Director, Engineering Infrastructure & Asset Strategy

The Coca-Cola Company•Atlanta, GA

3d•$150,000 - $172,000

About The Position

The Director, Engineering Infrastructure and Asset Strategy is responsible for developing and governing the enterprise strategy for engineering infrastructure and facilities assets across The Coca-Cola Company’s global portfolio of primarily owned properties. This role focuses on asset lifecycle strategy, capital planning, and technology enablement, ensuring infrastructure investments are risk-based, data-driven, and aligned with long-term workplace performance and business needs. Reporting to the Senior Director I, Global Workplace Platform Strategy & Operations, this role serves as the primary subject-matter leader for engineering and asset strategy, translating operational realities into clear, actionable strategies that inform enterprise decision-making. The Director operates upstream of execution, setting frameworks, standards, and investment logic that are delivered through CBRE as the global execution partner. This role is not accountable for day-to-day facilities operations, safety program execution, or performance reporting. Instead, it enables those outcomes by providing clarity on asset risk, lifecycle needs, capital priorities, and the technologies required to make faster, better decisions—consistent with best-in-class Fortune 100 workplace organizations.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering discipline.
8+ years of experience in facilities engineering, infrastructure operations, or asset management in large, complex portfolios.
Strong operational background with demonstrated progression into asset strategy and capital planning roles.
Proven experience using asset data to inform lifecycle and investment decisions.
Deep understanding of MEP systems and critical infrastructure.

Nice To Haves

Master’s degree in Engineering, Facilities Management, or Business (MBA).
Experience in Fortune 100 or similarly complex global organizations.
Familiarity with outsourced FM models and global partners (e.g., CBRE).
Professional certifications (PE, CFM, FMP).
Experience shaping (not just operating) digital asset management strategies.

Responsibilities

Develop and maintain the global engineering infrastructure and asset strategy for owned properties, including MEP systems, life safety infrastructure, controls, and critical building systems.
Define asset lifecycle frameworks (design life, renewal timing, replacement strategies) that inform long-term planning and investment decisions.
Establish asset criticality and risk methodologies that support enterprise-level prioritization.
Ensure asset strategies are aligned with the Senior Director’s global workplace operating model and performance outcomes.
Lead development of long-range (5–10+ year) capital plans for facilities infrastructure, globally.

Support the Senior Director in enterprise capital governance by providing fact-based insights and scenario analysis.
Define the evolution of the asset data and technology strategy required to support lifecycle planning, risk visibility, and faster decision-making.
Identify and advocate for targeted investments in tools such as CMMS/IWMS enhancements, asset data models, condition assessment technologies, and analytics platforms—only where value is clear and aligned with enterprise priorities.
Establish a roadmap for improving asset data maturity, moving from static reporting to predictive and scenario-based insights.
Partner with IT, Digital, and Data teams to ensure solutions are scalable, integrated, and aligned with enterprise architecture.
Develop and maintain global engineering and asset management standards consistent with Fortune 100 best practices.
Influence design, major renovations, and recapitalization decisions to ensure assets are maintainable, resilient, and lifecycle-optimized.
Ensure standards enable safety, compliance, and continuity requirements without duplicating program ownership.

Executes within the strategic direction, operating philosophy, and governance model established by the Senior Director.

Ensures infrastructure strategies proactively address safety and resilience needs.
Aligns asset strategies and capital priorities with operational performance insights.
