From LSEG & Meta to your business

Scott Drinkwater has spent 7+ years at the sharp end of enterprise IT and security, working inside world-class organisations before bringing that expertise to London's small businesses. Not selling firewalls from a brochure — actually designing, deploying, and maintaining the infrastructure that protects critical facilities.

His enterprise career spans the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Meta, The Opportunity Centre (TOC), and Gallagher — designing access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, networks, and integrated security management across some of the most demanding environments in the industry. When a breach means more than a headline, Scott was the one making sure it didn't happen.

Alongside security, Scott has delivered 15+ technical skills across cloud infrastructure, server administration, system integration, cyber defence, web design and AI — completing 12 delivered projects along the way and ranking in the top 1% on the OpenRouter AI platform.

After watching London's small businesses get sold overpriced, under-delivered IT contracts by providers who couldn't tell a phishing attack from a printer jam, Scott founded TechSquad London on one premise: small businesses deserve the same level of security thinking and technical rigour as enterprises — without the enterprise price tag or the 6-month onboarding.

What clients say

Two short testimonials from recent TechSquad London engagements.

“Scott rebuilt our office IT in 48 hours the same way we'd seen done inside LSEG — just without the six-month onboarding. Network, access control, backups, the lot. Nothing's broken since.”
Director, Shoreditch Agency · TechSquad onboarding
“We inherited a mess from our previous provider. Scott mapped it, fixed it, and explained exactly what was going on in plain English. The first time we've actually understood our own IT.”
Owner, East London Retailer · IT health check & remediation

Shoreditch · 12-person fintech startup
Network was going down daily. Eight people couldn't work.
“Scott rebuilt our network in two weeks — the daily dropouts stopped immediately. That audit probably saved us six months of pain.”
Director, Shoreditch Agency · TechSquad onboarding
✓

Zero network incidents in the four months since. Support call volume dropped 40%. The monitoring alerts catch potential problems before they affect anyone.
