strategy to execution, we’re equipped to handle complex challenges and deliver exceptional results.
  3. Disruptive: Driven by values of mutual trust, respect, and collaboration, Global Sentynel was created with the goal of disrupting the traditional delivery model. We provide optimised solutions to clients, in the areas where we are highly skilled, without the exorbitant cost and overhead of a large firm.
  4. We finish more projects than we start:  We can help you close out your large, complex programs when your existing partners have failed to deliver.  Or if your problem is outside our current capability, we will be up front with you about it and recommend a partner than can help.

Experience the Global Sentynel difference. Let’s create something remarkable together!
