Greenville Tool & Die Company is a designer and builder
of high quality metal stamping dies (or tooling)
primarily for the making of automobile parts. These
dies are used to make parts for most major automobile
manufacturers worldwide.
Greenville Tool & Die was formed in 1946
and until recently was a privately held corporation.
The company is now a 100% employee owned ESOP
corporation.
The two foremost career opportunities offered at
Greenville Tool & Die are Tool and Die
Maker and Tool and Die Designer. Each requires
completion of a 4-year company sponsored and U.S. Dept.
of Labor registered apprenticeship training program. A
specific and formal program of on-the-job training in
conjunction with more than 30 credit hours of related
instruction from Montcalm Community College is
required. The company pays the tuition and fees for
this coursework for apprentices in good standing. Tool
and Die Maker is a hands on career position in the plant
arena building the stamping dies to very close
tolerances many to within thousands of an inch. Tool
and Die Designers use the latest CAD software (CATIA) to
design the dies. The company has a few individuals
trained in both expertise.
Offshoot opportunities from these two career paths
include CNC Machinists, CNC Tool Pathers, Computer
Programmers, and IT personnel. Most of the company’s
supervisory and management staff are “grown from
within.”
The Cooperative Vocational Education Program or “Co-op”
has been the company’s most important source of future
employees since the 1950’s. Entry level candidates
should possess a strong math background, computer
familiarity, and good mechanical aptitude, teamwork
skills, and soft skills.
High skills offering comparably high wages. The
industry is forecasted to have a shortage of skilled
entry level candidates in the future.
