The DEN Asset Management program consists of three strategic pillars: Asset Data & Governance, Lifecycle Planning, and Infrastructure Reliability which includes elements such as Planning, Estimating, Scheduling, and Analytics, and Digital Facilities and Infrastructure. The successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to effectively lead teams, improve organizational governance through effective change management, deploy innovative programs, support continuous improvement activities, and promote operational excellence through world-class asset management practices.

The Senior Project Manager will report to DEN’s Senior Director of Asset Management and serves as a key leader within the Lifecycle Planning pillar, with strong integration across Asset Data & Governance and Infrastructure Reliability. This role translates asset data into actionable, risk-based investment decisions that protect infrastructure reliability, optimize capital deployment, and support Vision 100 growth.

Specifically as the Senior Project Manager you will:

Lifecycle Planning & Capital Strategy

• Lead development, maintenance, and continuous refinement of 3-, 5-, and 10-year lifecycle-based capital replacement and infrastructure investment plans, expanding toward longer-term forecasts as data maturity improves.

• Apply condition, risk (LOF/COF), remaining useful life, and performance data to prioritize capital and AM‑CIP projects, ensuring investments are optimally timed and financially defensible.

• Act as an advocate for lifecycle-driven projects by partnering with Finance, Design Engineering & Construction (DEC), Maintenance, and Operations to ensure recommendations move from analysis to execution.

• Support capital planning reviews for new construction, rehabilitation, and expansion projects by validating asset condition assumptions, scope completeness, and long-term O&M impacts.

Asset Performance, Data Integration & Governance

• Lead and mentor a multidisciplinary team responsible for managing asset lifecycle information within DEN’s centralized CMMS and related enterprise systems, including asset onboarding, warranty tracking, condition assessments, and lifecycle costing.

• Ensure asset assessment and performance data is validated, decision-grade, and governed, and integrated across CMMS, BIM, GIS, and digital facility platforms.

• Partner with Asset Data & Governance teams to enforce asset standards, acceptance workflows, and data quality expectations throughout the project lifecycle.

• Translate complex asset and infrastructure data into clear, strategic insights for executive leadership and enterprise stakeholders.

Infrastructure Reliability & Innovation

• Identify asset performance risks and recommend capital or operational interventions that reduce unplanned failures and improve levels of service for critical systems.
