Spencer Riley is pleased to announce the promotion of Corey to Head of IoT & Monitoring Solutions.

Congratulations to Corey Ogden on his well-deserved promotion to Head of IoT & Monitoring Solutions!

The promotion reflects Corey’s progression through the business over the past three years, during which he has established himself as a specialist within the global Monitoring Solutions market.

Corey joined Spencer Riley as an Executive Search Consultant with no prior industry experience, completing the company’s structured training programme and building his market from the ground up.

“Coming from a competitive sports background, I’ve always had a strong drive to succeed. I came into the industry with zero prior experience and a goal to become one of the strongest performers in the company and learn everything I could about the market.

It was during this time that I established my core focus in Monitoring Solutions, alongside the foundations of executive search taught by Scott and the Spencer Riley leadership team, which I still use today.”

Within 12 months of joining the business, Corey was promoted to Senior Search Consultant after exceeding his targets and building a recognised presence within the cold chain monitoring sector. He later progressed to Principal Consultant, expanding his focus into adjacent markets including stationary monitoring, temperature compliance, environmental monitoring solutions and IoT devices.

During this period, Corey developed relationships with leaders across the Monitoring sector, becoming a trusted advisor within technically regulated markets.

“Under the new title I continued to expand my knowledge, establish new relationships with key voices and leaders across monitoring solutions. I’m happy to say that a lot of my success has come from the key relationships that I have built over the years as a trusted advisor and peer to the segment.”

Corey’s Career Progression in Executive Search

Over the past three years, Corey has progressed through multiple promotions while building a strong track record across global Monitoring and IoT markets.

Key placements include:

  • Chief Commercial Officer with a global leader in Environmental Monitoring and Temperature Compliance

  • US Managing Director with a global GxP Services & Cold Chain Monitoring organisation

  • Head of Life Sciences with a high-growth Real-Time Cold Chain Monitoring company

  • Director-level appointments across global GxP temperature compliance, IoT and AI enterprises

This experience laid the foundation for the formal launch of Spencer Riley’s IoT & Monitoring Solutions division under Corey’s leadership.

“After being promoted to Principal Consultant, I expanded beyond cold chain monitoring into stationary monitoring, temperature compliance and environmental monitoring. Working across these connected markets highlighted the opportunity to build a focused IoT & Monitoring division.”

Market Expertise

Corey specialises across the following areas:

  • Cold Chain Monitoring
  • Stationary Monitoring

Future Growth Plans for the IoT & Monitoring Executive Search Team

As Head of IoT & Monitoring Solutions, Corey will lead the continued development of Spencer Riley’s presence across cold chain monitoring, stationary monitoring, environmental monitoring, temperature compliance and IoT device markets.

His focus will be on strengthening client relationships and building a specialist team aligned to the technical demands of the sector.

“A year on, being promoted to Head of IoT & Monitoring Solutions gives me the opportunity to formally build the division. My focus now is on continuing to develop my knowledge and building a specialist team across global IoT and Monitoring markets.”
