Swinerton Seattle VP, Division Manager to Grow Company’s Healthcare, Life Sciences Portfolio
Nick Vovakes has been named vice president and division manager of Swinerton’s Seattle, Washington office. With over 20 years of experience in the construction industry, he is well-equipped to lead Seattle’s growing operations. His predecessor, Dave Worley, is set to retire in October after 21 years with Swinerton.
Vovakes was most recently operations manager, and since joining Swinerton in 2011, he has been instrumental in increasing the company’s healthcare footprint and provided leadership to expand the office’s existing target markets in Seattle. Under Vovakes’ leadership, the Seattle office will look to continue its momentum with mass timber, while also growing its presence in the healthcare market and expanding into the life sciences sector.
“We will focus on smart, organic growth, so we don’t lose that touch of family atmosphere, but we can branch off into some diversified markets and have a nice portfolio of work,” Vovakes says. “We have a great culture in Seattle. There are a lot of smart, fun, engaged people. We want to keep that strong culture but improve some of our processes to continue pushing our industry-leading services.”
