What You’ll Do

 

Denver International Airport (DEN) is the third-busiest airport in the United States and one of the top ten busiest airports in the world, connecting our community globally through flight and business. DEN is the primary economic engine for the state of Colorado, generating more than $36.4 billion for the region annually and employing nearly 37,000 people. At DEN, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive and equitable workplace. We celebrate individuality and uplift all races, ethnicities, gender identities, national origins, ages, abilities, religion, and LGBTQIA+ communities. We know that our diversity makes us stronger, and we strive to keep diversity, equity and inclusion at the center of all that we do.

 

The Design, Engineering, and Construction (DEC) division is the primary delivery arm for design and construction projects at DEN. The Facility Design and Construction department within DEC manages over $350 million worth of design and construction projects of DEN’s built environment annually including buildings, systems, and equipment.

 

DEC is approaching the execution of these projects with a renewed focus on building infrastructure and systems to ensure operational continuity, reliability, optimization, and efficiency. To this end, DEN is looking for an interdisciplinary Supervisor of Facility Projects who brings a depth and breadth of technical proficiency; critical problem solving, communication and facilitation; financial acumen; stewardship; and an ability to invest in the success of the project managers, engineers, and architects who represent the project delivery team. This supervisor will oversee projects managed by both DEN and contract staff.

 

The DEC Supervisor of Facility Projects performs supervisory work over project managers and professional engineers or architects, and implements, and evaluates engineering plans, work processes, systems, and procedures to achieve annual goals and objectives, and makes budgetary and resource allocation decisions.

 

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Directs and evaluates the work of professional engineers or architects and associated personnel, provides technical expertise to staff, and establishes staff work programs and project objectives.
  • Participates in preparing revisions and updating the department’s engineering or architectural standards, monitors and evaluates the efficiency and effectiveness of program delivery methods and procedures and recommends policy/procedure revisions.
  • Establishes conceptual design and construction schedules, monitors progress of the projects managed by the project managers in the group and their conformance to schedules, specifications, and regulatory requirements.
  • Resolves sensitive, controversial, and complex technical problems involving staff, stakeholders, consultants, and contractors.
  • Assists in developing and managing the budget for the unit/section and allocating funds for projects to accomplish yearly goals and objectives.
  • Develops or modifies work plans, methods, and procedures and determines work priorities.
  • Assigns and distributes work, reviews work for accuracy and completeness and returns assignments with recommendations for proper completion.
  • Resolves problems encountered during daily operations and determines standards for problem resolution.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate technical ability based on at least 10 years of practical experience, advanced knowledge and understanding of various building infrastructure systems and equipment. This understanding may be based on either design, construction, maintenance or operations experience with these systems and equipment. The Supervisor can evaluate design and construction options in terms of operability, maintainability, sustainability, and cost-effective performance over the potential life of the design solution. Further, the Supervisor can articulate the most preferable choice to stakeholders of DEN, through written and spoken communication, business case demonstration, technical briefing, or project presentation. The Supervisor isn’t the final technical expert on any building type, building system, or single piece of equipment, but rather will apply a broad lens of technical acumen to every project managed by the Supervisor’s group.
