The Bohemians boss is one of six nominees for the prestigious award which will be presented at the Aviva SWAI Annual Banquet in Dublin on Friday, 15 January.
Three of Fenlon's managerial counterparts, Michael O'Neill, Paul Cook and Liam Buckley, are also short-listed, as are strikers Gary Twigg of Shamrock Rovers and Sligo Rovers' Raffaele Cretaro.
The other main award of the night is the Goalkeeper of the Year which will go to Brian Murphy, Chris O'Connor or Darren Quigley.
