Bellevue-based GLY Construction has named Tyler Tonkin as its new president and CEO, effective Oct. 1, the start of the company's new fiscal year. Tonkin will succeed Steve Hoffmann, who is retiring after 30 years with the company. Tonkin joined GLY in 1998 as a field engineer after graduating from Central Washington University in 1995 with a degree in construction management. He advanced to senior project manager and became a principal in 2010. In 2020, he was appointed to GLY's Executive Committee, where he has served as both executive vice president operations and a principal overseeing large, complex development projects. Throughout his career, Tonkin has specialized in healthcare and life science facility construction. His portfolio includes the award-winning Allen Institute project, a research institute in Seattle, and Overlake Medical Center's Project FutureCare in Bellevue — a multi-phased, 6-year campus renewal project successfully delivered throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Most recently, he led Vulcan's three-tower West Main development project covering a half-block in downtown Bellevue. Tonkin will continue to lead select projects in his areas of expertise. He will also continue to serve on GLY's Executive Committee with executive vice president Bill DeJarlais and chief financial officer Joe Bonacci.
