Ferguson guided Posh to four wins from five games and they are top of the early table.
The London Road outfit have dealt particularly well with losing last season's top scorer Britt Assombalonga to Nottingham Forest in the Championship.
The other nominees for the award were Graham Alexander of Fleetwood Town, Chesterfield's Paul Cook and Steve Cotterill of Bristol City.
