Frankly, putting your time and energy into any cert dealing with the cloud is going to yield a lot more than any of the certs we're talking about.
This.

I was thinking of recertifying my CCNA though, I think I have to do the whole course again, as it has also changed, (was 640) now something different
So when you say you're in a senior role, you mean a senior sysadmin? Or in a senior IT role? Entirely different career paths. A technical certification will help you in technical roles, not so much in senior managerial roles.
